emic Stream, through a low and narrow pass, and then down the 
Seboois Stream to Howland, thence to Argyle where it crosses the 
Penobscot at Olamon Island, and thence takes a straight course to 
join the main kame in Greenfield. The chief feature of this kame 
is its east and west course at its upper extremity, and its crossing the 
Penobscot valley two or three times. Length about 70 miles. 
IX bx. A possible branch of the Katahdin kame found along 
Soper Brvok, north of Ripogenus Lake, in Twp. No. 4 R. 11. 
Length two miles. 
X. Clifton — Hancock System. 
A small kame, but instructive as being a fair type of the way the 
kames penetrate the high mountain ranges. It begins near Clifton 
P. O., runs for a short distance southward, then curves nearly east- 
ward, and shoots straight into a low pass in the Mt. Desert High- 
lands. This pass is 180 feet by aneroid, above Clifton P.O. After 
crossing the col it follows a valley southward into Otis, and probably 
beyond. Length about 20 miles. ‘There is another kame in Clifton, 
found two miles or more north-east of this one, and which may be a 
branch. 
XI. Moosehead Lake — Penobscot Bay System. 
_ Extends from Sand Bar and Hogback Islands in Moosehead Lake, 
south through a low pass in Shirley, then disappears for a few miles 
in Blanchard on a down slope of forty-five feet per mile. It reap- 
pears at Upper Abbot, and follows the Piscataquis valley to Sanger- 
ville, and then along the valley of Black Brook, past Dover South 
Mills, to the “Notch” in Garland, a remarkable pass through the 
range of hills which borders the valley of the Piscataquis on the 
south. A little south of the Notch it disappears for about a mile, 
then re-appears and continues south-easterly past East Corinth to 
near the north line of Levant where it turns south to Hermon Pond 
and thence through W. Hampden to Ball Hill Cove on the Penob- 
scot, then along the west side of the river (past Frankfort in the 
river), and through Stockton and Prospect into Penobscot Bay, near 
Fort Point. This system has no reticulated kame-plains of consid- 
erable size. ‘Three miles north of Hermon Pond it forms a broad 
solid ridge or pla, and just south of the Notch it has thrown out 
a parallel ridge or terrace. At Greenville and Dover South Mills, 
where it ison an up slope, it is a well-developed ridge. From the 
Notch south it has been under the sea and has been greatly modified 
by the waves and currents, and for most of the way has been wholly
