 feet, the earth containing very little refuse and no ashes. On the 

 talus at the entrance, and also at the bottom of the bluff in which the 

 caves open, is much refuse which the inmates threw out as rubbish. 



The front chamber of the main cavern is quite regular in form, 

 going straight back like a vault for 80 feet, then turning abruptly 

 westward with a width of 47 feet, the west wall making almost a 

 right angle at the corner. The east wall abuts squarely against the 

 rear; a narrow crevice leads eastward from their junction, but as this 

 was filled with water and mud no exploration in it was attempted.
