Om Naide quarry 6' of Dev. overly 
the Renss. bed. The top has 
much pyrite and is covered by 
an 1 1/2" of green clay or shale. 
The roof of the two addits on the 
W side of the quarry is just about 
the base of the Missippian. Bed 
above Renss thickens & Thins - on 
N side Qy it is 6' thick, at tunnels 
it is 8-10' thick. The beds overlying 
it are thinner-bedded, cobbley or 
nodular with thin shale [partings?]. 
These are the beds that produced the 
few crinoids found. 
Saw a loose piece of earthy Is 
with small favosites of alpenensis 
type. Top of Dev with breccia in 
places; chocolate brown. 
Bed above Renos is granular 
in places, but it is mostly dove 
ranging from light to chocolate
