194 The American Geologist. September, 1902 
taken. It is not at all likely that the four geologists who made 
the recent joint examination, and who are supposed to be ex- 
pert in the detection of all irregularities in the ground and all 
such variations that would be implied in the existence of a 
modern burial at this place, would have failed to observe the 
disturbance which such a burial would have produced. Again, 
on the authority of Mr. Long it appears that such former 
burial place was at a distance of three miles from the place ot 
which this skeleton was found. 
Still the same imputation can be brought against this skele- 
ton as against numerous other alleged human relics discovered 
in glacial or pre-glacial deposits, viz. : no scientist was present 
at the time of discovery to vouch for the fact and to verify the 
place and the surroundings of the skeleton. N. H. W.
