shaly zone about 3' thick containing brachiopods suggesting the Bob. As the Bob red zone is exposed on a small branch above the mull. I imagine this quarry is in Decatur limestone. I am wondering if, Lobelville, Decatur and Bob, are one and same thing having lateral shaly facies and coral facies

[[left margin]] [[image - geologic sketch of 5 layers. Beginning at top layer to bottom noted to the right of each layer as follows: 'E', 'D', 'C', 'B', 'A'. Inside each layer beginning with the top, text corresponding to height of each layer & text correlating to the layer as follows:
E 38' [[vertical]] Decatur plus coral zone? [[/vertical]]
D 14 - 15' Bryozoan zone?
C 25' + - May = Uncirinlus[[guess]] zone Like it lithologic-ally
[[vertical bracket to left connecting B and C layer with text 'Beech River]]
B 55'

[[/left margin]] 

A-Dixon exposed at s end of bluff at turn by old storehouse and occupied house.

B. 55' mostly limestone resembling to small fragments (shale). In lower 15' saw Pisoiriners and small hemispherical corals. At 21' found [[underlined]] Plectatrypa [[/underlined]]. Limestone beds up to a foot thick from occasional ledges. At 55' comes heavy-bedded gray ls. 

C. - About 25' of massive limestone forming a bench. This is probably Basslers Eucalyptaerinus zone.

D- purplish shaly weathering limestone alternating with greenish shaly limestone and with harder layers that form ledges. 14'-15'. Most of corals seen weathered and lying on slopes were derived from this layer. Found Rhipidium here also

E- Hard massive limestone to top of hill and forming a flat top. Limestone is cherty and contains many crinoid stems. Decatur ls?
