Dentals notes
As dental notes are more detailed I only report his notes
does.
“Beginning at the west end of the frarels and going south-
west along the shore of Bay St George successive lower beds of the Bell-
manum appear all dipping about 20°N, 20°W. Below the upper
155 feet of B. studied northwest of the frarels on July 6 can here ex-
plained 1058 feet of similar strata composed of alternating
lighter layers with light banding and hearing darker layers.
These beds form a belt 920 fathoms wide stippled across the strike.
Here we began to study the sequence going from in the series as
we went on toward. The series continues without much change for
an additional 201 feet, consisting of dolomite in lighter and darker
beds alternating, the lighter more then bedded than the darker.
Ripple marks are seen at various levels. Some crinoids present.
Cryptoagra are well developed.
In some of the layers.
Choran & red layers of intraforma-
tional conglomerate with fairly rounded pebbles, some of which are
snicks lay. Bathstords are oft to occur in the layers with Crypto-
gra, but more are seen in the lighter banded dolomite.
“ This makes a total of 1413 feet below the Chazy. There are
come on 20 feet of hearing bedded and more reddish dolomite
with kuriononia cephalopods and many specimens of Rellingsella
This is a well rounded faunal zone. Below this the dolomite
series continues for about 180 much like those above but with
a tendency to joint and reddish color [To Johnchurch away
