Another Favositae bed. Cocks not or perhaps as below. Shales with zones of gastropods, cleefords and Trigonia? These are scattered throughout but are only abundant at the middle and base. Limestone Ordnite. < du fruits, S. shemardi bed. < Min furcation here one frid. < 18 ft above mou frid. < 36 ft above base many fossils, like that fig 11 in this place. Also two fine Trigonia's come from here Ordnite beds might have life < One problem the limestone seems gass. but its Cocks along had here for 450 yards, Shale can be seen of lower Hils for 30 yards. I have no doubts that the shales are in due up to the Ordovite, 120 yards beyond the 240 yard place where Cocks are still present."
