102 RECORD OF DEEP WELL DRILLING FOR 1904. [bull. 264. 
The coal at 1,219 may be the Lower Freeport or one of the Kittanning coals. The 
coal at 1,300 may be the Lower Kittanning or Clarion coal. Sandstone and shale 
from 1,438 to 1,496 is probably Pottsville, including the Salt sand at the horizoi 
assigned by Mr. Graham. The lower part cf the section has probably been cor 
rectly referred by Mr. Graham, unless it be in the case of the Keener sand, whicl 
he has correlated with the Siliceous limestone at 1,752 feet. The existence of a con 
siderable thickness of limestone below would indicate that this occurs in the Bij; 
Lime (Greenbrier limestone), and that the Keener occurs in the upper part of th< 
Big Injun immediately below 1,807 feet."
