13. Paint Creek.—Professor Orton (Second Geological Survey 
of Ohio, vol. ii, pp. 653-655), briefly describes one of the most 
interesting results of glacial action, occurring upon Paint 
Creek, about 5 miles west of Chillicothe (see map). Paint Creek 
to the southward, cut through precipitous cliffs. This post — 
glacial gorge is about three miles long, 300 feet in depth, ane 
not over 200 feet wideat the bottom. Immense kames stretch — 
across the old valley from the North Fork, especially near Cat 
ail Run. Some of them are at least 200 feet above the - 
poet flood plain of the creek. Near the summit of these 
mes pebbles two feet through are interstratified with 
coarse sand, and granitic bowlders three feet in diameter rest 
upon their summits. A few rods above the junction of Cat 
ail Run is a gravel deposit facing Paint Creek and 140 feet 
high, enclosing immense kettle-holes. For four or peed ' 
miles up Paint Creek there continues to be a terrace from
