Has some minute fossils and crinoidal material out of the Doggerne, nearly all are bryozoa but cannot identify any. Collected one of this fauna the next day. Has some genuine Scapanella fossils and saw Spirigra gregii and the elongate Pentremites. All are in a bad way. Holds that the Boggz shale is an invading formation from the east across the unexplained surface of the Autneddle one. The Boggz has the Orewoda little fauna. Limestone crinometes are said to appear in the Carey. Franks crinometes not so old as assumed and not of the time. But a series of limestone crinometes that interfine join into the Boggz. Those come from the south - the higher land - and are the shore deposits moving into the marine Boggz.
