1 94 British Urn found at Macksmill By J. Hardy. 



Benton, " with the mouth looking downwards. One small piece 

 was broken off and could not he found. Other pieces were broken 

 off by the finder. The urn was very soft — the late Eev. Mr Stobbs 

 and I were sent for at the time — and we wound it round with band- 

 ages to keep it together till it dried. It is of a brown colour, 

 formed of rough clay, and is 9 ins. high ; the diameter across the 

 mouth and bottom being 6 ins., and across the middle 9 ins." 



The urn, as will be seen by the cut, is tastefully ornamented, 

 and not exactly in the common style. The figure is from a photo 

 furnished by Mr Eobert Kenton, at whose house in Greenlaw 

 the original may be seen.
