is unusually near the top. It is four and one fourth long by nearly 

 one and one half inches thick. Fig. 92 is of flattened red sand- 

 stone, with a pointed eight-sided top above the groove. The 

 body is also angular and rather irregular. This came from 

 the Seneca River, between the lakes mentioned, and is three and five 

 eighths long by one and one half inches wide. 



Fig. 93 is of greenstone, generally cylindrical and slightly faceted. 

 The groove is deep and the top simple. This, with several follow- 

 ing, came from Brewerton. It is three and one half long by one 

 and one half inches wide. Fig. 94 is very broad, and is polished 

 and somewhat flattened. It is elliptic in section, and made of red 

 granite. It has shoulders but no groove, and is two long by one 

 and three quarters inches broad. A few closely resemble this. Fig. 

 95 is also shouldered, but without a groove, and is made of horn- 

 blendic gneiss. It is two and one half long by one and one eighth 

 inches wide. Fig. 96 is of greenstone, has a square head, and is 

 generally angular, with but slight curves. It is three inches long by 

 one and three eighths wide. 



Fig. 133 is of brown sandstone pyriform, and with a deep groove. 

 It is two and five sixteenths inches long by one and three eighths 

 broad. Fig. 134 has no groove, but one has been commenced. It is 

 of quartz and four-sided, but with the angles rounded. It is two and 

 one half inches long and one and one quarter broad. Fig. 216 is 

 reduced in the illustration, and is of a flattened and angular green 

 basalt, one and thirteen sixteenths inches long by one inch thick. 



A faceted greenstone, two and three fourths by one and one 

 fourth inches, has a small projection above the groove at the top. 

 A few are very slender. One of polished brown slate from Catskill 

 is of this kind. The outline is a long pointed ellipse. It is three 

 and seven eighths long by seven eighths of an inch in diameter. 

 Not unlike this, but with rounded ends is one of grey sandstone, 

 from Brewerton. It is also less slender, being three and three 

 quarters by one and one eighth inches. Many are ovoid and 

 grooved, but angular forms are common. One of these, from the 

 Onondaga Reservation, is eight-sided, the alternate faces being 

 wide and narrow. It is of light brown sandstone, three by one and
