(See Map XII., No. 18.) 
The coal is quite high in the hill, and had formerly been mined at 
this point. All the higher hills should take the coal. By barometer the 
height of the coal above Caldwell is about three hundred and forty feet. 
From Sharon the coal dips pretty rapidly to the south, reaching the 
Muskingum River at Coal Run; but to the east there is very little dip. 
JACKSON TOWNSHIP. 
This township is situated in the south-west corner of the county, and 
borders Washington county on the south and Morgan county on the west.
