Mr. Menefee claims that the bed is entirely free from pyrites, and that 
neither streaks nor nodules have ever been seen. The entry has been 
driven only forty feet and has hardly reached sound coal, so that it would 
be injudicious to speak positively in this connection. The coal is quite 
pure, shows little tendency to break up on exposure, and exhibits no in- 
crustation of copperas on the outcrop. Fifteen feet below the coal is a 
bed of iron ore three feet thick, containing about eighteen inches of 
what has been pronounced a most excellent ore. A specimen was pro- 
cured for analysis, but, unfortunately, has been mislaid. At the time 
this locality was visited Mr. Menefee was negotiating for the sale of this 
bed to a Zanesville firm, at a royalty of thirty cents per ton. The deposit 
is evidently extensive, as it was traced from this point east and north 
through the township to the opening in Coal No. 6, belonging to Mr. 
White, on the road to Adamsville. The horizon is one at which ore is 
found at numerous localities throughout the coal field in the State, and 
the deposit here merits careful investigation. 
This is the most northerly point at which Coal No. 5 has been seen in 
the county, nor, indeed, has it been seen east or west of this township. 
Though identifying this bed with Coal No. 5 of the State section, I doubt 
the propriety of so doing, especially as there is no associated rock by 
which to prove its identity. It would seem more probable that it is an
