  There 
  are 
  but 
  few 
  outcrops 
  on 
  the 
  hill 
  to 
  the 
  south 
  

   of 
  Franklin 
  Station, 
  its 
  slope 
  being 
  well 
  mantled 
  by 
  the 
  drift. 
  

   However 
  on 
  the 
  summit 
  of 
  .the 
  hill 
  one 
  mile 
  south 
  of 
  the 
  station 
  

   .is 
  a 
  ledge 
  of 
  thin 
  bedded 
  olive 
  to 
  light 
  gray 
  sandstone 
  which 
  

   splits 
  into 
  quite 
  thin 
  layers 
  at 
  the 
  surface 
  but 
  thickens 
  as 
  the 
  

   unweathered 
  part 
  is 
  reached. 
  A 
  small 
  excavation 
  has 
  been 
  

   made 
  exposing 
  four 
  and 
  a 
  half 
  feet 
  of 
  the 
  ledge. 
  There 
  is 
  an 
  

   occasional 
  fossil, 
  fragments 
  of 
  Brachiopods 
  and 
  ? 
  Cladochonus 
  

   sp., 
  which 
  indicates 
  that 
  the 
  top 
  of 
  this 
  hill 
  is 
  in 
  the 
  Chemung 
  

   formation. 
  

  

  A 
  section 
  based 
  upon 
  barometric 
  readings 
  has 
  been 
  con- 
  

   structed 
  from 
  the 
  level 
  of 
  Carrs 
  creek 
  at 
  B 
  1 
  along 
  the 
  creek 
  

   valley 
  to 
  C 
  1 
  near 
  Franklin 
  Station 
  and 
  then 
  to 
  the 
  top 
  of 
  the 
  hill 
  

   south 
  of 
  the 
  station. 
  Without 
  making 
  any 
  allowance 
  for 
  the 
  

   dip 
  which 
  would 
  increase 
  rather 
  than 
  diminish 
  the 
  thickness 
  of 
  

   the 
  rocks, 
  it 
  will 
  be 
  seen 
  that 
  from 
  the 
  top 
  of 
  the 
  Oneonta 
  red 
  

   sandstone 
  B 
  2 
  to 
  the 
  top 
  of 
  the 
  hill 
  C 
  5 
  south 
  of 
  Franklin 
  Station 
  

   there 
  is 
  a 
  thickness 
  of 
  547 
  feet. 
  Or 
  from 
  the 
  base 
  of 
  the 
  railroad 
  

   cut 
  B 
  4 
  , 
  two 
  miles 
  northwest 
  of 
  Maywood, 
  which 
  is 
  in 
  the 
  Che- 
  

   mung, 
  to 
  the 
  top 
  of 
  C 
  5 
  south 
  of 
  Franklin 
  Station 
  there 
  is 
  a 
  thick- 
  

   ness 
  of 
  485 
  feet. 
  The 
  top 
  of 
  the 
  hill 
  C 
  5 
  south 
  of 
  Franklin 
  Station 
  

   is 
  near 
  the 
  same 
  elevation 
  as 
  the 
  top 
  of 
  zone 
  A 
  6 
  on 
  the 
  hill 
  south 
  

   of 
  Maywood 
  which 
  was 
  also 
  referred 
  to 
  the 
  Chemung, 
  and 
  it 
  

   seems 
  hardly 
  probable 
  that 
  C 
  5 
  extends 
  to 
  the 
  top 
  of 
  the 
  Chemung. 
  

   This 
  section 
  along 
  the 
  N. 
  Y. 
  O. 
  & 
  W. 
  railroad 
  indicates 
  that 
  for 
  

   Sidney 
  township 
  the 
  Chemung 
  formation 
  has 
  a 
  thickness 
  of 
  more 
  

   than 
  500 
  feet.
