Residents of this city have an especial interest in the expedition which has been described at length in newspapers and magazines, recently, which is exploring the tablelike summit of a towering mesa in the Grand Canyon, because of the presence in that expedition of Mitchell R. Tillotson, fonnerly of this city, a son of Dr. Demetrius Tillotson, now oT Greencastle. The plateau has never been explored by man and is believed to have among its fauna specimens which have come down from the pre-histor-ic era in the animal kingdom. News of the expedition’s first results came from Edwin D. McKee, chief naturalist of Grand Canyon National park, who clambered down the treacherous cliffs of the 4.000foot high “island in the sky” today. The name of the plateau is “Shiva

Temple.”

MeKe» brought word that Dr. Harold D. Anthony, mammalogy curator of the American Muesum of Natural History, would remain in the thick forest aloft but was in need of water. A strapping packer shouldered several canteens and picked his way upward again. Geologists have estimated that Shiva temple was cut away from the surrounding banks of the canyon many thousands of years ago. Its steep sides would indicate that forms of animal life found atop it were descendants of animals stranded there when the island was formed. The scientists hoped to discover animals differing from those of the surrounding mainland. Such specimens would indicate the effects of a different environment on creatures springing from the same stock as those on the canyon banks. Anthony, McKee, Tillotson, and the packers mounted Shiva temple. They struggled aloft, roped together, and were frequently forced to hoist each other by hand.
