"The Drapanella [illegible] should not be called
by the name as it does not lie at the base of the Penn.
But high up above the base, here are of shale. The
fossils of this limestone are unlike those of the true
Monns-Drapanella, though they appear to be of
old Pennsylvania time.
It seems to me that [illegible] has not demonstrated
that there is Cony deer in the Oosteen Archables, and
as the Caray carries no Pennsylvanian fossils, or
anything to suggest Penn., they should be classed
with the Tennesseean as claimed by Sirty. The
Cony deer rises between 1600 feet and about
3000 feet. Mr. Goldston will measure this
[illegible] when he comes to survey the part of the
Archables.
