Pleimner and Morris report say that been exposed the Benge limestone, adja. followed on top by 100' of shale. The limestone is well exposed in the Wichita Falls R.D., just before it crosses the Brazos Bridge, At Ben Mountain the limestone is well up- exposed on the Brazos River side, at the base of the mountain. All is the shale to the top where then is a thin sandstone. Above the Benge li. is probably 100' fet of North Bend shales and sandstones. Nearly all of my fossils come from the upper 30 fet of blue clays. Also some few from middle darker shales. The species are the same; they are few of these from the darker shale. Look at Pleimner's report once more.
