  the 
  gate 
  posts 
  of 
  the 
  cemetery. 
  The 
  compact 
  portion 
  of 
  the 
  

   stratum 
  is 
  sometimes 
  curiously 
  cellular 
  in 
  places, 
  the 
  cavities 
  

   being 
  long 
  and 
  variously 
  branching, 
  as 
  though 
  due 
  to 
  the 
  

   removal 
  of 
  some 
  concretionary 
  masses.

   The

  of 
  these

  are 
  mostly 
  on

  of

  The 
  most 
  noteworthy 
  feature 
  in 
  the 
  composition 
  of 
  these 
  

   Oneonta\beds

  to

  the

  So 
  far 
  as 
  I 
  am 
  aware 
  no 
  one 
  has 
  observed 
  the 
  remarkable 
  

   similarity 
  in 
  lithological 
  characters 
  of 
  this 
  formation 
  and 
  the 
  

   so-called 
  "Krainenzel" 
  which 
  abounds 
  throughout 
  the 
  upper 
  

   Devonian 
  of 
  Germany, 
  especially 
  at 
  the 
  ]ower 
  horizon 
  of 
  these 
  

   beds, 
  and 
  which 
  the 
  writer 
  has 
  also 
  observed 
  and 
  described 
  in 
  

   the 
  lower 
  Portage 
  or 
  Naples 
  beds 
  (a 
  corresponding 
  horizon) 
  in 
  

   the 
  town 
  of 
  Naples, 
  Ontario 
  county. 
  This 
  is 
  not 
  merely 
  a 
  hap- 
  

   hazard 
  resemblance. 
  The 
  " 
  Kramenzel 
  " 
  is 
  a 
  rock 
  composed 
  of 
  

   small, 
  gnarly, 
  confluent 
  or 
  detached 
  argillaceous 
  concretions
