138 STRATIGRAPHY THE CONEMAUGH SERIES. 



Here the upper portion of the sandstone is quarried, be- 

 ing massive, coarse, gray, medium hard, weathering to brown, 

 and splitting readily into large blocks. The quarry is about 

 100 feet long and extends about 30 feet into the hill. The 

 stone has been used for the basement beneath the auditorium 

 of the Glenville Normal School, and for general building pur- 

 poses. 



At the Fred Lewis Quarry, located north of the river and 

 just east of the mouth of Sycamore Run, at Glenville, the 

 upper 20 feet of the Connellsville has been quarried, being 

 hard, light brown and medium coarse, the top of the sandstone 

 having an elevation of 840' B. The quarry is 50 feet long 

 and extends 20 feet into the hill. This stone was used for the 

 basement and lintels of the Glenville Normal School. 



The Connellsville Sandstone has also been quarried on 

 the property of Mrs. C. J. Collins, on the west side of Syca- 

 more Run, opposite the Lewis quarry, having much the same 

 character as at the two places mentioned above. 



THE LITTLE CLARKSBURG COAL. 



The Little Clarksburg Coal of White 5 , belonging just 

 under the Connellsville Sandstone, has little extent or thick- 

 ness in Lewis and Gilmer. It is usually not found at all and 

 when present is too thin and impure for any economic use. In 

 Lewis a coal blossom was noted on a branch of Millstone 

 Run in Freemans Creek District, two miles northwest of Jack- 

 son Mill, at an elevation of 1225' B., that represents it. In 

 Gilmer, its blossom was noted at a few points in Center Dis- 

 trict. It shows under the Connellsville Sandstone on Grand- 

 camp Run of Cedar Creek, 0.6 mile above the run mouth, \y 2 

 miles southwest of Glenville. Another exposure noted was 

 as follows :
