fetlock bones of the horse; but it evidently belongs to a different, 

 and probably a larger, animal. The Figure is less than half size. 



Ox. No. 9 corresponds exactly with the innermost gi-inder on 

 the right side of the under jaw of an ox, having the additional lobe 

 belonging to that tooth. It differs from the same tooth in the stag, 

 not only in size, but in shape ; and still more from that in the horse, 

 to which we at first assigned it. The animal must have been large, 

 as the masticating surface is an inch and three quarters long, and 

 three quarters broad. No. 10 is one of the half expanded molar teeth 

 of a large ox, or of an enormous stag. It is the foremost grinder on 

 the left side of the upper jaw. Many other ox teeth have occurred. 



Deer or Elk. No. 13 is the root of a stag's horn, of a large size, 

 being above three inches in diameter. The elk having been found of 

 a prodigious size, the tooth, No. 10, may have belonged to it; especially 

 as we have several large grinders, which appear, from their thinness, 

 to be those of the stag, rather than of the ox. There are several 

 bones which either animal may claim ; such as the shank bone. No. 

 4; which is more than double the length and breadth of the Figure. 



HyjENA. The remains of this carnivorous animal are by far the 

 most abundant; particularly portions of the lower jaw, and tlie teeth 

 belonging to it. No. 15 is a specimen of the left side of the under 

 jaw, nearly entire; shewing the tusk, and four grinders; the last of 

 which is sharp like an incisor tooth, and displays a double cone, 

 having an additional lobe. The jaw is above six inches long. 



Wolf or Dog. Fig. 2, PI. XVII, shews the tusk on the right 

 side of the inferior jaw of an animal of this kind; with two of the 

 sockets of the incisor teeth. We have seen no other specimen. 



Bear. Having obtained one or two large tusks, much greater 

 than those of the hyaena, and of a form and size exactly corresponding 

 with the bear's tusk from the German caverns, Parkinson's Org. Rem. 

 HI. PI. XXII. Fig. 9, we do not hesitate to assign them to this genus.
