ing some OF the earth to find for this, Of the
men struck his spade against what seemed " be an iron
plate This excited the curiosity Of ALL and they set 10
work with will to dig the earth above the plate
Soon their efforts rewarded by the sight OF iron
they came upon flight Of winding stairs, which they
descended and arriving at the foot they found them
by ray OF dim light which solitary oophole at the
top admitted. Striking light 10 dspcl the darkness OF
the dungeon they found upon the floor few withered
bones skull and lantern. The lantern is Of such an
OdfashiOned construction and shape that 1t must have
been made over 50 years ago
