Numbered below Sealevel on Blossom Sand From Bulletin 619, United States Geological Survey Vicksburg, Mississippi, where it intersects with the Angelina-Caldwell monocline. There is strong structural evidence that this fault, or flexures coincident with it, extends across south-central Mississippi through Jack- son and thence into southern Alabama. The strike of the fault above mentioned lies more or less parallel with the Arbuckle-Wichita Moun- tains, and tlie extension westward of this line of disturbance along the Eed Eiver Valley would coincide roughly with the long anticline mapped.
