large stone which had lain above ground
for a considerable time on the farm Of Mill
craig, II, 1vengordon parish. Scotland, they
were astonished and delighted 10 see about
sixty siver coins fall out Of cavity which
bad been made In the stone, and which
was carefully covered over with another
thin stone, made exactly TO fit the top Of
the place OF deposit. The coins are COM
posed chiefly Of Spanish dollars Of the
reignof Phillip W., with few English
slnllings. ranging in dates from 1920 to
1888, Several Of the dollars have bean
sold by the finders for rs. Cd. each but IN
actual value they are worth more, as they
are heavier than our fiye-shilIng pieces.
II is impossible to say how long the coins
may have been concealed, but we should
think considerable time, as parts Of sofne
Of them are eaten away. How and by
whom they were deposited 10 matter Of
still greater doubt. II Ia not Impossible

the stones may at some time have formed
part of building and had not the ce-
ment which held them together given way,
