The Anderson seam of coal, found less than a mile from this point, is 
forty-six feet above the top of this boring. Below the Anderson coal is 
the Cambridge fossiliferous limestone. By these strata we can judge of the 
distance down to the Cambridge, or Scott’s coal. This makes the lowest 
coal reached in the experimental well to be the Cambridge seam.
