The Maroons were the descendants
of African slaves, brought to Jamaica
by the Spaniards. During the conquest
of Jamaica by the English the Ma
rooms, deserted by their masters, fed
to the mountain Businesses, where they
lived fierce, wild life. Increasing
daily in number by the many DESERVING
slaves, the Maroons soon became for
midable to their white neighbors, whom
they piundered and killed. In 1873 an
agreement was made which secured to
them an independence, which they
maintained for 40 years, but the Eng.
fish finally determined to extcrminate
them and for this purpose pursued
them barbarously with bloodhounds
Hemmed in on every side and hunted

The sunday stone.

The sunday stone of the Oxford
museum was taken from Il collicry
drain and is Il perfect calendar of Sun
days and holidays. 1t is composed of
carbonate of lime When miners were
at work, the water running through
the drain left a black deposit colored
by coal dust. At other times the water
ran clear, leaving the stone deposit
white. In course of time these black
aud white layers formed a stone of
considerable thickness, which consti-
tutes Il very complete calendar. Each
day of work has as its record black
streak, followed by white streak,
which marks the hours OF rest at night
Wider white streaks mark the Sundays
and whole holidays, and thus II has
taken its name as the Sunday stone"
