wood on the mountain, discovered
near the base q wall ten or twelve

pendieular precipice Of apparently
solid rock. He took. down q
portion of the wall, and came to
an opening 10 the rock large

this singular cavern, M. Frear
entered the opening. He found
himself In q large chamber, the
walls being Of rough and jagged

that be could not explore the case

no person has penetrated further
than sixty feet under the noun

A piece Of pure lead, a gun barrel,
and a collection of bones were
found by Mr.. Frear in the cavern.
He threw the bones in the river
before ascertaining whether they
were human RENAME or not. A
