This horizon seems to be with the dawn of July 8. In the afternoon collected along the shore east of the Farrier fish houses to about half way to the Island Grove P.O. These fossils are mainly characterized by Rhynchonella philippina. July 3, Tuesday Grand Bayou Spend part of the morning on the M.E. shoals where called "Quay" type bits of the Basque can be seen. Also the conjugated beds. Fossils are exceedingly scarce. The conjugated beds appear as if fiddled much had been pushed causing it to curl and distort. The limestone bands are nodular. In the afternoon collected at the shore below Grand Bayou Grove house. Here there is still an Eotonia strong. Late collected at Little Basque but found very little. The contact of the Basque limestones and Basque sandstones are seen on the shore east of the little stream flowing through Little Basque.
