SECOND ANNUAL REPORT—-STRATIGRAPHIC GEOLOGY. 
117 
Local Details:—On the west bank of Choctawhatchee River, about 
one mile southeast of Redbay, there are numerous exposures of bluish- 
gray Miocene marl which probably have an aggregate thickness of 
over thirty- feet. The slope above the outcrops of marl is covered by 
sandy loam, and shows scattered boulders of ferruginous sandstone 
resembling the sandstone of the Lafayette, observed ’ elsewhere in 
Walton County and in some of the counties to the eastward. The 
marl at this locality is rather clayey and contains many fossils. The 
following species 1 were collected on the ‘"Anderson” farm. 
Locality:—Bluff, John Anderson's farm, one mile south of Red- 
bay, Florida. 
Turritella variabilis Conrad. Crassatellites melinus Conrad. . 
Dentalium attenuatum Say. Chama \areinella Linn. 1 (Jackson 
Area staminea Say. bluff var.) 
Pecten cf. eboreus Conrad. Cardiumacutilaqueatum Conrad. 
Pe'cten madisonius Say. ’Venus rileyi Conrad. 
Horizon :-^Miocene—Jackson’s bluff, Coe’s mill, upper bed of 
Alum Bluff,' 
Miocene shell marl was encountered' in a well drilled for the 
Southern States Lumber Company near Cantonment. A complete 
log of this well was furnished ffy Frank Sutter, driller, but unfortun¬ 
ately the samples of materials penetrated is incomplete. In a ‘"green¬ 
ish clay” at a depth of 500 feet, the following fossils 2 were obtained. 
Locality:—Oil boring of Southern States Lumber Co., midway be¬ 
tween Muscogee and Cantonment, Escambia County, Fla. 
Sample 500 feet from surface. 
Conus pygmacus Reeve. 
Area idonea Conrad, young. 
Lucina chrysostoma Philippi. 
Venus campechiensis var. quadrat a 
Dali. 
Macrocailista maculata Linn. 
Cardium robustum Sol. 
Geologic Horizon:—At least two horizons are represented, one of 
which is Miocene. 
Locality:—Oil boring of Southern States Lumber Co., midway 
between Muscogee and Cantonment. 
The fossils listed below were obtained in a fifty-foot bed of ""green 
sand" at a depth of 670 feet. Another sample was obtained in a 
“green clay” from a depth of 890 feet. This sample contained several 
fossils.
