p. 26 "He [referring to Kirk} assigns collection 2688 to either late middle or early late Devonian. ..."Kirk describeds the Favosites in the Devonian fauna as a small digitate form."

(p. 27) "The zone of collection 2688 is characterized by abundant brachiopods that can easily be separated from the matrix. This zone, and all the underlying strata between it and the stromatoporoid zone, are of the thin-bedded facies of the Holitna Group."
