Sep. 16
Collected all day in the Majara in
the quarries on the top of the "Mountain"
bach of Hamilton. The grapholite
are all from the Majara and from
tele above the Majara shale. The
grat majority are from the Chest beds
and the "House building limestone" im-
mediately below also gave some. They
are difficult to get and can only be
secured when the quarries are in direction.
Purchased four specimens of this one,
in the quarries.
Later in the day collected on
farms on the top of the mountain
among the Chest jettles. The fossils are
the characteristic Majara species but
the preservation is not good. The
highest chest beds yield sponges and
there are small coral shell, flint.
Visited the Hamilton Association
museum and found one Diogenuma.
Also called on Mr. A E Walker,
and examined his Majara sponges.
