SkeIe+on lie Found.

Deadwood.-While playing in the
gypsum cliffs east of the McGregor
ranch, near Spearfsh, some boys un-
covered an old skeleton of a human be-
ing and nearby some human teeth that
were in a fair state of preservation.
Investigation of the finding, which was
at the mouth of an old cave, leads to
the belief that the skeleton belonged
to a man who died here before the
white man was supposed to have en-
tered the Hills. According to old rec
ords, a party of men passed through
mere in 1862, marking a stone which
they sank in the earth near Lookout
mountain. This stone was found many
years ago by Louis Thoen, a Spearish
resident, and was photographed, but
its markings are now practically oblit-
Grated by age. The condition OF the
skeleton indicates that it belonged to
a body that had laid in this spot many
years and old time residents believe
that II was one of the first party OF
white men who ever came into the
Hills.
