very interesting fact, and one which may
shed some light upon the question Of who
were the builders Of the shell mounds Of
tho coast regions eli Texas. During the
great storm Of 1888 which 50 nearly de-
stroyad Sabine Pass. one OF these shell
mounds. which was near a certain house
on the river bank and the locality Of
which was exactly known, was destroyed

waves and rebuilt nearly half mile
further up stream than IL formerly stood
Il u.s. therefore. possible that these so
called Indian shell mounds, which are
composed almost entirely Of shells, with
fragments Of pottery and sometimes a
crumbling bono or two. were not built, as
has been supposed. By Indian tribes who
lived On she'll fish but are entirely duo &c

Of the Indian relics may be easily &c
