the measures are concealed partly due to their being
clear where. The floor one sandstone like that
of Black Point. Here I saw a good leaf in outline
of Cadaitz and a poor impression of what I
took to be Lepidodendron ( the one or common
in the coal dumps at the Jiggins Mine, it has
square leaf bases). A similar Lepi was seen
by Bell at Black Point.

Cove. Partly one out shales are in here.
Then immediately to the south are picked up in the
lead prices of limestone with London Products.
As it rained hard at 4 P.M. we had to quite
cave. Stopping at a farm house just at Mill Cove
we learned that part limestone prices are to
be seen at low tide and as his land has
silt in it, with gypsum on another farm
one inland it is evident that the London
series comes in just to the south of Mill Cove.
Leemans section begins less than one mile
south of this point.
