End of glen or valley, entering boun-

Clinton.
->9 ft below Clinton is highest Spange.
18ft sandy decayed Madison.
Mst Spanges are found now
at the top of the fossiliferous expo-
sure. If the base of the banded
Madison is 15 feet below the Clinton,

probably still beneath the spange
layer.
The thickness of the richly fossilif-
ous Richmond section was not
measured. It equals about 5 feet
as near as I can remember. One
stray Columnaria was found, pre-
sumably C. abecata but no record
was made.
Further along the track Columnaria
halli occurs 17 feet below top of
richly fossil. Richmond section.
