Thursday Aug. 6-91,
Collected today in various
quarries all in the lower Trenton
limestone and green shale.
Packed up my fossils so
that I can get away early to-
morrow morning.
Made an agreement with Mr
Larger a young quarry man for
two dollars that he will pack and
send two very large specimens of
Orthoceras to Prof Schoch of
the sections in small book
of the locality.
