AN INDIAN REIIc.-A resident of
Mill Hall. Clinton county, while ex-
cavating for cellar on the side of
the hill near that borough, found
an oblong piece of pottery which is
supposed to have been used by the
Indians. The relic is 6 inches long,

The material from which it is made

terry that have been found along the
river. This particular specimen has
some appearance of having been
used as crucible for melting ore.--
