PAPERS RELATING TO ANTHROPOLOGY. 745 



Kumber 57 is an open-air workshop in Sec. 4, T. 9 N., R. 2 W., near 

 the southeast corner of the northwest quarter section, on Mr, George 

 Templeton's farm. It is situated on the second terrace formation of the 

 river, south of Templeton's Creek about 300 yards, and 150 yards south 

 of his residence. The gentleman states that he has found a great many 

 axes, pestles, celts, and arrow-points on this piece of land, and from a 

 spot about 200 feet square has hauled at least sixty wagon-loads of 

 chipped and unchipped cobblestones, and yet as many loads remain. 

 Mr. Templeton has in his possession an ax taken from this shop, the 

 most perfect one the writer has examined. 



Number 58 is a workshop in Sec. 12, T. 10 N., R. 2 W., in the north- 

 east corner of the southwest quarter section, on the second terrace forma- 

 tion, and in Mr. Charles B. Hay ward's farm. It stands almost oi^posite the 

 noted Glidwell mound, and on the west side of the river, in plain view 

 of Ko. 57. To the northwest of the field in which this shop is located are 

 several never-failing springs, whose water forms quite a stream, which 

 flows along the north side and empties into the river. Here can be 

 found a vast amount of chert chips, chert balls, broken and chipped cob- 

 ble-stones, and broken arrow-points. The implements that predominate 

 are the scrapers, axes, sinkers, hammer or chipping-stoues. A few or- 

 namental pieces have been found. The author has gathered and re- 

 ceived from Mr. Hayward at least a bushel of relics. And every year 

 when this spot of ground is turned over hundreds are picked up by the 

 owner and given away, yet, from among the vast number, not one pure 

 flint-point has been found. 



Xumber 59 is a workshop in Sec. 17, T. 10 N., R. 2 W., in the south- 

 east part of the northeast quarter section, on the second terrace for- 

 mation of the river, on Mr; James Herrall's farm, a little east of north 

 from his residence, and close to the road, on the east side of the field in 

 which it is located. East of the field is a fine spring of water, and near 

 by in the field is the workshop, about 300 feet square. Here were manu- 

 factured the ornamental or ceremonial pieces, for every year that this 

 spot is cultivated several implements are picked up in an unfinished or 

 finished state. Some are only chipped into form, some chipped, pecked, 

 and partly ground ; others completed, with the exception of drilling, 

 which in some cases is commenced ; others are entirely finished. A few 

 celts and chij)ping-stones have been found, but they do not seem to be 

 very numerous. 



Number 60 is a workshop in Sec. 9, T. 11 N., R. 2 W., on the south- 

 west corner of the northwest quarter section, on the second terrace for- 

 mation of the river, and on Mr. Alexander Johnston's farm. The spot 

 covers about 4 or 5 acres, constituting the area of the plateau over 

 which the work was prosecuted. The articles of manufacture were 

 axes, celts, and pestles. From this spot have been gathered quite 

 a number of these domestic implements, with a few ornaments, by Mr. 

 Theodore Campbell, S.Conrad, H. Brown, James Mills, and others. Quite
