Antiquarians Discover Many interest
Ing Indian Relics In Heart of
New York City.

New York.--Many interesting In
dian relics and much historical mate
rial have been unearthed recently In
the borough Of the Bronx by two con-
sulting engineers and antiquarians.
Reginald Pelham Bolton and w. l..
Calvert of this city.
Messrs. Bolton and Calvert have
made the excavations on Sundays in
the last year to satisfy their thirst
for antiquarian knowledge. and the
scene OF their operations has been
where Jonas s. Bronck. the tirst
white settler In the Bronx. had his
home. Very little has been known
about these places. from an anti
quarian standpoint. The Morris
manor house was occupied by Cow
erneur Morris and was the great
residence in that Rsighborhood. 1t
was built In the Year 1910 and is
now In ruins.
The two antiquarians found In
dian pits in one of which was dis
covered a portion of a clay pipe.
which may have been used by Jonas
Bronck. The antiqrarians were ju-
bilant when they struck a row OF
bake ovens which had been used
not only by the Indians. but also by
the soldiers Of the revolution. A
large number OF bronze coins of
George l.. George IL. and George III.
were found Some of these coins
were In splendid condition. and one
was almost bright They discovered
a large quantity OF cutlery. which
was used by Col James De Lancey's
battalion of the Continental army.
The excavations at the Morris man.
sion have not been completed and
much more material is believed to be
awaiting their industry.
The Morris manor house stood at
the enc OF Cypress avenue. near the
Willis avenue bridge. with series
of vaults and wine cellars. II has
been said that there was a sub
terranean passage leading to the
Bronx Kills. but the excavators
were unable to find any trace OF
such q passage Near the Morris
manor house was the home of Jonas
Bronx. who had a tiled roof. An
old record says that Bronx used rea
silver on his stable. had table
cloth and napkins. and possessed as
many as six linen shirts. In this
house. which was like miniature

sachems. Ranaqua and Tuckamuck
was signed by the Dutch in 1912.
Messrs. Bolton and Culver made

The Register must be in its callow
youth if it does not remember that
Culberson fought some mighty big and
noisey punches of public opinion when
he was governor, for instance, when
he called a special session of the leg

senate, too, Culberson has never
shown the white feather when the oc-
casion demanded courage. But he has
never tried to be big noise, and that
is what the Register seems to admire.
