In the central part of the township, the summit level is, for the most 



part, high above the plane of No. 6 Coal — the tops of the hills full 200 

 feet higher. Indications of th-« blick band ore were looked for in thes-^e 

 higher strata; but none wer ■ met with that can be considered encour- 

 aging. No. 7 Coal must occur considerably belo^v the general summit 

 level; but the only bed worked appears to be No 6.
