opened a trench thirty feet long. six feet

human beings arranged for compactness,
the rough pile and larger bodies lcvelled
up with children and lesser bodies. so that
this vast grave should present an even
surface to the brush and boards which
were laid on the faces, and on which the
Garth which was dug out Of the pit was
thrown back When we assembled the
bank. we found two or three hundred pcO-
pie around the brink Of this mound tax
