are in the case No. 2. The cave B mostly consists of lime- 
stone, with bones adhering to its sides : the top is closed up 
with stone rubble. The teeth and bones found in the cave A, 
were mostly covered with dirt, some of which will be found 
in all the cases ; part of the bones were lying on the dirt, and 
in crevices about the caves A and B. 
From the cave marked A, a passage has been discovered 
into what I call a gallery, marked C, which gallery opens into 
the face of the quarry at D. At E, some teeth and bones 
were found, which are contained in the case No. 5. The 
farther end of the gallery is not closed, but it is not suffici- 
ently wide for a man to creep into it. The sides of the gal- 
lery consist mostly of lime-stone, some clay, and stalactite. 
At F, the gallery was covered with masses or lumps of lime- 
stone, with much clay intermixed, and in general so compact 
that it required gunpowder to blast it asunder ; and continued 
so to the surface of the country, a height of 15 feet, as shown 
in the sketch. 
The general state of this quarry has been found to consist 
of more caves filled with clay, than any other ; and nearly 
under the entrance of the cave where the bones were found, ' 
I have dug down through clay of so stiff and hard a nature 
as to render it difficult to dig into it, and it continued so until 
I got to six feet below high water, when rock again appeared, 
but not compact. In this digging many lumps of iron ore 
were found in the hard clay. 
I have introduced a scale into the sketch, from which any 
distance may be measured. 
The distance from the cave A, to the commencement of 
the quarry or harbour, is 201 yards, and to the cave where
