Along the east wall of the valley north of Groton the general 
drift in areas consists prevailingly of washed materials in rounded 
knolls, and sometimes more strongly developed. This is espe- 
cially true in the vicinity of the loop near the boundary line of 
Tompkins and Cayuga counties. In this region, and for three- 
quarters of a mile east, the kame aspect of the drift predominates. 
Again, on the east wall of the valley near Locke (fig. 4) the 
highway leading to Summer Hill passes through very strikingly 
developed hills of washed drift. The topography here indicates

front waters. 
A mile or so west of Locke in the vicinity of Goose Tree the 
water-laid content of the drift is so conspicuous as to intimate 
conditions that produce the kame type of deposit. This may 
be said of much of the drift of this area, both south and west, and 
southwest to North Lansing. 
About a mile east of West Groton the front of the ice, in this 
broad divide area, offered the right relationship for producing a . : 
predominance of water-laid drift. The moraine band here for '
