  Museum. 
  

  

  paint 
  mine 
  190 
  feet 
  and 
  at 
  Warren 
  200 
  feet 
  u 
  This 
  is 
  assuming 
  

   that 
  they 
  are 
  the 
  same 
  rock, 
  and 
  from 
  my 
  examinations 
  of 
  it 
  I 
  

   believe 
  it 
  is 
  the 
  same 
  horizon. 
  The 
  red 
  shale 
  and 
  the 
  green 
  

   rock 
  resemble 
  that 
  at 
  the 
  other 
  localities 
  very 
  closely. 
  The 
  

   difference 
  in 
  the 
  intervals 
  is 
  not 
  surprising 
  when 
  we 
  consider 
  the 
  

   distance. 
  

  

  Should 
  this 
  prove 
  to 
  be 
  the 
  red 
  rock 
  assumed 
  the 
  conglomer- 
  

   ate 
  must 
  be 
  the 
  Pope 
  Hollow 
  rock. 
  From 
  the 
  nearest 
  exposure 
  

   of 
  the 
  Panama 
  conglomerate 
  the 
  rise 
  required 
  to 
  bring 
  it 
  up 
  to 
  

   the 
  conglomerate 
  would 
  be 
  forty-five 
  feet 
  per 
  mile. 
  This 
  is 
  

   fifteen 
  feet 
  per 
  mile 
  greater 
  dip 
  than 
  I 
  have 
  observed 
  anywhere 
  

   in 
  Cattaraugus 
  or 
  Chautauqua 
  counties. 
  The 
  rise 
  of 
  the 
  Pope 
  

   Hollow 
  rock 
  from 
  the 
  same 
  outcrop 
  would 
  be 
  only 
  fifteen 
  and 
  

   one-half 
  feet 
  per 
  mile, 
  but 
  the 
  interval 
  here 
  between 
  the 
  Panama 
  

   rock 
  and 
  the 
  Pope 
  Hollow 
  rocks 
  is 
  greater 
  than 
  usual. 
  

  

  In 
  view 
  of 
  these 
  facts 
  an 
  absolute 
  conclusion 
  can 
  not 
  be 
  drawn. 
  

   It 
  will 
  require 
  a 
  few 
  days' 
  work 
  over 
  the 
  interval 
  between 
  Red 
  

   House 
  creek 
  and 
  the 
  rock 
  city. 
  This 
  done 
  I 
  think 
  there 
  would 
  

   be 
  no 
  difficulty 
  in 
  determining 
  the 
  question 
  without 
  chance 
  of 
  

   error. 
  It 
  seems 
  to 
  me 
  probable, 
  however, 
  that 
  the 
  Salamanca 
  

   rock 
  is 
  of 
  the 
  same 
  horizon 
  as 
  the 
  " 
  Pope 
  Hollow 
  conglomerate." 
  

  

  In 
  regard 
  to 
  the 
  map 
  work, 
  I 
  have 
  about 
  finished 
  it 
  on 
  both 
  sides 
  

   of 
  the 
  Tuna 
  creek 
  as 
  far 
  north 
  as 
  Windfall 
  -run, 
  one 
  mile 
  north 
  of 
  

   Carrollton 
  and 
  running 
  about 
  three 
  to 
  four 
  miles 
  east 
  of 
  the 
  Tuna. 
  

   West 
  of 
  the 
  Tuna 
  creek 
  to 
  one 
  mile 
  west 
  of 
  Red 
  House 
  creek 
  the 
  

   work 
  is 
  nearly 
  completed, 
  and 
  also 
  south 
  of 
  Red 
  House 
  creek 
  two 
  

   miles 
  south 
  to 
  the 
  Alleghany 
  river. 
  I 
  also 
  covered 
  considerable 
  

   territory 
  upon 
  the 
  lower 
  part 
  of 
  Quaker 
  run. 
  All 
  of 
  the 
  higher 
  

   hills 
  will 
  take 
  in 
  the 
  Waverly 
  south 
  of 
  Red 
  House 
  creek 
  and 
  also 
  

   along 
  the 
  Tuna 
  creek 
  nearly 
  as 
  far 
  north 
  as 
  the 
  Alleghany 
  river. 
  

   I 
  think 
  there 
  may 
  be 
  a 
  small 
  area 
  two 
  miles 
  southeast 
  of 
  Sala- 
  

   manca 
  but 
  am 
  not 
  positive. 
  It 
  is 
  2260 
  feet 
  A. 
  T., 
  and 
  to 
  determine 
  

   its 
  horizon 
  it 
  will 
  be 
  necessary 
  to 
  either 
  get 
  a 
  measurement 
  from 
  

   the 
  Panama 
  or 
  Pope 
  Hollow 
  rocks 
  or 
  find 
  fossils. 
  Bald 
  mountain, 
  

   one 
  mile 
  south 
  of 
  Limestone 
  (section 
  C), 
  seems 
  to 
  be 
  high 
  enough 
  

   to 
  be 
  capped 
  by 
  the 
  Olean 
  conglomerate 
  but 
  I 
  did 
  not 
  find 
  it. 
  

   As 
  it 
  is 
  some 
  distance 
  south 
  of 
  other 
  exposures 
  of 
  the 
  Olean 
  

   conglomerate 
  it 
  may 
  be 
  concealed 
  below 
  the 
  summit 
  (2321 
  feet).
