Moraines with Kaised Beaches of Lake Erie. 7 
‘None of the beaches west from the meridian of Cleveland 
show marked differential uplift, the height being only about 
20 feet greater at Cleveland chad in the extreme western end 
of the basin. The following table embraces the data at hand 
which have a bearing upon the crust warping in the eastern 
part of the basin along a line parallel with the south shore of 
the lake:

It will be seen by the above table that the beaches have 
slightly lower altitude 40-45 miles east from Cleveland than in 
the vicinity of that city, though there is but little departure 
from horizontality throughout this distance. [Further east there 
is marked eastward differential uplift. The data, it will be 
observed, are largely based upon caretul levels, either by vrail- 
way survey or city engineers. There can, therefore, be no 
mistake as to the uplift. The Locke level measurements are 
close approximations. The aneroid readings were carefully 
taken, but are liable to contain errors of considerable amount. 
The observations at Kingsville and Westfield need verification 
by careful leveling, as they seem to give the beach an altitude 
at these points inconsistent with the adjacent more refined 
determinations.
