Ancient Burial-Place Discovered.
1ecial 10 the IndiananOlis Journal


SEYMOUR, May 9.-The gravel road COM
pany engaged in building road north from
this place recently purchased an acre of
ground from which to procure gravel. The
ground purchased is three miles from here,
near Rockford, but q short distance from
White river, and has proved to be an ancient
burying- ground, it is supposed of the Mound
Builders. About dozen skeletons have
been exhumed, most of which are in good
state of preservation. Hon. A. A. Dawson,
superintendent of the road, and Dr. Millard
F. Gerrish have made careful examination
of the bones. The bodies had been buried
with the heads to the east and not in the
sitting position characteristic Of the Indians.
Two earthen jars, or vases were found,
which were unique in design. Numerous
lime and sandstone bowlders not common to
the locality were unearthed; There is an alb
sence of arrow-heads, or Indian relics.

A Demand by Trustee Kitz for the Annual
Payment and Accrued Interest.

Mr.. II. N. Span, representing Trustee Kitz,
yesterday made the following demand, which is
self-explanatory, of the county commissioners
The Honorable Board of County Commissioners of
Marion County:
On March %, 1881, the township of Center
obtained a Judgment against the county of Ma
rion for $5S,202.93, in the Superior Court of
said county. The interest on this amount and
the terms of the decree rendered In said Superior
Court. In pursuance to this decree, l, as trustee
of said township, have received on said judg-
ment the following sums of money: June 49,
1892, the annual interest on said sum of $685.
202. 80, dating from March %, 1881, TO March
%, 1882, the same being S2,9Io.l5, at the rate
of per cent. June %, 1882, 1 received also on
the principal of said Judgment the sum of
So, 0S985. Feb. z, 1888, l received the fur
Judgment, making the sum of $4,000 received
for 1882 on SAID Judgment. 1 hereby demand
the accrued interest on the principal of said
Judgment for the year commencing March %,
1882, and ending March %, 1883, tie same be-
ing the sum of $2,S14.40.
1 hereby also demand the further sum Of
5000, as the required annual payment TO be
made by the terms of the decree aforesaid on
the principal, said year commencing on the 23d
of March, 1882, and ending the Odd of March,
1883, and of this demand you VIII please take
due notice. ERNEST KITz,
Trustee of Center Township.
By Spaan IL Heiner, his Attorneys
The commissioners took the matter under ad-
visement, and will probably not decide upon it
until the May term. The money in question is
the amount of the levy paid by Center town
ship. this county, for the construction of
the Indiana g. Illinois Central, which
was never built. The money remained
in the treasury, and two years ago the township
trustee recovered Judgment for it, as indicated
in the above demand. The settlement would
probably have been made on this basis had it
not Deen for the fact that about twenty-five
leading taxpayers of the city have entered suit
for their share of iU, claiming that as the fund
was never applied to the purpose intended i5
should revert to those who paid it In. For this
reason the commissioners are undecided what
course 10 pursue, and one of them inIimated,
yesterday, that before making any further al
lOwancee out of the fund they would await a de-
clsiOn by the Supreme Court. The demand made
by Mr.. Kitz is rather positive, and, il it is not
compiled with, will probably be followed up by
recourse to the courts.
