1) Trunculus, Dalmanella multisecta.
in thin clayey limestone slab, found at
R R level, also a strychnous interior
of flat shell believed to a crushed
Raphinesquina. Plectambites
occurs also, 81 ft from R R level to
top of exposure while next layers,
(in fact nearly all) were collected.
Dalmanella crummi is true lime
stone about 20 ft above R R. Exact
length at which it comes in is
not known.
2) Stryaena gillbosa & Dal. emaculate
begin a short distance above the
crass limestone in the stop
cut 4 mi. N of station, 11 ft above
top of crass limestone believed to
be Catleys. This part of section,
3) The total thickness of Catleys appears
to be about 25 ft. Above this is
2ft clayey stuff with clay shale &
a little thin limestone; total about
20 ft thick. In this section
appears D olus and a multisecta.
Stryaena gillbosa. The Truncule-
nus and Raphinesquina
declining appears to signify here
also. Above this is coarse
grained limestone with Dalmanella
multisecta & Plectambites
for 36 feet at least. This part of
section does not resemble that of
Catleys but Whica free cast
of Saint Pleasant,
Boyd- Berry,
4) Bridge over men at Boyd, leading
to Colemanville & Corinth,
in the Catleys Cyclomema varices
sum is rather charming.
5) Catleys passes up well south of
Boyd, where it has been exter-
narily quarried.
6) 1 mi. S of Boyd, up road running
beneath R R, is strongly curved
twisted limestone like that
at Carthage. Above this is
fine grained thin bedded clay,
criss crossing clay and this side
contains trypillemus' gaster
pisdo as does the side at Car
Carthage. Section looks quite
different from that at Boyd.
Dalmanella farther up the
hill side.
Several excellent lamellae-
branch slabs of cut vitated
limestone series.
The cut vitated limestone delays
below the more regularly bedded
limestone of Catleys as exposed
N of Boyd,
7) Farther south clay works
with Dalmanella & Plectam-
bites is at R R level for long
distance. D'atiles crummi.
Itchabella resembling breakers
of olus join section found
