142 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM 



An examimation of a collection in Jefferson county^ near Water- 

 town, shows curious forms in pottery. The narrow projecting 

 angles of some vessels extend outward 2^ inches, and may have 

 served for handles. Two examples of open handles occur^ but of 

 different forms. There is one small perforated disk. Several pipes 

 of the Jefferson county types have recently been found in Onon- 

 daga, and the early relations of the two groups are now more 

 distinct.
