There YVES brought into this Office
about q week ago, the corner of a piece
of plank said TO have been sawed from
the center of a log in Mr.. Drew's mill
and containig bark on it. While we
were at Mr.. Drew's mill on Wednesday
evening last, we asked Mr.. Powell, the
manager, to give us the particulars Of
it which he did in the following way.
"They were saving a rather large
cypress log, and after taking of a
slab and a number of plank, they
found this piece of timber imbeded
in the log. A piece Of seasoned cy-
press with bark on one side, and the
signs, apparently, Of an ak on the 9th
er side" How this piece of seasoned
timber got into this log is not known.
Mr.. Powell thinks this tree had been
chopped into many years ago, and per-
haps the block of wood was chopped
from some other tree, and placed into
the hole and the tree had grown
over it, inclosing it in this position.
We leave it to our readers to form
their own conjeetures as to how it got
there.
