The section is interesting from the fact that the Quakertown coal 
appears here, after a long interval, in which no trace of it is shown. 
The mine was opened in 1882. Its coal goes out by the Cleveland, 
Lorain and Wheeling R’y. 
Justus MINE. 
The Justus mine, No. 2, is located near Justus, in Sections 14 and

The quicksand proved troublesome and expensive in sinking the 
shaft. The seam is undulating, but not unsteady. The hills rise 35 
feet above the swamps. Horsebacks do not occur in the body of the 
basin. The dip is to the south. ‘The face is said to be N. 7° E, a de- 
viation from the general direction of N. 20° to 380° E. The 
roof is dark, gray rock, no slate being thus far found. ‘The coal rests 
on a fire-clay floor. Thetop of the seam is more splinty or longer
