Exposures. There are many fine exposures of the Ludlowville 

 shales on these quadrangles. The upper beds outcrop along Bowen 

 brook and the entire section or nearly all of it along Murder creek 

 north of Darien ; along Ellicott creek one and three-fourths miles 

 west of Darien Center, and along Spring creek and the Erie Rail- 

 road east of Alden. The middle beds are displayed in the bed of 

 Cayuga creek a mile south and southeast from Marilla Station. 

 At the fall in Buffalo creek at the Bullis bridge, 2 miles west of 

 Marilla, the exposure of the upper beds and the contact with the 

 Tichenor limestone is exceptionally large and favorable for the 

 collection of fossils, and the middle and lower shales are displayed 

 along the bed and banks of the stream to Elma and Blossom. The
