Joseph Wigglesworth, Ex-

SURVEY FINANCED
BY JOSIAH MARVEL

Joseph wigglesworth. former pro-
thonotary. and at present clerk OF
the Court Of Common Pleas. has
been given a leave OF absence by
Resident Judge Herbert l.. Rice TO
enable him 10 undertake what is
thought 10 be the first organized
archaeological survey TO be made In
Delaware. Mr.. Wigglesworth. who
has devoted his life TO studying the
manners and life of the Leni Lenape
Indians, who inhabited this State at
the time of the arrival OF the first
settlers. will explore the recently
discovered Indain graveyard at Re-
hoboth Beach.
The exploration will be financed
by Josiah Marvel. OF this city. who
has always taken a deep interest
in the affairs OF the Natural History

a member. Mr.. Marvel, who visited
the site Of the Indian camp last
Sunday. has arranged through Mar

The work Of delving into the sands
OF the Rehoboth shore will be start
ed on Monday. The discovery OF
several skeletons, thought TO be
those Of Indians. in the sand ledge
where the Douglass House stood at
Rehoboth. was made possible by the
action OF the Delaware bay washing
the sand away. The finding OF these
skeletons. together with skulls and
other bones. along the beach near
Rehoboth during the past 25 years
has caused many TO think that the
site was at one time a large burial
ground for the pioneer aborigines
The only other burial ground Of In

answered that there we're not

the lower sections Of Delaware and

The few persons in lower Della

can readily obtain Wilmington di-
rectories," said Mr.. Bardo. I'VE are
quite generous in our distrbption Of
the books all through the State. Any
subscriber in Wilmington needing a
Dover district book may have one
for the asking. likewise subscribers
in the Dover district may have the
Wilmington books. But as TO COM
binlng them again. we have not
found SUFFICIENT long distance calls
to warrant the additional expense OF
printing.
