"These limestone strata in the Harrison
cliffs are the introductory lime series to the
Black River series. The first children Donald
and snails out because of the doing nature of
decorations but a February 10 and 20 fall.
Above come in 12 feet of Lowville
the characteristic milky-white birdseye limestone.
Some of the beds are dense creamy dull fac-
turing limestone interlaid with often flaggy
that an oreathing break down into a whole.
Had no time to collect fossils but those collected
by Forster yesterday are Black River-Trenton
forms. Just beneath these beds are still
a lot of bygone and Rhynochthoma near
incrustations, see any lit. I saw some sun-crookly
without transition there rests in the Low-
villa a darker granular hard limestone with
Colemanaria followed by a series of thin-walled
modular limestone separated by shales with
the Black River fauna. Of which Forster
measured at least 43 feet in the cut
300 feet long when the strata dip at an
angle of 10 to 20 degrees (see photos)."
