WEST VIRGINIA GEOLOGICAL SURVEY. 577 



A sample was collected from this coal, the composition 

 of which is given under Mine No. 254 in the table of coal an- 

 alyses at the end of this Chapter. It shows a high content 

 of both ash and sulphur. 



The John Beverage Farm Mine (No. 255 on Map II), on 

 the Right Fork of the Little Kanawha River, 0.7 mile north of 

 Cleveland, showed a thickness of 3' 7", with parting, as shown 

 by the section for Cleveland, page 75, its elevation being 

 1780' L. This mine is in the edge of Upshur, about 0.1 mile 

 from the Lewis Line.

The following table, giving a list of oil and gas wells that 

 record Upper Kittanning Coal in those regions where its hori- 

 zon lies under drainage, shows that this coal does not occur 

 with such frequency as to be classed as a minable seam in 

 those regions except possibly along the Upshur Line in por- 

 tions of Skin Creek and Collins Settlement Districts. Another 

 table gives the probable amount of this coal, for the area out- 

 lined on Figure 10:
