1944

Late morning went to top of hill 1 mile to 1 1/2 miles NW of Cooperstown to see Mcclures Starfish locality. Found no starfishes. Bed appears to be high in the Skaneates.

On afternoon saw Portland Point in Hinman Hollow. Exposure beside the road at bend where road crosses stream.

Went opposite dam at Portlandville. Here new roadwork has made fine fresh exposures but collecting is poor. Storm - roller bed in lower Laurens well exposed.

May 28 - Moved over to Cobleskill for night. Went to Summit to see Vitulina bed and Tully. Vitulina 153' above road intersection with old quarry road or about 2313'.

Went to Mill Brook to see pebble bed. This was 229' above road & old road intersection or at 1309'.

Went to West Conesville and collected Rhipidothyris.

Transcription Notes:
Skaneates = Skaneateles? Looks like there is a Skaneates NY in the fingerlakes region - @meg_shuler
