Dallas Texas. March 16-1925 With Heath Petersom entered into Kaufman county, east and south east of Dallas. The county rises over the Austin chalk, a light blue or dirty clay with harder chalk beds, and top extends along road about 5 miles east of city. An abundance here of Staphlo- sophia fragments; shells may have been fine for day. Saw Jaren anus latistus Ostrea crypta, otherwise nothing of value. Then over a long distance of lawn land large good cotton farms on the very thick Parasso, somewhere about 2300 feet thick. One mile south of Kaufman on the road side saw a large bedded sandstone thought to be the Argattot sandstone reflect with fossils. Baculites here, Exogyra costata, Exothyaca (Vaye), small Gondylus and may other Pierre fossils. See the lot collected! This sandstone is mistaken 400-600 feet of the top of the Parasso. Eight miles north of Kaufman near
