Finished the day at Athens about 1 mile northeast of the courthouse. Here we saw Apatomorphia zone which occurs on top of hill east of new quarry. The chert fossils between this zone and the Knox must be derived from the Lenoir as Valcourea was taken. The Lenoir in any event would not be very thick.

In morning visited section on Hiwasee River. Above Lenoir and below Athens comes an unknown thickness of shale which is overlain by some 12' of oolitic ls with black oolites. This is overlain by a foot of cream-colored granular ls. Christiania occurs in a sandy shale band in lower part of oolite.

In afternoon went to Riceville but this locality is now lost. Saw another locality of same beds only 150 paces from dolomitic a few miles SW of Riceville locality.

Drove to Chattanooga for night
