Thos. M. Callahan was at Newland yesterday when the human bones were being dug from the ground on the Hammond Keneazer farm. He brought several of the bones into town with him, carrying them in a paper sack. o The bones he brought were the lower jaw and part of an upper jaw, most of the teeth being in the jaws<. He said that there were apparently three skeletons, at least three skulls, 'but many of the bones were decayed and they fell into pieces when struck by the shovels of the diggers. Quite a number of people secured some of the bones. It seems quite certain that the bones were thoge of Indians. The finding of the arrow heads strengthens the belief, and no old settler in that part of the county recalls that bodies were ever buried there.
