A group of well-known mounds is situated on the farm of the late Frank
Menard, 8 miles south-east of the village of Arkansas Post.
The largest mound is 965 feet in circumference at the top and
considerably larger at the base. The slopes are covered with trees
and bushes.
This mound had already been dug into quite extensively, and it was
thought useless to explore it further. Connected with this mound by a
ridge of earth 300 feet long and 20 feet across, is a small circular
mound, 15 feet high and 45 feet in diameter, which bore evidence of
having been occupied by houses.
