April 22, 1908 Wednesday.
Called on Stace to explain my last summers from Deomian Gishay Mountains. The Gishay of Hancock is 750-180 feet thick. I showed him that there is no fault beneath it but an ancient unconformity.
The shale horizon above the Reedcraft he had placed with the Marcellus.
Lee called on Hovide. Showed me a drum of large Strocynella, some 4 inches across. There are from S.E. Alaska. See his recent paper in a black little siliceous limestone.
The Swelft Megalonus horizon has the huge Lependitias. Probably a new genus of Megalonus. Offer Deomian in S.E. Alaska.
Ordovician with Macdunn (1/4 in., it did) are a Hochifrod perlamund in appearance but fine striate. He called it Zysthorica but it looks to me my different. Also called it Parambruti but to me the same as the Zysthorica. Horizon may be about late Chazy.
Kewand Peninsula seems to have both Ord, and Sil. The strata of Pal. geuthere may have an up turn in Pal. section.
