Rusland at 5 P.M. and at Castleton at 5.30. About two miles west of Castleton Reith on his way to Rusland stopped us. He said he had a good day fishing at Lowan Cumbria slota. He gave me some Lingadella not of the L.C., that he got 2 miles (? A. M.) of Fair Haven, H. I see no reason why Lac (17) of maps may not be Beelmontown. It is a thiers series of very thick laddled ool. interbedded with limestone. All one then and on overthrew surfaces are decidedly bandled. In the ool. we sees our fossils but all of the limestones are apt to show crinoidal fragments and tiny ones and then there is a layer with calcite in somewhat cir- cular masses as drawn out. These support Raphis- ting and other part, with large umbilicus. Since these shells are thick this may be reason why they close are preserved in these intensely squeezed out flown matrices. While we cannot prove that the beds are Beelmontown yet what evidence there is, is that they are of this age. Stopping at The Maples. Castleton, H. Sep. 28 1922. Karodag.
