c murum. Stroph. retusta rare.
About 3^o above base are Stroph.

7\frac{1}{2}^o Sandy clay limestone with
Hebertella in sculpita rather
scattered at top and the rest of
the fossils meted above in
the remainder of the section below.
35^o of exposure containing good
limestone layers. Stroph.
planumula occurs 15^o down
=23^o belov top of H. insculpta
18^o Below top of H. in sculpita was
found single Dalmanella jugra.

From 23 feet below H. insculpta.
Hebertella sinuata is chief fossil.
