Along Oat creek, just west of the alluvium of the Sacra- 
mento valley, are a series of low hills, composed of little 
consolidated material, which are interesting since they contain 
vertebrate remains and other fossils. The locality is near 
Black's station on the railroad to Colusa. Tin- place was vis-

collected. An elk antler three and one-third feet in length. 
pine cones, decomposed wood of more than one sort, a tooth, 
and some shells, were found in place. 
The shells were referred to Dr. W. II. Dall, of Washington,

to Recent, and are all found living in the same region. 
In the higher hills west of these early Pleistocene strata, 
silicilied wood and fossil bones are said to occur. A large
