Wea. SUN. MARCH 14, 1909 Ther. Tuesday, Sep. 25 - 1928 Just south of the R.R. station Mystic there is a little kick of a limestone conglomerate. The petrfs are usually very smceee and of a dure colored ls. Saw fragments of fossils but for none that could be determined, What the Ord. age is one could not determine. In the shale beneath the little bridge just south of the station Clarke found an Aoprop- tus. Clark says it is close to Didymogonites caduceus. This appears to indicate the shale phase of the higher Beechmontan. As for the ls. engle maybe the basal zone of the Arkharian or zone above. On ly 5 in a straight line about 1/2 mile NW of the Mystic station occurs apparently to some ls engle as the one mentioned above. Where Mr Gentry had collected many fossils - Llopdia most common and lags, clear indicative of the Beech. Other fossils are Leperditia and Plectorthus. Evident a mixture of Beech. and gayser fossils, but the exact age of the engle.
