Cannon Falls Tuesday August 18. Started out early and drove six miles S.S.E. to Mr. Harriso farm. Along the hill back of his house are several exposures in the Salina shale horizon. Fossils numerous and well preserved. Mr. Losfield found 22 specimens of a Camarella which may prove to be new. This species is restricted to a small area and came out of a profit as none were found elsewhere. Picked up a very fine specimen of IleƤensis. Then collected at a place about 9 miles S. of Cannon Falls in the Salina shale at a some- what higher horizon. Gastropoda abundants.
