1 The distension consequent on upheaval would cause fractures by which the direction of subsequent denudation would be guided; but unless the fractures were very large, or accompanied by faults, it would be unreasonable to look for traces of their existence in the valleys supposed to occupy their places. Professor Ramsay is of a different opinion. See p. 116.
