The roof includes laminaj of coal, some of them composed of the bark of Sigtllaria catenotdes, also an erect Stffillaria rooted in the coal below. The coal and coaly shale exhibit remains of SiffUlan'a, Cordnites, LepiKiopht/Uum, and Cyperitea; and one layer has many hard pyritizcd fragments of wood. The mineral charcoal has vascular bundles of fems, coarse scalnriform tissue, and porous tissue.

This coal contains a great variety of tissues, especially bast and scalariform of different kinds, and epidermal. My measurements in this part of the section differ somewhat from those of Sir W. E. Logan, who, I suppose, had not a good opportunity of examining the two coals. The coal '29a is now mined by an adit from the shore, called the " New ; (Sandstone and shale. One sandstone has m
