"The next group surveyed are on the crest of the ridge heretofore mentioned and on both sides of the Black River Road."

"Mound No. 23 is also in the form of a bird with outstretched wings. It lies  on top of the ridge, with the head lying crosswise of the highest point."

"Mound No. 24 is close to the right or east, on the high part of the ridge, extending in the same direction as 23."

"Northward of this group some 400 yards, there is a mound in the form of a quadruped, probably a fox, partly in the woods and partly in the field on the west side of the road. It is built on the crest of the ridge with the head to the south."
