2) About 1 mile east of the cut,
Last marked, and about 2 1/2
miles from Hardsburg,
there is a second cut. West of
this cut the fine grained sand
with vertical worm burrows is
seen again. = When Birdseye of
Lima? A similar rock is seen
at the cut.
3) About 1/2 mile east from the
last cut, the exposure of same
rock similar to the one ea.
lithologically and the fossils
appear similar to those at
the main cut 1 1/2 miles E of Har-
dsbury, but I found no
Trisuckle as a Dalmanella
but collected some fossils,
immediate above is coarser
grained limestone. The
absence of Plect and Limestones
at all of these cuts is note-
worthy.
4) Further east the rock exposed
resembles that below the Lathes
again. Not carefully exam-
ined.
Wasm Rly. Cut south of station
20ft clayey section with thin limestone
layers, at top is fine grained coarse-
grounded, in several layers, small space
separated by clay. Dalmanella multirada
to creamy rock at top. Collected clay.
Plat. Amphipus longipes? Callophora acutiloba
9 1/2 ft clay both soft and chalky varieties,
interlaced. Then coarse limestone
2 1/2 ft thick. In this I meet no usual
Dalmanella multirada?
Cristellaria florida
Streptomena wayssoni? Clearis, canum.
at Plect in this exposure, 1 mile N of
Wasm Rly.
Plect nitens about 9 ft below heavy
coarse grained clay in the St. Margaret's
limestone formation.
Coarse grained L. section of 18 ft
with rather massive beds, overlaid by
the inner bedded layers.
Section from RR at Williamstown,
down to river side.
27 1/2 ft from RR down to first hard exposure
9 ft rather coarse L. Exposed.
8ft to lowest L. with St. Margaret's
20ft clay shale + clay rock Collected =
Goniodus SS. A large another section,
20ft fine type limestone than on place
during, some of clay rock into her soft,
weathering fine soft clay.
