about the yard. and only one of them
had life enough to rise to its forefeet and

A discovery of great archaeological i'm

engaged in cutting turf from a bog near
KNOCK Midtown, County Galwal, Ireland.
At depth Of sixteen feet he; came upon a
boat hewn out of a single piece Of oak
and estimated to be at least 1 900 years
old notwithstanding it's age, it is sin

about three feet WIDE and two and one

two, or at most three, men might lift it,
but when weighed shortly after Its exca-

Sir Thomas Esmonde, Bart, has pur-
chased this valuable find for presentation
to the Royal Irish academy, where it will
