north of the river are all carried beneath the shales of the 
high escarpment to the south by the nionoclinal fetid. 
The East Fork of Point Remove creek has its source near 
the monocline in 10 N., 15 W., and flows to the southwest and 
parallel to it for ten miles where it is entered by a small 
stream llowing from the southwest. Rock creek, which enters 
Point Remove creek, in 9 N., 17 W., near the east line of sec- 
tion 3.3, comes from t-he northwest along the line of disturb- 
ance. 
The Red river monocline at the south combined with th^e 
Clinton monocline at the north, with its corresponding low 
syncline, forms a broad, low anticline between these two 
folds. The accompanying north-south section from the south 
face of the Boston mountains, at Scotland, to the Red river 
monocline will make this clear.

This low anticlinal fold is more marked at its western ex- 
tremity than at its eastern. The position of the south face 
of the main range of the Boston mountains is materially ef- 
fected by these two monoclines with their accompanying an- 
ticline. From the vicinity of the mouth of Devil's f@rk in 11 
N., 11 W., the south face of the mountain retreats, though not 
abruptly, in a northwest direction to the vicinity of Settle- 
ment postoffice, from which place the main range lies to the 
northyvard of the Clinton monocline* to the western extrem- 
ity of that fold. Here the face of the mountains turns to the 
southwest as far as White Oak mountain. From White Oak 
mountain westward the Red river monocline has not the effect 
oil the course of the streams that is noticed at its eastern 
end, but its effect on the topography of the country is even 
more marked. 
All of that portion of the range from White Oak mountain, 
in the northeast corner of 9 N., IS W., to Mulberry mountain,
