Then examined the Lorn Baptand seen on
Satudae. Before getting to the sections one looked at
a conglomerate mass that may be basal to the
Lorn Baptist. Pethles many of lie, and small
signs of to a foot long rounded to subangular. These
lie reminded one of the Ordovician. Some Ostra-
culite marginal pieces also present. One pettle
had from prints, a small Lingulella and piece
of trilobites, reminding me of Upper Cambrian or
Ordovician.
Then looked at the great conglomerate in the
Lorn Baptist thought by Blanchard to be "basal"
Baptist. How the blocks are all large many for
furniture or more
and nearly all of criminal limestone. There
of the Permians signs
are also other prints, and so pettles for that
eros. According this conglomerate is a kind
of intraformational conglomerate since all the fossils
any Lorn Baptist time, due to prints and
one small boulder. This conglomerate must have
formed at the base of a cliff, and in thickness
according to Blanchard
vary from 10 to 300 feet. The Lorn Baptist -
"Tremor" unconformity seen yesterday had no basal
conglomerate at all.
