"Division F" about the Light House
and east to the Jumper's lies in an un-
dulating, domed manner. It is only as
one approaches the Jumpers that the gne
F rises bringing to the surface the
top beds of Gne E. The undulations are
sometimes quite sharp but never of long
duration. In general the undulations do
not exceed 10 foot depth.
I saw several Eucalyptorellinus but all
were torn to bits away. But an entire
Gacastes (Phocids?) and a Calymene.
Brachiopods are the prevailing fossils. On
all the layers J. hemisphericum occurs. The next
common fossil is the Lependitia. Bryozoa
are rare and almost no Trepistomata.
Another peculiarity is scarcity of corals and
ccephalopods.
Could this Clinton have come into the U.S.
by way of the Great Lakes from the north?
At the Jumpers there is a shale layer like the one
at Ludlow Kentucky in the Trenton.
