7. _Circleville, Pickaway County._—In 1834 (Amer. Jour. Sci., vol. XXV, p. 256), in an unsigned article, the geologist S. P. Hildreth told of having a tooth of an elephant which had been found in gravelly diluvium back of Circleville. This meant probably somewhere east of the town.
8. _South Bloomfield, Pickaway County._—In the article just cited, Hildreth told of securing, near South Bloomfield, teeth of the “American elephant,” in association with those of the mastodon. They were found in excavating for a culvert over a small branch near the town. Hildreth described the teeth, so that it is certain that they belonged to an elephant; but the species can not be determined. A tooth is described as being 7 inches broad, 6 inches long, and 3 inches thick.
9. _Cleveland, Cuyahoga County._—In 1886 (Proc. Davenport Acad. Sci., vol. IV, p. 308), Dr. E. Sterling reported the finding of an elephant in a small swamp 3 miles from Cleveland and 2 miles from the lake. The swamp had originally occupied about 2 acres of surface. A well-preserved tusk, two vertebræ, three ribs, part of the sacrum, and a molar were secured. In 1873 (Geol. Surv. Ohio, vol. I, pt. 1, p. 183), J. S. Newberry stated that the delta sand deposits, the gravel and sand, which form the surface of the Cleveland plateau, had yielded numerous parts of the skeletons of mastodon and elephant.
10. _Montville, Geauga County._—In 1873 (Geol. Surv. Ohio, vol. I, pt. 1, p. 526), M. C. Read recorded the discovery of remains of an elephant at this place. Two tusks were secured, also all the bones of the pelvis, seven or eight vertebræ, some ribs, fragments of the skull, and a part of one tooth; the latter was not described. The remains were found in a small marsh; at the surface was a deposit which had resulted from the growth of swamp vegetation; at the bottom was clay; and in this clay the bones were buried. They were supposed to have belonged to a young animal.
11. _Canton, Stark County._—In Mount Union-Scio College the writer has examined a right tibia of a proboscidean reported to have been found 3 miles northeast of Canton. It is believed to have belonged to one of the elephants and not to a mastodon. The following measurements were taken.
