Comment:
...on the side of an arroyo, washed out in 1908. The bones and specimens were for the most part undisturbed, though the individual skeletons were confused, until examined and collected by Mr. Nelson. The exact site by map could not be ascertained, but is either on or near Section 11, Township 31 S., R. 24 E., but may be from Sections 2, 3, 10, 14 or 15 of the same township." Piece count on card is "1," but description is for "pieces." Photo: 15-4989. Published: A.A.E. XXIII 1, Pl. 3.
