In the deep well the sandstone, four hundred and forty-one feet thick, 
struck at a depth of six hundred and thirty-eight feet, is, I have no 
doubt, the Waverly. The thirty-five feet of slate at the bottom of the 
_ well may be the top of the Ohio black slate (Huron shale), or, possibly, 
it is a slate interstratified with the Waverly near the bottom. A slate 
sixteen feet thick is found in the lower Waverly on the Ohio River, in 
Scioto and Adams counties. 
tron Ore.—Iron ore of excellent quality is often found in this and adja- 
cent townships. It is always in nodular form, and is derived from the 
disintegrated clay shales in the hill sides, from which it is washed out. 
Sometimes very large nodules are found. It is often difficult to trace the 
ore to its original bed, but where I have succeeded in doing this the 
nodules are too few to warrant drifting into the shales for them. Doubt- 
less other and better localities will be found where drifting may be 
profitably done. The following is an analysis, by Prof. Wormley, of a 
‘Sample of the ore from the farm of James Dutton, in this township:
