The upper coal, No. 5, of the section, is the representative of the 
Quakertown seam (coal No. 2), occurring here about 60 feet above the 
Sharon coal. Both divisions of the Connoquennessing or Massillon 
sandstone are seen in this section. This represents fairly this immediate 
district. 
The coal appears to good advantage in the Lake View mine. It 
yields only one-fourth of nut and slack, the slack exceeding the nut in 
the proportion of 3to 1. Sulphur runs low in most portions of the 
coal, but there are parts of the mine where it becomes excessive. The 
face of the coal runs N. 25° EK. Its mean thickness is 4 ft. 6 inches. 
The coal is partially cut out by intrusive sand rock and shale in many 
places, but the normal cover of black slate is generally present. 
The average composition of the Lake View coal is shown in the 
following analysis (sampled by F. Keffer) : 
Coal of Lake View Mine (Lord).

The Steese mine, also known as the Summit Coal Company’s mine, 
has been an important one, having a present daily output of 150 tons, 
but its area is nearly worked out. It is connected by a branch line 
with the Valley Railway. In all general characters it agrees with the
