"Dark-blue shale crl| with interbedded fossil beds, and some-
times sandy lenses (the latter always very thin, 1/6 to 1/8 inch).
About 15 feet thick. Near only one for Linfulella.
A little lower saw 2 specimens for Linnaromia?
Keith during the morning discovered to the
north a new locality for what looked like a
morning place for Highgate fossils. The sample,
hemself there, had large trilobite fragments and
a large orthid. Are therefore concluded to go out
this afternoon to see the place.
The place is marked (5) on map. It is about 2
