"The Medina thickness is therefore great but as the Clinton here is practically like the Medina there is from a greater thickness here. It seems to be the Lehigh & P section now again only that there is less conglomerate here, but more sandstone and possibly less shale. Looking Ries' report and the Lehigh & P sections. Further along the railway towards Pat Furns one sees considerable out crops of Lalivia age. These are covered sun-cracked and marked by fine ripples (wash-brand) and large irregular ones both indicative of very shallow water. Left to New York at 6.30. Left for New Haven at 8.10. Home 10.30 P.M. End of Barrell trip.
