Brief statement of problem and remarks (from collector):
Weber comments on transmittal sheet: "Both Emil Peel and Eugene Moores feel that this fossil came from the phyllites on which it was found lying. It is of the same lithology and had weathered out, apparently. However, they were unable to find any more specimens. They discount the possibility it may have been carried by a glacier but agree it might possibly have migrated downslope from the Cantwell formation to the north. For convenience's sake, I have assigned the fossil a number with my field designation for the year 1960 in which it was found. 60AWr60
