Ammonites. Found one and Mr. Young
sawed one for me and 3 smaller ones!
I believe this is all that were seen.
A number found fragmentary Dinosaur
bones.
Prof. Knight has 6 or 7 claims in the
region, one of which shows bones 1000 ft. in
length. His main man is paid $5 to $12
per month. He was not spend this year
more than $200. I don't believe there
will be difficulty to locate bone locality,
but probably the best arrangement will be
to go partnership with Knight. The
expense need not exceed 750-1000 dollars
per year. The bones when taken out of the
ground are practically cleaned but require
glueing together. The expense to secure
a good Dinosaur collection need not
be expensive.
Saw Martin today of Gillistons party.
