This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1895 edition. Excerpt: ...one-half miles northeast of Port Jervis, while the grits appear along the Neversink river, especially southeast of Huguenot. The Esopus formation gives rise to narrow, rough ridges, which at times suggest the presence of possible step-faults, but this fact is not certain. To the north, the Esopus slate passes under the alluvium of Neversink valley, north of Huguenot. The Helderberg formations reach their greatest development in the region just north and south of the boundary line between New York and New Jersey, and their thickness is considerable. The following section is shown in Bennett's quarry (Barrett, 1878): Tentaculite limestone, 30 feet. Favosite limestone, 4 to 6" Lower Pentamerus limestone, 50" Delthyris shaly limestone, 175" Upper Pentamerus limestone, 250" Oiiskany sandstone, 100" Esopus slate, 500 to 800" This entire section is not exposed in the face of the quarry, but is included in the ridges to the west, between the quarry and the railroad. The fossils are abundant in nearly all the layers, and a full list has been given by Barrett. The upper portion of the Upper Pentamerus is noteworthy on account of being crowded with trilobite remains. The relation of these beds to the Oriskany has been suggested by Barrett and demonstrated by Beecher. They form the crest of the ridge known as the Trilobite ridge, in whose southeastern face the quarry lies.f Between Bennett's quarry and that east of Cuddebackville, there are few outcrops of the Helderberg limestone. There is a good exposure of the shaly limestone at a point just south of the intersection of the roads from Shin hollow and Huguenot (77). It strikes N. 40 E., and dips 60 W. (540 feet A. T.) Fossils are not uncommon, especially Stpirifer...
