been found a great number of specimens of broken crockery, plain and ornamented in crossed lines; grooved axes of greenstone; celts in greenstone, jasper, agate, hornstone, and limestone; pipes, arrow and lance heads, chisels, grinding stones, pestles, sinkers, flint flakes and cores, ornaments in slates and other colored stones; bones of fish and many animals, horns of deer and elk, teeth of bears, &c. Some of these may have been thrown up by the plow and scattered over the space near the mound. From the number of fragments of various stones, it seems that there was a workshop here, and so I have located one on the map. The mound was built of earth taken from the vicinity, and there were evidently some large stones in connection with it, but how they were placed is not known. B, C, D were within a mile of A, and were single graves. They have all been opened, and each contained one skeleton, without implements or ornaments so far as known. In one, the body seemed to have been buried horizontally, on the right side, with the head to the east; the position of the others is unknown. There seemed to have been a stone cist erected on or near the surface of the ground; and then rocks appear to have been set on edge around it, until a space 10 or 12 feet square was inclosed. If ever covered with earth, time has removed it down to the rocks. B is on the farm of Dr. Thomas Hyle, and and D on that of Cornelius Terhune. E and F are points on Salt River, above and below A, where remains of pottery, &c., have been found; but their real character cannot be determined. E is on the farm of John Ludwich, in Boyle County, and F on that of Mrs. Lewis.
G is a grave on the farm of Thomas Knox, but I have not seen it. From description it is like B, C, and D.
H is only a point marked by great numbers of flint chippings and broken arrow-heads.
I represents a space on a farm owned by W. B. Cecil, where a great many pipes, axes, &c., have been found.
J is a mound of earth on the farm of the Misses Craig, about 1½ miles south of Danville, in Boyle County. It is some 5 feet high and 50 feet in circumference. It has been opened, but I know of nothing obtained from it.
K is located on the farm of John F. Tedger. It has been opened, and is similar to B, C, D.
L is in Boyle County, on the land of Wyatt Hughes. It was destroyed by excavating a road-bed for a railroad; and seems to have been like B, C, and D.
M is a small earthen mound on the southern bank of Rolling Fork, Boyle County. It has been razed by cultivation. Some bones, a grooved ax, and a few arrow-heads of hornstone were disclosed.
N is said to be the site of two graves, and is just west of Harrodsburg and "old William s" place. From what I can learn the graves are like B, C, D.
O is a single (?) grave with stones set up around it. I have not examined it, but from appearances it is like B, C, D.
