IN THE PLACE OF BURIAL
The great burying ground extended
over a large area, and as far as We
could see down the coast similar evt-
dsnceS were discovered. The natives
must have depended 10 a great extent
upon abalones for food, as great de-
posits OF shells were found where they
had camped: and that they were fish-
ermen was apparent from the fish
hooks, cut out of the pearly abalone,
that We discovered. We found numer-
Gus beads or wamoum by sitting the
sand through the sieve carried over
Tor the purpose. In walking over the
sandy waste that is gradually en-
cfoaching uoon the interior of the is

snort intervals, suggesting the story OF
an ancient life. Here would be a mass

To the demand made on Mr.. Nc.

distinctly pledge himself to enforce
the law against trust and monoplies,
his supporters answer that the Pres
ident, by his oath of office,is pledged

This assurance may be sufficient
with the party supporters of McKin.

1t is not sufficient because, if Mr..
