As above stated, the record of the Neodesha deep well was 
made out with great care from a study of samples of drill 
cuttings saved by Mr. Patterson. As this was entirely a 
prospect well, drilled by the Forest Oil Company expressly to 
learn what there was in that part of the world, we have every 
reason to believe the samples were kept with the greatest of 
care, and that probably they represent perfectly the forma- 
tions passed through. Should there be any discrepancy be- 
tween it and other similar well records, discrepancies greater 
than can be accounted for by changes of formations, it would 
seem desirable to look upon this record as the more reliable. 
A careful study of the verbal record in connection with figure 
2, plate XIX, shows that the formations passed through do not 
quite correspond with the formations exposed in Missouri, 
farther east. The 13 feet of shale below the Mississippian 
limestone, from 1119 feet to 1132 feet, is similar to some of
