ftones, and a large one on the top. As the workmen 

 wrought but a fmall way into the cairn, it is probable 

 there are many urns contained in it yet." And I am 

 informed by Mr. James Black of Dromaragh, that on 

 the removal of two very large upright ftones, which 

 lay in the line of a road, the workmen, who were cm- 

 ployed, broke an urn with their pickaxes before they 

 were aware. Thefe ftones were fo large, and fo diffi- 

 cult to break, the idea was at firft to go round them : 

 we may therefore judge of the difficulty there was in 

 placing them above the urns. 



An earthen lamp of curious form was fome years 

 ago dug up near Moira, at a confiderable depth ; the 

 figures upon it were more remarkable for their inde- 

 cency than their elegance. 



At Dundonald very confiderable ruins have been 

 found, 1 20 feet by forty ; and alfo at Seafin, in the pa- 

 rifh of Drumgooland ; probably fome of the monafte- 

 ries mentioned as unknown. Many other curious re- 

 mains are met with in different places, but it would be 

 foreign to the purpofe of this Report to enlarge on the 

 fubjeft, however interefting it might be to purfue it 

 farther.
