| the house had gotten through its usual

Jefferson. o. T, Jan. 24.-Few people
who know that there is an Indian burial
ground on the Col. d. r. Green farm.
east of jefferson. says the Review. In
the spring of 1894, Col Green's son, Oscar,
while digging on u little knoll near tho
house. unearthed an Indian skeleton. He
came TO town and notified the writer of
his find. We accompanied him home and
began d search for other graves. and four
others were easily found, as there was
but few inches of earth over poles laid
across the top of the graves. The corps
were placed in the graves in a sitting
posture with the arms down at the side
of the body. From the manner of burial
the bodies were supposed to be those of
Osages and it is said that a battle oc-
