Find Skeleton of old Fighter.

Near SandOwn castle. Deal, England.
children at play recently unearthed
the skeleton of an ancient warrior. The
body had. apparently, received Chris
tian burial, as 1t lay with the feet
pointing eastward. The skull had in
the center, about midway between the
eyes, round hole about the size of
dollar, which might have been caused
by stone thrown from sling, or by
spear of battleax The remains ap-
peared to be centuries old, and the
theory is that they are those of
warrior or seaman landed and buried
from some ship after a sea fight In
the Downs.

bees must take the nectar of $1,000

quires 2,75O,0OO visits to the bios
