third Ohio River terrace, as described by White. 1 The last 

 thin deposits noted, which occur at a lower level, probably 

 represent the first terrace. These deposits are plainly visible 

 in the cuts along the Monongahela Valley Traction Company 

 line opposite Maxwell Run, where a thickness of 15 feet was 

 noted, the top being 1060' above sea level. 



Along the Little Kanawha River and its tributaries, de- 

 posits were noted at the following localities : 



These deposits all evidently represent the third Ohio 

 River terrace, showing a remarkable continuation of this ter- 

 race up the Little Kanawha, the last two deposits noted being 

 within six or seven miles of the source of the stream and about 

 140 miles from its mouth.
