whole length Of il, when down they fell bu,
soou, like so many imps they tormenied Us
ill we reached the narrow deie, when they
left as. We returaed by " Wilkins armed
chair" and back TO the second hoppers. IL
was at this place found The Mummy which
before alluded TO, where il had been placed
by Mr. Wilkins, from aoo,her part. Of tie
gave, FOR preservation. II Is cmale about
six feet IN height, and so perfectly dried as TO
wsjgb but 90 pounds when found it--lhe
hair on the back part OF the head is rather
short, and Of sandy hue.-tbe top of the head
Is bald--thc eyes sunk in the head--,he nose,
or that part which is csrtilaginious, is dried
down 10 the bones of the face--lhe lips are
dried away, and discovered fine set Of teeth,
white Is ivory. The hands and feet are per-
Feet even TO lhe nails, and very delicate, like
those Of young person but the teeth are
worn as much as persons at the age oil fiiy.
Sho must have been some parsonage OF
high distinction, if we may Judge from the
order in which abe was buried. Mr.. Wilkins
Informed me, she was Grst founa by some la
Sorers, while digging salt petre earth, in
part uf the cave about miles from the en-
trance, buried eight feet deep between four
lirae stone slabs, and in the posture she is ex-
hibitcd IN the drawing sent you. Seated,
the knees brought close TO the body, which is
eAc,, the hand clasped aud laid UPON the
stomach, the head upright.
-. She was muffied up, and covered with n
number of garments made of species Of
wild hemp and the bark of q willy, which
formerly grew in Kentucky. The cloth is of
a curious texture and fabric, made up in the
form o! blankets or winding sheets, with vory
handsome borders. Bags of different sizes
We're found by her side, made of the same
cloth, in which were deposited her jos9els,
beads, srinkets, and implements of industry;
all of which arc very greet curiosities, being
different from any thing of the Indian kind
ever found in this county.--AmonG the ar
,icles was musical instrument, made in two
pieces Of cane put together something like
.~hs double flageolct, and curiously intcrwoycn
with elegant feathcrs--she had likewise by
her a bowl Of uncommon workmanship and
vandyke made Of festhers, very beautiful.
My ftisod Mr. Wilkins, gave me The
MOmmy, which ! brought away, together
with her spparels, jewels, music, &c.
