FLINT IMPLEMENTS FOUND AT PORTESHAM. 193 



by the same process. I have, by the use of sulphuric acid, turned 

 them from brown to pristine white again. 



These implements have been before Sir Joseph Prestwich and 

 other professors, who agree that they are of Neolithic origin, and 

 most of them in the early stage of making ; many of the chips 

 broken off in making are found with them. One is a fine celt, fit 

 for use and well made. 



As I wish them to be permanently where the public can inspect 

 this fine lot of interesting implements, I leave them in the posses- 

 sion of the County Museum.
