NKW BRUNSWICK CAVES 
169 
From the Postmaster at Lynnheld, Charlotte Co., N. B. 
“ Goat Brook is an underground stream for some distance.” 
From George Draper, Postmaster, Campbell Settlement, 
York Co. 
“ There is a place in Water ville that is very good limestone, 
and in one place there is a hole that if one throws a stone into it, 
they can hear it rattle down as if it went from one to two hund- 
red feet.” [The limestones of Waterville are Silurian limestones, 
containing remains of encrinites. The writer has examined 
them several times, but heard nothing of the hole referred to.] 
From Mr. W. R. McMillan, Jacquet River, Gloucester Co. 
“ There is supposed to be an underground lake or deep stream 
in Archibald Settlement. A number of years ago a man was 
digging a well, and at the depth of about eighteen feet the bottom 
fell out, leaving him standing on a ledge of rock. He tried a 
pole around, and could not reach any sides or bottom to the 
water. Two or three years ago, when boring for water on 
higher ground, about 300 yards away, a pond of water was struck 
at what was supposed to be the same level as the other.” 
From Mrs. Noble Beatty, of French Village, Kings Co. 
“ On the top of a mountain facing French Village there is a 
cave, locally known as ‘ Adam’s Oven.’ It can be entered by an 
opening on its side, and egress may be made by a somewhat 
similar opening in the top. About three miles from here, on 
Charles Darling’s property, there is a very similar cave. It has 
a square entrance. The cave itself is very long, and has certainly 
been formed by nature.”
