Numerous roots OF the tuckahoe are found

INDIAN POTTERY.

Mr. Wldgeon found about ten specimens
OF Indian pottery. all of different patterns,
which he considers Of special interest and
value. i has been thought by some people
that the presence OF so much broken pot
terry on this tract Of land Is evidence that
an Indian pottery was located here when
the Indians owned the country. But It is a
singular fact that the only finds are
broken pieces, and pretty small bits for
the most part This, together with the
presence of "a heavy stratum OF oyster
shells, gives experts the impression that
Il was used as q feasting place and that
the fragments are from vessels broken IN
use during feasts
Among the specimens which Mr. Wild
geon bagged Tor the academy were ham
mer stones, upon which the ownership de-
vices Of Indians We're found. These stones
are from one to two pounds an weight and
were used by the Indians to break oysters
nuts, etc. The devices for the most part
are very rude, but nevertheless distinct
and answering the purposes OF the Indian
IN his life quite as well as tho signet ring
of our English progenitors. The pigment
used I'm mixing the paint was OF very
durable quality, for It has stood the test

POLISHING STONES.

Mr.. widgeon also obtained some good
specimens OF stones used by the Indians
to polish and sharpen their implements.
They plainly showed evidences Of the use
to which they We're subjected. They were
of very gritty sandstone. A rare find was
"a small jasper celt. This was the first
Jasper smoothing stone which Mr. Wild
geon had ever seen. IL was about one and
half inches long and was doubtless en-
ployed on fine and delicate work. 1t IS a
common thing to find jasper arrowheads
IN Worcester county, but Jasper has moi
been heretofore found made into celts
which. by the way, were employed by tn,
Indians in dressing skins and finishing
the handles OF their Implements, AS jasper
IS not native to the Eastern Shore, It was
doubtless brought here and deposited by
the ice-drift during the glacial period
Mr. widgeon says the specimen he found
appears 20 be OF the same kind as that
found in the chalk mines Of England.
