I regard the three coals near the bottom of this boring- as 

 the equivalents of coal numbered 5, 6 and 7 of the general sec- 

 tion, No. 5 being here a divided seam, and represented by Nos. 

 72 to 75 inclusive of the above record. They are all of suffi- 

 cient thickness to be advantageously mined, but the depth at 

 which they are found may prove a detriment to their i in me- 

 diate exploitation. 



At Mount Veruon a boring with the diamond drill penetrated 

 a seam of coal 5% feet thick at the depth of 546 feet. No de- 

 tailed copy of the record could be obtained.
