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.
