To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The coal is shaly, in soft layers, intermin- gled with streaks of mineral charcoal, especially remains of Calamites. It is overlaid by a thick bed of grayish soft shales, containing fossil shells, in a poor state of preservation, especially a species of Lmgula, In the upper part of this bank of shales I have found also a specimen of the bark of a Sigillaria, of the same species as some fossil trees found at Blairsville, in an erect position. The section of the strata over- lying this coal is : ...FEET. INCHES.
Covered space, tops of the hills 70 Limestone without fossils 2 Shaly sandstone in bank, . 5 Grayish, yellow, soft shales, with plants and shells 21 Coal 9 Fire-clay 2 On the Mackaddo creek, eight miles north-east of New Harmony, two thin beds of coal crop out near the bed of the creek. The lower one, six inches thick, is covered by black, coarse, micaceous, sandy shales, passing to sandstone, and fall of broken remains of plants. In ascending the creek, the strata, above this coal and sandstone, give place to a soft, buff-colored, fossiliferous, shaly sandstones, intermixed with streaks of limestone, or passing to a bank of limestone.
