gentleman, who Is exploring the wilds of
Montana and Idaho, writes that not far from
Clusters battle-ground, on the Little Horn
river, is Q place where are to be found regular
drifts Of petrified wood and bones Of extinct
animals. There are to be seen great numbers of
petrified logs. with one end buried in the side of
the bluff, and the other protruding out and
breaking of in blocks. He Says "Some of
these are three feet in diameter, with each
years growth plainly visible In the grain In
the same bfuR are tusks OF the Magatherium as
large around as a mans body, which are like
wise Embedded at one END and breaking of into
blocks at the other. The porous inside under
the enameied surface is unmistakable prouf
that they are bones. Both the trees and the
tusks are as black as coal at the exposed ends.
