Middle-sized tumulus; grave about three feet deep. The coffin had passed the fire; the bones were almost gone. Nothing, but the blade of a knife. The bones of two skeletons, lying in all directions, were found in getting down: doubtless they were disturbed at the interment of the last buried person, whose remains lay in the bottom of the grave.
