along the flank of the anticline. East and west of Bledsoe it rests on 

 lower formations, the amount of unconformity being greatest eastward, 

 as already shown. 



At Baker the uncon- 

 formity may easily be 

 recognized. North of the 

 station (locality 5) the 

 Black shale rests on 17 J 

 feet of Louisville lime- 

 stone. At the quarries 

 southeast of the station 

 (locality 6) the Black 

 shale rests on the Wal- 

 dron shale. Near the 

 northwestern end of the 

 quarry it rests on the full 

 thickness of the shale, 8 

 feet, but near the eastern 

 end of the quarry only 

 on the lower half. 



At Goodlettsville the 

 Black shale rests on about 

 the same thickness of 

 Louisville limestone as 

 north of Baker Station. 



Along the road to Ash- 

 land City, west of Whites 

 Bend, the Black shale 

 rests usually on variable 

 thicknesses of Waldron 

 shale, and where this is 

 absent on the Laurel 

 limestone. At the old 

 quarries, 600 feet west of 

 John Suell's house (lo-

 is absent and the Waverly

 Laurel limestone. At the 

 large quarry, along the 

 road farther eastward, the
