Elizabeth City. y. c., January %
nnd of much historical interest was
made on Roanoke Island a few days
ago. when two young boys named
Afeekins found dozen bottles OF
brandy which are al least fifty years
old.
The boys were walking around the
shore line on the north end OF the
island when they saw some bottles
sticking up out Of the water. Iney
investigated. and found that there
was d dozen Of them arranged IN three
rows The bottoms OF the bottles
were securely fastened in the clay of
the shore line When they were re-
moved they were found 10 be IL per
feet condition and securely corked, the
corks having rottec away and the
mouths OF the bottles having been allied
with sand. which had been cenented
over. The boys sampled bottle and
found its contents 20 be very palata-
bic. 80 much so that they drank too
much: and i went 20 their heads.
They summoned their father, who
recognized at once the value OF the
discovery.
This brandy was found about fifty
yards north Of Hugers fort. and 1t Is
believed that 1t was buried IN the earth
by Yankee soldiers when they occu-
pied this fort. and II has remained
there all these years, until the winds

The bottles had not been removed
from their first resting place. as IN
