Claremore, Tuesday, March 25 - 1919.
He left at 7.15 a.m. At Broken Arrow we are at the "Ter-
minal Bluff" of the Big Zone, and is the town the last of the
Fort Scott. We are now in the Arkansas Valley. East and south
of this place there are none of the Pennsylvania lines. All
have gone run into holes or sandstones. We are at Broken
Arrow at 9.15.
A few miles N.E. of Broken Arrow there is a little
col mine (coal 3 feet) between two members of Fort Scott li.
Over the coal there is a blue clay followed by the upper li. of
the Fort Scott.
At a place 8 miles east of Broken Arrow we come upon a
li. and from proofs, see the lot. Meyer said he saw it connected
and Continental. There are two small Archaeoidavians,
directly
above this li there is a sandstone gone, then blue holes, and at
the top beneath the Fort Scott li., another sandstone. McCray
tells me that the Cherokee here is about 700 feet thick. Some
between the upper and lower Charksee
S.E. the formation splits and 400 feet of sands come in and
start farther southwest beneath the Cherokee there is still
another 100 feet of sandstone.
by then according to
S. end of Section 23, 187. 16 E. There is a fault ridge
line.
To the over the strike dips normally to the W, but to the S.E. the
strike dips 12 degrees and then flattens out immediately
to the north there are several oil wells
of that fault ridge
and along the strike there are more faults. This faulting was done
