26 A circular work was on the terrace not far back of Clarence 

 village. This site is about 2^4 miles south of Clarence. 



zy Village site and fort, a mile beyond, contained less than an 

 acre. The bank and ditch were irregular in size and there were 

 caches within. The work is on " la sandy, slightly elevated peninsula, 

 which projects into a low-tangled swamp." The outline is elliptic 

 and a cemetery was near. On the plate it is said to be lYi miles 

 southwest of Clarence hollow, but the text seems to place it north 

 (Squier, p. 79, pi. 11). 



2^ A mile eastward was an ossuary with four hundred skeletons, 

 and in the same field w^ere recent and early relics. A rude sepulture 

 was in the rocks (Squier, p. 79).
