Rion fm's. Lot of manella testudinaris,
Pleasant-mills sericeus, Rafinesquina minnesot-
ensis, Theptilamma profundum, Lingula, Calymene
Homalonotus and Jortelus. There are probably
other things. All in all the horizon is atmr Black-
Rion time.
This is a great find since no one has hertofore
gotten any fossil out of it. I could see more 18"
atme the Highgate li, contact, and all because
of the decided schistosity.
The contact between the Highgate limestone and
Beajia was seen in five different places in atmr
one fouth mile along the strike N.-S. It cuts across
different levels of the Higfgate limestones. The highgate
slates seen in the Minisiquoi range must lie below or
to the west of them.
Over my Beed mountains and Chagz
fords are seen in the Dravton conglomerate, this
appears to show that neither of these serie was de-
posity in this area. Of course they are present in
the Champlain tmp't.
In at least three places we saw in hollows of the
Highgate limestone conglomerate comprised of the High-
gate limestones. Neither was the thickness as much
as one foot, followed by the Beajia slate.
