Being Constantly Found IN Parts OF the

Evidences of the original occupants
of the kennebec valley are occasloiill-
ly cropping out in the form o. the md
ing Of stone tools and other lnstru-
montS made from stone.

hawk has been recently discovered on
the land belonging to what is known
as the "FillebroWn" farm at East
Winthrop. BY Gorham fl. Wing.
The weapon is made OF stone, of a
dark colCr and about Sin inches in
length. In the center is depression
which was evidently designed to fasten
it to a handle. one end is brought to
an edge, while the other is of thicker
proportions.

gouge which WAS found on the shore of
Lake Maranacouk. several years ago,
near the Portland Packing COS. plant.
While it might have performed its du-
