that an Indian battle occurred here,
and many Indians were slain and the
bodies were all dumped into one hole
In blowing near here farmers have
found several Indian relics, including
tomahawks, and some of them are
now in the Colby College library. This
mound is on the River road, just be-

crew of men has begun work on
the raising of the Maine Central
track between Hinckley and Shawmut.
The track is being raised several feet
on account of the new Shawmut dam,
which will raise the water of the Ken
nehec river several feet. Nearly
mile of this track is being built.
Work will soon begin on the raising
of the road on the Clinton side in
Skowhegan, as the old road will be
flooded by the raising of the dam. The
dam is now about half completed, it
being built from both sides
