Sept. 7th.

Worked the outcrop in McLean's valley found last evening. This will be outcrop No. 3. as shown in diagram on page 36. Found some very fine brachiopods here. 

Same species as found in No. 2. Exhausted the find then searched farther north and found another outcrop of fossils in a higher bed where small Lingulas were very numerous but many of them badly crushed. This makes outcrop No. 4 in McLeans Valley. Secured a lot of these fossils.
