rows facing each other.—Young, p. 19. This was on B. F. Denni- 
son’s farm, on the Jamestown road near Sinclairville—U. S. bur. 
of eth. p. 510. -There was also a nearly circular work 60 rods 
north of this and on William Scott’s land. It had a depression in 
the center and a gate at the north. It is on lots 30 and 38._U. S. 
bur. of eth. p. 510. There are cinder heaps on the farm of John F. 
Phelps, a mile south of Sinclairville. 
24 There were two breastworks on the north and south bounda- 
ries of Sinclairville, with a large circular work between them. The 
gate was on the south side. Six or seven acres were inclosed in 
the heart of the village. On a high bluff above Mill creek on the 
west was a circular work with deep excavations.—Young, p. 19-20. 
A slightly curved bank, without gateways and 100 rods long, crosses 
Sinclairville from bluff to bluff, precipices defending the other sides. 
The area is nearly square-—Cheney, p. 45, pl. 9. Mr Cheney’s plan 
is given in fig. 3, on a scale of 1000 feet to the inch. 
25 There are two works on the farm of John Almy, South Stock- 
ton, a mile across the Cassadaga valley and nearly 60 reds from 
the dividing lines of Gerry and Ellery. The larger and southeast- 
ern one is in the shape of the letter D, the straight line fronting 
the eastern edge of the bluff. A northwest gateway connects with 
a ravine, across which is the gate of the smaller, opposite and 
circular work about 6 rods away. The latter incloses half an acre.— 
Larkin, p. 50, fig. 11. Dr Larkin’s plan appears in fig. 17. There 
was a circular work 60 rods south of this, on the farm of S. M. 
Tower. It “was a true circle, facing the south and divided in 
the center by a straight line.’ This was on a plain on the west 
side of the Cassadaga valley. From the western side of the fort 
a ditch, 20 rods long, reached a stream at a hight sufficient to 
carry the water within the walls, inside of which were hearths, 
caches, pottery and arrowheads.—Larkin, p. 53. Mr Reynolds re- 
ports these rather differently. The one on the Tower farm is 80 
rods south of the others, and is a circle inclosing two and a half 
acres. The others are in South Stockton, 4 miles southwest of 
Sinclairville, and both are called circular works. The smaller fort 
has a north and south axis of 132 feet, and an east and west axis of
