Burial No. 1. — Thirteen inches above the original floor surface a 

 fully flexed adult, with the head to the south, was found. The 

 preservation of the material was poor, since the burial was exposed 

 on the roadside by the erosion of the mound surface. A piece of 

 drilled conch shell was found near the neck of the skeleton. 



Burial No. 2. — On the ground floor of the mound a partially flexed 

 adult, with the head to the north, was found. 



Burial No. 3. — On the ground floor of the mound a partially flexed 

 adult burial, with the head to the north, was found. The preserva- 

 tion of the skeletal material was poor. 



Burial No. i. — Eleven inches below the present mound surface the 

 partially flexed skeleton of an adult was found. The head was to 

 the south. The preservation of the skeletal material was poor. 



Burial No. 5. — On the original ground surface a burial was indi- 

 cated by the presence of some much-decayed bones. The orientation 

 and disposition of the bones could not be determined. 



Burials Nos. 6 and 7. — Portions of three bodies were found to- 

 gether. The nature of the burial was difficult to determine, for be- 

 sides portions of an adult burial and a fragmentary skull there were 

 portions of a child's skeleton and several teeth of a child. The head 

 of Burial No. 6 was to the north and that of No. 7 was to the south. 

 The poor preservation of the bones was due to the action of the roots 

 of trees. 



Burial No. 8. — Portions of a skull and the lower limbs of a fully 

 flexed adult were found 22 inches above the original ground floor. 

 The preservation of the bones was poor. 



Burial No. 9. — Just below the mound surface the bones of an adult 

 were found. The skeletal material was so nearly disintegrated that 

 the disposition could not be determined. A flint spear point was 

 found in association. 



Burial No. 10. — At a depth of 10 inches above the ground floor 

 a crushed skull was found beneath .the base of a tree. No other bones 

 were observable. 



Burial No. 11. — Twenty inches above the ground floor the skull, 

 ribs, and clavicle of an adult were found. All the bones were in 

 very poor condition. 



Burial No. 12. — A poorly preserved adult burial was found 18 

 inches above the ground floor. The burial may have been associated 

 with Burial No. 11. 



Burial No. 13. — Some 15 inches above the ground floor, in an area 

 20 inches by 10 inches, a burial of bones, seemingly not in anatomical 

 order, was found. The teeth were found under the legs and under 

 the pelvis. The burial had the appearance of a bundle burial of 

 bones, as is shown in plate 127, a.
