TWO MUzzLELOAO|NG MUSKETS
LEFT BY PIONEER ROAD AGENTS

would tell an interesting pioneer
story If they we're only endowed with
speech. The treasures are two mus.
kets that must have been used rs
years ago. Both were made for per
cussion caps. One was a breech
loader of the type styled a needle
gun" where the owner had to bite off
the end of the cartridge before in
serting it in the breech. This gun
bore the name of u. Cox" engraved
with three stars, evidently the name
of the maker The other was a muz-
zle loader with the name of Barnett,
London" This latter gun was badly
patched with pieces of willow and
cedar around the stock, bound to-
gether with wire. Then there was
sawed off six shot pistol of Colts
make fitted for ball and cap with the
butt bound and trimmed in brass. The
muskets were found standing against
the wall of the cave, but there was
neither ramrod nor ammunition In
sight. The theory of the finder, who
has had considerable experience in
the west, is that the weapons be
longed to early day road agents and
WI = ubdhdOutu WITCH lACy
better arms. There was no indica
tion that the cave had been used as
place of refuge or rendezvous fol
any marauders since it is located foul
miles from the nearest water. The
cave contained no other evidences o.
human occupancy and could not have
been used as place of retreat, al
there was no outlet to serve for {
/ chimney. In front of the opening
was a bleached bone of a deer lei
and the shank of COW bone. Th'
theory that the weapons belonged tt
the early day Indians who had cap
tured them from pioneer Mormons il
not sustained as it is known Indian
never use caves, as they fear beini
entrapped. They may set up thei
wickiups under protection Of a elf
or rock, but they never have beel
known TO remain over night in
cave.
The place where the guns wer
found is in the White Mountains,
miles northeast from Westgaard Pass
