No traces of corals have been met with. The fossils consist of very 

 sharp silicified casts and impressions in small stones of but few ounces 

 weight, many of which appear to be somewhat water- worn, and often 

 exhibiting a concretionary structure. These stones are ])rown on the 

 outside, and of a light brown, cream or white color within, often par- 

 tially of a porovis chalky appearance. 



Associated with them are numerous nodules of partially translucent 

 finely granular quartz. In the latter no fossils ever occur.
