Coal No. 6 is worked on this creek by Messrs. J. M. Garrett and Town- 
send Gore, at whose banks it is four feet thick. At Mr. Slack’s bank it 
shows the following section :

The coal is of excellent quality and makes a good coke, as it does at Mr. 
Closen’s bank, and also at Mr. Alex. Copland’s, nearer the river. 
The limestones of the section are strikingly alike in color and other 
features. They are gray in color, and weather into large and regular 
slabs about four feet square and one foot thick. They are fossiliferous, 
but the number of species is small and the specimens are badly pre- 
served. The clay under the flint is manufactured into earthen-ware by 
Mr. Minner, on Symmes Creek, and appears to be a good article, as the 
ware commands a ready sale, not only in the immediate neighborhood, 
but also in Dresden. The ore bed is the same as that already referred to 
in Jackson township, and deserves to be carefully tested. The sandstone 
over Coal No. 6 is coarse and sometimes conglomerate. A heavy con- 
glomerate appears, near Mr. George King’s, one hundred feet above Coal 
No. 6. 
Washington Township.—At Wharton’s coal works, and at Coal Dale, about 
two and one-half miles from Zanesville, we have the following section 
exposed :
