Into this main valley emptied many tributaries. Only threeof these are of especial concern in this connection. They are,first, the Wills Creek valley which heads directly north of theDuck Creek basin and extends northward into the Tuscarawasabove Dresden. This valley has not as yet been studied andit may be that the present valley is composed of several preglacialelements. Wills Creek has a very crooked course and as faras the data in hand now show, is an aggrading stream. Itpresents many interesting features well worthy of more carefulstudy. Secondly, just west of the Wills Creek basin isthe portion of the Muskingum River from the north Morgan-county line to Dresden. It is shown in the works alreadyreferred to that this section of the Muskingum is reversed andthat in preglacial times there was a col on the Muskingum at

The third section is that of the Jonathan Creek which wastributary to this reversed Muskingum section at Zanesville.The headwaters of these northward flowing streams are shownon the accompanying map (Plate I). To the east of the region lies the drainage basin of the Mo-nongahela and upper Ohio. The modifications in this section havebeen very great and have been the object of study by manygeologists. A summary of the work done by the earlier stu-dents, with newly added data, is given by Dr. T. C. Cham-berlin and Mr. Frank Leverett in the American Journal of Sci-ence, Volume XLVII, No. 280. According to these authorsthere was an old col on the Ohio a little below New Martins-ville, W. Va.
