1. _Stewartstown, Monongalia County._—Dr. G. F. Wright, in his “Ice Age in Northern America,” fifth edition, page 378, wrote that Dr. I. C. White had reported (Amer. Jour. Sci., ser. 3, vol. XXXIV, pp. 378–379) the finding of a tooth of a mastodon at this place; but in the article quoted nothing is said about a mastodon. Evidently White published this article elsewhere.
The tooth is said to have been dug up on the fifth and highest terrace along Monongahela River. In White’s article, page 378, it is stated that in the region of Morgantown the high-terrace deposits are about 275 feet above low-water in the Monongahela and 1,065 feet above tide. It is probable that the mastodon lived there during the early Pleistocene.
2. _Parkersburg, Wood County._—In 1902 the present writer received from Mr. J. W. Miller, of the High School of Williamstown, West Virginia, a letter inclosing photographs of a mastodon tooth, found on Neal Island, 3 miles above Parkersburg. The tooth appears to be the upper left second molar and is furnished with all of its roots. The writer does not know under what conditions the tooth was found. Its perfect state of preservation shows that it could not have been carried far by the stream. For a discussion of the Pleistocene of some parts of West Virginia the reader may consult the paragraphs on pages 354–355.
1. _New Hanover County._—Under this number must be mentioned that a tooth of _Mammut americanum_ has been found about 10 miles below Wilmington, near the Fort Fisher road. This tooth is in the possession of Captain E. D. Williams, of Wilmington.
2. _Pender County._—Professor H. H. Brimley, of the State Museum at Raleigh, North Carolina, has informed the writer that there are in that museum some remains of mastodon from Pender County; but nothing more is known to the present writer about the nature of these remains or about the locality where they were found.
3. _Duplin County._—From the same source it is learned that there are in the collection at Raleigh teeth of mastodon which had been found in Duplin County.
4. _Goldsboro, Wayne County._—In the State Museum at Raleigh is a left ramus of a mastodon, collected near Goldsboro. The writer has examined this important specimen and has also received a photograph of it, sent by Professor H. H. Brimley. This is evidently the jaw described by Leidy (Proc. Acad. Nat. Sci. Phila., 1871, p. 113) from photographs received from Professor W. C. Kerr, then State geologist of North Carolina. This jaw was recorded as having been obtained from gravel overlying Miocene marl, near Goldsboro.
