6 REPORT—1874. 
No. 6291, a piece of coarse chert, having the form of a horseshoe-shaped 
scraper, is about 2-1 inches long and broad, and 7 inch in greatest thickness. 
The hinder end is sharply truncated, and the “bulb of percussion ” is well 
developed near it on the inner face, put everywhere else its margin is a thin 
edge. It was found alone, in the fourth foot-level, November 29, 1873. 
No. 6292, found on the same day and in the same “ parallel” and “level” 
as No. 6291, but about 3 yards on the left of it, is a portion of a white’flint, 
probably a “‘core” from which flakes had been struck. It retains a part 
of the original surface of the nodule. No other object was found near it. 
No. 6299 is a rude flake of chert having little or nothing about it suggestive 
of an artificial origin. It has undergone the metamorphosis so frequently 
observed in Cave flints, by which it has acquired a granular chalky texture 
and has lost a part of its weight. It was found without any other object, 
in the third foot-level, December 8, 1873. 
No. 6358, a coarse chert tool, which has also been metamorphosed, is of a 
very irreoular nondescript form, and remains partially surrounded with 
Breccia. “It was met with in the second foot-leyel, February 3, 1874, and 
was unfortunately broken by the workmen, but has been repaired. 
No. 6364, a rather rude flake of coarse chert which has been rolled since 
it was struck off, retains much of the original surface of the nodule, and, 
though perhaps not intentionally fashioned as a tool, may haye been utilized. 
It was found, with a tooth of Bear, bones and fragments of bone, in the third 
foot-level, February 14, 1874. 
No. 6367, an angular chip of flint, was found, with 2 teeth of Bear and 
fragments of bone, in the fourth foot-level, February 23, 1874. 
The entire number of noteworthy specimens of flint and chert (most of 
which, at least, have been made and used by man) which the Committee have 
found in the Breccia in the Long Arcade amounts to 27. 
The materials which Mr. MacEnery had dug up and cast aside in that part 
of the Arcade explored during the period over which the present Report ex- 
tends were found on examination to contain 13 teeth of Hysna, 9 of Bear, 
8 of Horse, 2 of Deer, 1 of Ox, several bones, numerous lumps of coprolite, 
and 1 flint flake (No. 6328). The specimens thus overlooked or neglected 
by the earlier explorers, which have been recovered by the Committee in the 
Long Arcade from first to last, are 63 teeth of Hysena, 15 of Horse, 9 of Bear, 
7 of Rhinoceros, 4 of Deer, 3 of Ox, 1 of Elephant, 1 of Fox, numerous por- 
tions of bones and of antlers, a large quantity of feecal matter, and 9 tools and 
flakes of flint and chert. 
Underhay’s Gallery.—Atabout 185 feet from the entrance of the Long Arcade 
in the Sloping Chamber there is in the left or eastern wall, as already stated, 
‘a small lateral branch, to which the Superintendents have given the name of 
*‘ Underhay’s Gallery,” after the late Mr. John Underhay, who for some years 
was Sir L. Palk’s guide to the Cavern. Before the Committee commenced its 
exploration its mouth was almost closed with the large masses of limestone 
mentioned in the Ninth Report as lying in wild confusion beyond “The 
Bridge” *. Notwithstanding this, Mr. Underhay and his son forced a passage 
into the Gallery several years ago, even though after passing the entrance they 
must have found the Granular Stalagmitic Floor within a foot of the roof in 
certain places. They contrived, moreover, to bring back several small bones, 
which proyed to be phalanges of human feet, which they had found on and in 
the Floor.
