[[top margin]] 82 [[/top margin]] [[strikethrough]] These beds here with the massive gray limestone [[basalt?]] the chert are irregular. [[/strikethrough]] Oct 31 1879 In coming up the canon noticed several illustrations of the errosion of the Silurian beds and the deposition of [[Sandstone?]] etc. prior to the [[insert]] deposition of the [[/insert]] massive gray limestone. Also local curvatures of the upper portion of the Siluvian strata. Remeasured the chert bed three miles above using a line 105 feet + 75 feet by Locks level. = 150 feet. There are not as many fossils at this front as below & the transportation of [[strikethrough]] limestone [[/strikethrough]] chert [[/strikethrough]] + the [[/strikethrough]]is less than at previous section. The chert is light colored weathering blackly. [[end page]] [[start page]] [[top margin]] 83 [[/top margin]] Sections of the massive limestone above the chertbed near where the Lower [[Kanab?]] springs issue Arizona. The upper portion 250 feet was measured with Locke level. The remaining portion with the line & a short distance with the level. 1 shaly, [[insert]] gray [[/insert]] limestone with pink chert and intercalated arenaceous layers. [[right margin]] 255 [[/right margin]] 2 Massive light gray limestone with some evenly bedded cherty layers near the summit. also at 200 feet below a band of cherty layers intercalated with this limestone.
