Smith brought to his office a fragment of an earthen ware jar or bowl, which was plowed up by his son in a field belonging to Mart Teal. Mr. Smith says many such pieces have been discovered in this vicinity, and that in cultivating the ground a number of human bones, including a skull, have been uncovered. The ground referred to is not in the vicinity of any mounds, such as is supposed to have been used by Indians for burial purposes."
