found during the previous year. Having now stimulated the 
men by the promise of pecuniary reward to increased care 
and search, in the course of a few weeks I was in possession 
of the other femur, the right and left humerus, the left radius 
and ulna, two scapulae, the tibia and fibula, the pelvis, three 
specimens of the astragalus, the right os-calcis, one carpal, 
and five entire meta-tarsal bones, a large portion of the 
cranium, and part of the lower jaw, with the two straight in- 
cisors, fragments of the upper and lower jaws, with the molar 
teeth, together with examples of nearly all the incisive and 
canine tusks and teeth, two cervical, seven dorsal, and nine 
lumber vertebrae, the sacrum, numerous fragments of ribs, 
and a large quantity of fractured bones from various parts 
of the skeleton. 
From an examination of the teeth alone, thus obtained, 
without taking into account those which were destroyed, (of 
which fact I had undoubted evidence), I found that there 
had been two adult individuals,* one considerably larger than 
the other ; but whether this difference in size was owing to 
age, or merely a sexual distinction, I am not aware, but I 
presume the latter is the cause, as we always find the males 
provided with defensive weapons of greater magnitude than 
the females. That both were adult I have no doubt, and one 
I believe to have been a very old animal, from the surface 
of the molar teeth being so much worn down, as well as the 
extremities of the great incisors. Besides these, I found frag- 
ments of canine teeth evidently belonging to a young 
animal, the extremities of which are perfectly smooth 
and pointed ; also some meta-tarsal bones and vertebrae, 
of which the epiphyses had been separated and lost, 
and also a portion of a scapula was obtained, with the 
* Since this paper was read, a much larger example of the canine tusk has 
been found, belonging to a third and more aged individual, as also some other 
bones.
