collection of the late J. C. Sample,
of Perrysville, O., was presented by
Mrs. Elizabeth Sample. Mr.
D. S. Leech of Lima, Ohio, presented a
very wonderful specimen,
the effigy of a fish, found by Mr.
Leech's father many years ago.
Considerable attention has been given to
the Mineral col-
lections. Labels have been made giving
name, composition, local-
ity and uses of the mineral, as well as
the name of the donor.
It is proposed to form a collection of
the various minerals found
in Ohio and some progress has been made
in this direction. The
Ohio shales exposed along Paint Creek
have been examined and
fine specimens of quartz, pearl-spar,
barite and calcite in crystal-
lized form have been found, lining
cavities in concretions weath-
ered out of the Ohio shale. Pyrite and
marcasite have also been
found in the lower strata and this may
have been the source of
the nodules found in the mounds of the
Hopewell Group.
