According to the Hancock Star, the
Western Maryland Railroad is negotiat-
ing for the purchase of that part of the
C. & o. Canal between Cumberland and
Big Pool. Just what is in the statement
no one seems to know at present. 1t
may be purely speculation. The article
saws the canal is so close to the railroad
and the country so rugged between Big
Pool and Cumberland that the railroad is
not able to double track. If that section
OF the canal is purchased il will be filled
in and used for railroad bed. The
Western Maryland already owns the in
terest of the State of Maryland in the
canal. 1t is planned to erect large coal
ing piers at Big Pool, where the boats
will be loaded for Georgetown and tide
water connections. The w. M. will haul
the coal from Cumberland TO that point.
The Hancock story seems TO think that
if this change in the canal is made il would
enlarge Hancock and make it an impor-
tant railroad center.

The workmen who have been loading
and hauling gravel and sand from the
Compton sand bank, iustnorth ofMounds-
vile, w. Va, have uneathed total OF
eight skulls. When the first skull was
found il was the general opinion that It
was the skull of the headless body that
was found in that vicinity fifty or sixty
wears ago, but latter developments tend
TO show the skulls are those OF Indians,
which have been underground for prooa-
blv century. There was found among
the skulls numerous beads, and this fur
tfer strengthens the theory the skulls are
those OF Indians that lived in the vicinity
when Moundsvile was known as the
Grave Greek Flats. tits likely the ground
about the Compton sand bank was USED
as burial ground by the Indians, and the
fact that only the skulls remain not wholly
decayed is due to the fact that other parts
of the human skeleton decay before the
skulls. The skulls unearthed, however,
crurnbled at the touch. History states
thata massacre of Indians took place atthe
mouth of Little Grave creek in the spring
of l779, and as the Compton sand bank IS
in the Immediately vicinity OF the mouth
of this creek, it is likely the skulls are
those of Indians who were killed at that
time. Many inquiries are being received
from archaeologsts from various parts OF
the country.
