The top coal is a poor cannel; the other is slaty, and contains much 
pyrites throughout. The sandstones are coarse, and in some layers con- 
glomerate, with pebbles as large as peas. Coal No. 7a is worked also by 
Mr. G. Beal in section 2. It there shows the same characters as at Mr. 
Ford’s. , :

Near the village of Liberty Mr. T. S$. Luccock has made a boring to 
ascertain whether any available coal exists below the surface at that 
locality. He obtained the following section, beginning about twenty feet 
below Coal No. 6: ;

Coal No. 2 of the boring is Coal No. 4 of the general section, and is 
seen in the bank of Wills Creek about one mile west of the village, on 
property belonging to Mr. T. 8. Forsyth. It there shows a thickness of 
one foot at the outcrop, but becomes two feet at a short distance in the 
hill. The gray limestone rests on it, two feet thick, and full of Spirifer 
lineatus. It is missing in the boring, but as it occurs in separated blocks 
the drill may have passed through a crevice. It is not, however, persist- 
ent, for on the property of Mr. R. R. Miller, four miles north-east from 
Liberty, the coal is found twenty-eight feet below Coal No. 6, and sepa- 
rated from it by lead-colored shales, no limestone being present. At 
Mr. Miller’s shaft the coal is five feet thick, and there, as well as at Mr.
