Sep. 1. Spent Sunday in Port Colborne. In the afternoon I drove to some Corn. farm ex pons about 2 miles west of the village. The out crops are equivalent to those of Le Roy and immediately under the Ranals farm locality. Favorite canade- sin are Argyrospore and Lophyphyllum abundant. Cup Coral rare. The beds below the coral beds which Shentlpy regards as the same as the Onondaga were seen to-day to contain beds of white hard Compact sand becoming limy and lime in the stratified beds. Of the sandy layers there are probably not more than 4 to 6 feet grading into a compact thin reddish limestone which may be the alfer Rutulini or the belm up for trail present. In place.
