11. E of Kiddville near mouth N Fork.
Feruginous bed = 1½ feet thick.
Contains Streptaphyca sub.
plana, about 1½ feet above
Strephelasma layer.
The feruginous layer is overlaid
by 8 in class of limestone. This 5
feet consisting chiefly of thin
rift clay with a few thin linsen,
at one crosses, more frequent
near top. These are overlain
by 5½ feet of thin limestone
with thin clay partings, thicken
til never as to merge into the
clay (5 feet) beneath. There
thin limestone furnished
the middle stone of more
seemingly sections. At the
top a one of these beds is about
4 inches thick + some contact.
12. About ¼ mi, N of level.
Dig 18 feet in & steps East on
West side of creek.
Barny Christian well shown.
Massive clinton 5 ft.
Softer layers between 2 feet.
Massive limestone ½ foot
6½ feet unknown.
Very finegrained purple material
mixed up in a finegrained
limestone. This layer at a
numerous of places contained
large crinoid heads, identically
well shown, also some stephelia,
cross on plana and vegetations
abundantly.
Overlying this bed is a sandy
layer with more lay crinoid
beads, poorly shown, we found
not exactly one inch across.
Also Streptelasma 4½ in dig
the clay.
Above is thin clay and then
the thin limestone seen in
last section. This shows the
formation of the (le) wood
line? This part is exposed also
on N side of creek, it occurs
higher in the section than the
dig towards West on other side
of creek would warrant.
