Section at Waverly road leading N. from Court House at Burkesville, 116 ft. of Waverly shaly limestone. (about 2 ft. above base of this series) fossils are very abundant. 40ft. Waverly shale. 2ft. harder calcareous shales with fossils, 38ft. darker Waverly shale. 134ft. clayer limn limestone. 14 ft. Waverly clay shale. 28ft. Black Shale. 3ft. greenish grey clayer shale. 2ft greenish brown phosphatic lithary rock. 159ft. Lower Silurian (Court House about 52 ft above the river. a number of silicified Lamellibranchias (mussel of natives) collected by the natives show that the fossiliferous beds occur there, but their exact distance from the Black shale was not noted. Tuesday Aug. 1, '99. Packed up, leaving boat in charge of mill owner. Paid $25.35 as my share of expenses. Wednesday Aug. 2, '99. Work stage, Burkesville to Glasgow. Good road as far as Willor Shade. The Lower Silurian is exposed as far as Willor Shade, just beyond Miller Shade the Black shale over lies it. The elevation of the face of the Black Shale = 133ft. corrected barometric measurement below the elevation of the post office, Court house square, at Glasgow. The elevation of the depot is probably a little above that of the P.O. but the difference is surprised out to exceed 10-15 feet. At Marantine there is a fossiliferous layer in the same Silurian only 11 feet below the base of the Black shale. A fine piece of silicified wood was shown me as coming from thence. Glasgow = 780. Base Bl Sh, at W.Sh. = 630? Thursday Aug. 3, '99. Took train to Glasgow (opposite then to Boarding green. Confined to lounge al most entire time,
