County. Others might be described, and among these, those with 

 two raised heads. 



Fig. 101 is of white marble, and has the short stem nearly at a 

 right angle with the bowl. The angles and bowl are rounded, and 

 the latter is chiseled within. This is from Wayne County, and is 

 two and three eighths inches high. Fig. 102 is a stemless pipe bowl 

 of dark soapstone, one and seven eighths inches high. It is curved 

 and polished, and the rim has deep curves between the two raised 

 points. It is a rare form, and comes from the Seneca River. 



Fig. 103 is a bird pipe of dark green slate, from the Oneida River. 

 It is moderately thick, and there is a perforated projection in front, 

 to which ornaments may have been attached. It has wings and 

 feathers, a cockscomb, and an engraved collar or necklace, as well 

 as a thick open bill. The form and work are modern. One much 

 like this, but ruder, is in the Canadian collection at Toronto. This 

 has a simpler crest, thicker bill, and less detail than the New York 

 pipe, and is but four and one fourth inches high, while the former 

 is seven and one half inches. 



Fig. 104 is a flat turtle pipe of yellowish grey stone from the 

 Oswego River. ,It is two and one half by two and one fourth inches 

 across, and but seven eighths of an inch high. This form occurs 

 elsewhere, both in New York and Canada, and might be called a 

 platform pipe. Fig. 105 is a very rude and low soapstone platform 

 pipe, from the east end of Oneida Lake. It is one and three quar- 

 ters by one and one half inches. Fig. 106 is a black marble pipe 

 from the Seneca River. It is perfectly plain, but otherwise much 

 like some already described. From tip to tip it is three and three 

 eighths inches. 



Fig. 107 is almost globular, and of grey quartzite. There is a 

 groove around the center, and radiating cuts at the top. The height 

 is two and one quarter inches, and it comes from Van Buren. Fig. 

 108 is a small black and broken pipe from Canandaigua, much con- 

 tracted between the low bowl and swollen base. It is not quite one 

 and one half inches high, and is from a recent site. It seems an imi- 

 tation of some European forms. Fig. 109 is a long platform pipe, 

 perhaps made by the Cherokees. The platform is perforated at the
