OLD COLONIAL TUNNEL FOUND.
Skeletons Discovered in Passaaeway
from Philadelphia Church.

Philadelphia.-The long perplexing
mystery as TO how the chimes Of old
Christ church were removed from the
building during the revolutionary war
when the building was closely guarded
by British soldiers has been solved by
the finding of subterranean passage
leading from the church to Market
street, over 200 feet away. In the tun.
mel were found the skeletons of eight
men by workmen excavating for a sub
basement under the hardware store of
James NJ Vance. 2ll Market street
The bodies were hesped in a pile.
The tunnel is about two hunderd
feet long, three feet wide. seven feet
high and II feet underneath the sur
face of the street. The entrance to the
passage, where II was first discovered.
begins at a point underneath the
basement floor about five feet from the
Market street curb. 1t runs back
across Church street to a point direct.
ly underneath the tower of Old Christ
church. At that point the remains of
an old stairway were found. but across
the stair a wall Of masonry was found
When the tunnel was constructed is
another of the mysteries of the many
subterranean passages that have from
time to time been discovered in this
oldest part Of the city Some Of these
passages lead from the river front for
hundreds of feet under the city and
terminate in blind walls.
