Extract

The principal specimens are several large slabs of brownish sandstone, bearing series of footprints in relief. Of the largest and most distinct series 40 to 50 footprints have been preserved, and are arranged in two rows, about inches apart. I may confine my attention in the first place to this series, as the most important of the whole.
