aM&n0t sure yet whether / shall
be aR1gs$to appoint constable for
OconseSSounty or not, as the law en-
forcement fund Is very meagre when
one sc0Nstders the amount Of lawless-
ness Is going on. The General
a AIssenS allowed me a little over
3 28f0AH0ut Of this, in addition to
payinSlshe. salaries and expenses of
heseettstables, have to pay alr re-
quistssb8 expenses, special investi-
getiySSSe NJ raMards. and so on. You
sGai theTef reS that II viii sn1ts'
be possible for me to have more thar
six or seven, men regularly employed
Under the circumstances an
afraid 1T will be Impossible for me
to have more than one constable tc
operate regularly In that section OF
the State. 1T will be necessary fol
him 10 attach himself alternately tc
Federal and county forces, and dc
the best he can that way.
Very truly yours,

Joseph Wigglesworth, former

archaeological survey OF the upland

OF its kind ever Instituted in Della
ware. has submitted his report TO
the Historical Society OF Delaware.
In his report. Mr.. Wigglesworth
states that the finding OF the skele-
tons OF Indians at Rehoboth Beach
indicates that the site was at one
time an Indian camp but was not a
graveyard. as had been supposed.
Fifteen bodies were exhumed and
they revealed in number Of cases
that the heads had been severed
from the torso before burial. One OF
the skeletons examined was that OF
child. What is regarded as fur

graveyard is the failure to discover
hunting Implements. such as were
buried with the Indian dead, when
the skeletons were inferred.

Injunctlons TO restrain further
