13-15 of his section to the YV refold limestone.* giving it a 
thickness of 50 feet. In looking over his notes previous to 
tyfritjn.g : .th is- paper it was ft dis£©vered that in passing over 
the section twice his barrxnreter gave different readings for 
the covered portion of the section between the two flints 
and. in compiling, the section the smaller reading was used. 
This was also^in accordance with the general appearance 
of the section. Even with the sides stripped as they were 
at the' time of our visit it was very difficult to realize the
