Skeletons Supposed to Be Those OF
Indians-One of Them POSSIBLY
Woman. -

Pendleton, Ind, August 24.-As
Ward Fuqua was loading gravel II 4
Pit Ill the w. $. McCarty farm. south
of here, he struck his pick into what
seemed TO be human skull. Isyes-
tigation followed with the result that
two skeletons, presumably those of
Indians, We're exhumed. The bones
were in a bad state of decomposition
and tended to crumble upon coming
In contact with the air. BY careful
handling the pieces We're put together
sufficiently to ascertain something of
the size of the people buried here at
that far off mysterious time. One.
possibly woman, was something over
five fees in height, while the other.
whose heavier bones betokened a man.
appeared to have belonged to a per
son nearly six feet in height. The
former was facing the south and lay
face downward, as if the body had
been carelessly tossed into a hastily
made grave on the hilltop, or had
been buried while yet alive, and in
choking agony had contracted its
body and rested his face on his arm
IN an effort to shut out the stragling
soil and yet little air might Vet be
around the body. The decayed condi-
ton prevented the excavators from
discovering any traces of physical yio-
lence that might have caused the
death of these unknown people. There
IS no knowledge at hand of any pri-
vate burial ground being located there
either of recent years or of pioneer
times. The skeletons might be those
of a pioneer and his wife, but the
strange positions of the bodies for
bid such a conclusion. unless that
hill was the scene of forgotten mas
sacre. There has been no agency of
nature which would contain bodies so
buried. The number of stone darts
and fragments of waring Instruments
found around the pit would tend to
prove that the noun was an Indian
burial site.
