143 August 13-1918. Tuesday Table Head. As there are marked discrepancies between my measurements of the section at Table Head when compared with Richardson and D. J. T., we concluded to re-measure all of it this morning. We thuse returned to the first notch of Table Head about 2 miles north of our camp and first measured down in the section from the Beelmontian-Chazy contact; and later up in the section to the Paron sandstone. It was then seen that Richardson Beelmontian gave 2 said to be exceeded can now be more determined, and that the Chazy thickness was un- derestimated.

I collected from the fault rocks country camp
