above base of Pennsylvanian, except almost nothing. see the small list. Soyer Jennings at these Papines and Montura and the few things gotten today. In the afternoon we passed our consideration left around exposing the basal Comanchean coarse sandstone rock and gray jasper conglomerate. The soil of this Comanchean looks like red clay and I surmise that this clay may be the residual Permian left beneath the Comanchian. I saw little of the Hunter, Loganville, Pinta and Antrovelle. In the latter saw a number of Ophites and one endstone of Camerosaurus. The red Pinta looks somewhat like a granitic limestone in its laminated bedding. Has a hard encrustedly fracturing limestone that appears to have much gray fine sand in it. The Antrovelle is a dolomite grime grain.
