July 31—1919, Wednesday. Cor Head. The wind howled all night but we are secure behind our wind break built of logs. Every now and then it rained. This morning there is no sign that the wind is to let down soon. We reexamined the Corl Core side and the Phyllographer zone. Clent found at least two places here with Reed mountain prints. An orthid, two called cephalopods and a tail of a trilobite. The first thin redded mass, going into contact in a distant core gives an idea of a thick 500 foot log and about 20 foot thick. On closer view one sees that after deposition it has been broken up by faults into three or four and slightly offset independent masses. The curious feature of these once called thin red beds—eye lets lie, separated by dark green shales in that they have lenses of intraformational coal over at for 2 to 50 foot long and for an inch thick to 30 inches thick. Further once the thin redded lies give evidence of churning up in the sea, the intraformational coal ones not made by washing of semi-exposed samples but by storm waves turning up the bottom and redepositing them; on this mass there are also good pieces of black chalk an inch or two thick. Pieces of this chalk are common in the intraformational coal. The fossils are as rule flat and once inches long but there are also angular bits, pieces of it are first seen, that these pieces were still unconsolidated when seen in their first nature, and when bent are often crooked to accommodate the bending. Blocks of these intraformational coals are not rare in the Corl Head coal. The next diphen mass is of a similar character about 20 feet thick and several hundred foot long. This mass is characterized by large 1 mm thin tuts vertical in the lie, with the tuts usually filled with coal minute grains, like
