Saturday, 22 July. Morris Landing, 1/2 mi. above Nor- man's Landing. [illegible] A comparison of the next two notes indi- cates a fall of layer G of 88 1/2 ft. toward E in going 1 3/4 miles. Base of Black Shale 508.5 About 4 mile E Morris Landing towards mouth of Falls Creek, the layer G is found at water's edge. This is about 1 3/4 mile from next section. Base Black Shale 597. Section west of Morris's Landing, just E of sharp bend where Comber- land river turns N, near Leadville, section above this not measured. Abundant shale. 4 ft 9 in. crystalline limestone with chert. 27 1/2 ft. greenish sandy shale with phosphatic nodules at base. Black Shale. 39 ft with nod- nules at top. Contact with Mad-i-son apparently confirmed. 2 2 ft. of Madison bed a-one grained bed. Ripple marks in Madison N 10 E. Saturday cont. Just above Thomas Branch on E side of river is Madison bed dipping N 60 W. The Madison bed here is a thin bedded sandy limestone, the thin beds however hang together must lying separated by crazy courses. The thin bedding shows up beautifully in cross-section. Ripple marks 1 foot below Black Shale. N 49 W. Black Shale rests on Madison bed directly. No lizzard or Clinton. Ripple marks strike in various directions in upper beds of the Madison beds. These direc- tions change for sound to make it with difficulty to record them. Just below the mouth of Thomas Branch, The Madison beds rise going north west and still further south-west they dip north westward again. All the dips near Thom-as Branch are merely dips of strikes as seen at their exposed edges along the river bank which here runs about N 30 W. North west of Thomas Branch, about 1/2 mile the top of the Black shale with caracteristic nodules is found 99 X feet above river, estimating the thick- ess of the Black Shale at 39 ft. the base of the Black Shale is found at 60 ft. above water edge. The massive Madison beds are found at the base of the section at the mouth of a creek. West of the creek the highest part of the whirling thin- bedded Madison is found at 25 feet above the water's edge. The missing part of the section is unknown. Stanley
