For the present this top of the leavy bedded li appears
to me like a diadem primity. The fossil don't appear to have.
On this demmably surface and filling its de-
pression comes in about 12 foot of evenly bedded and
vary thin and thick bedded dark limestone that
has some cemented earth but are clean from li.
within intense yellows. On the subfaces and in this
very thin interbedded shales occurs many Treprotonata,
hardly any Forestellidae, erimidal ossicles and
stones, and many brachipoda. I saw nothing
here that could not be regarded Pennsylvanian.
Several species of large Productus, a crassof striate;
large Aluya, Hustedia momomi, Puprax etc, Spinifera
cemerata, Orthotichia resupinoides, etc.
This part of the Marble Falls than continues above
other li not more exposed with much erimidal
material and the thick bedded cliff mad in li. The
whole of the li series is just about 100 foot thick here.
We are then over of the stream one-half mile
where the Marble Falls at the top introduces Hard shale
with interbedded thin limestone. It is the transition zone
due to the Smithard Hard shale. One of the thin
li is literally made up of marked graniolites beautifully
sculptured with several my lines. See the several
plots.
