the top a bottom all seen (will go nearer. Beginning at the lake shore and all the way up to the railway bridge and beyond for more than one mile through a thickness of not less than 400 fut one remains em- tantly in soft blue shales. In the lower 200 fut there are very few limestone and the fossils are accordingly scarce, I saw nothing that would yield diagnostic in the lower 140 fut but at the railway bridge are for an undoubted Orodolopsis philadi formus which joins these beds to the Richmondian. Undoubtedly the Bryozoa only of the same. In the next 200 fut more than reded limestones appear but the shata are still decidedly dominant in blue shales. In those upper 200 fut fossils are more common, Kieft bryozoa and four Hirabro of which Camptochia radiata and Orodolopsis ementriica are the common forms. One philadiformis always turns up but in reality is as rare fossil. There is also a large Lepidesma and finally a rounded Otenranta (? Pectunculus)
