Report Of Progress In The Fayette Westmoreland District Of The Bituminous Coal Fields Of Western Pennsylvania The Ligonier Valley PDF Download

Excerpt from Report of Progress in the Fayette Westmoreland District of the Bituminous Coal-Fields of Western Pennsylvania, Vol. 1: Eastern Allegheny County and Fayette and Westmoreland Counties West From Chestnut Ridge At first sight, the topography appears to have been deter mined without regard to any law of arrangement; but the plan is so simple, that a single View from any one of the higher points, on Chestnut or Brush ridge, suffices to show the key to the structure. The whole surface is disposed in a series of benches, more or less disguised by erosion, whereby the details are rendered somewhat perplexing. The eastern boundary of the district is a bold mountain, known as Chestnut ridge, which rises to somewhat more than feet above mean tide.
