Summary

• Photograph of Tyler slate 200 paces south of the center of section 21. Shows drag due to a fault in which the west side (distance in picture) has a normal strike and dip and the east side (foreground) is dragged to the north and overturned giving the appearance of an anticline turning over to the north. The foreground and the massive stuff in the background are massive graywacke.
