October 21. Left Dalton about 8:30 AM and went through gap just NE of city. Here saw redbeds said to be Moccasin - Lowville. The beds however are very coarse and sandy and are rather massive. They were suggestive of Sequatchie rather than Moccasin.
Followed Georgia 201 over to Villanow. East of Villanow about 2 miles saw some red beds but no good section.
Went west of Villanow on Georgia 143 marked [[encircled]] 2 [[/encircled]] on Catlett sheet. About 2 miles W of Villanow saw long section in Siturian capped by Chattanooga shale. Still farther west through Maddox Gap is another long section extending down to the junction of Ga [[encircled]] 2 [[/encircled]] (143) and Georgia by. 95. At the junction occur red and yellowish mudrock, thought by BNC to be Blackford. For about 0.4 mile east in the field are in succession dove ls. followed by yellow shales with thin lining bands with Sowerbyella and Piondoma. Above these are yellowish Moccasin mudrocks, possibly 275' in all. Up the hill are Sequatchie red beds.
