Iron Ridge Mo. Sunday July 19-91. Started out early for the ex- posure discovered last night. Picked up quite a number of fossils. Was directed to a place near by back of an abandoned corral to the debris fallen from a well. The amount of ground was small but very prolific in brachiopods. The other classes of fossils are rather rare at this locality. In the afternoon the Hotel Keeper Mr. P. H. Rholinger drove me over in his wagon to a quarry in the Ridge about 3 miles to the north of Iron Ridge. He said I would find 'petrified hickory nuts' here.
