The ocean bottom south of Long Island has a slope of about six feet to the mile for a distance of one hundred miles, but across this apparent plain from Sandy Hook is a remarkable series of depressions along what was evidently an old valley of the Hudson river when the coast was higher than now on the Long Island shore further out to the seaward. The most remarkable of these depressions is the "one hundred and forty-five fathom hole," so called on the charts, but really 2,700 feet deep, and about one hundred miles from Sandy Hook. The general depth about it is 600 feet, and at one point it rises to within 400 feet of the surface. It is well defined, leading off south-eastward to where the sea becomes 3,000 feet deep.
