foot or more, with a poor quality of red
clay. It lies so dense and firm that, in
digging wells in the stockade, no walls or
curbing was used. When wet it is readi
ly washed away by the crocks, and accu
mulates along their beds, as quicksand, or
in higher beds where, when dry, it pre
sents a very white, clear appearance.
The stockade lies on two sides of a
small creek, fully two-thirds of it being
on the North side. This creek takes its
rise in a large spring, a few rods West of
the railroad, and, uniting with another,
runs under n culvert, and is increased by
several others before it reaches the stock-
ado, in which it receives three more.—
About half a mile beyond the stockade,
this creek falls into a larger, called the
drinking-vessels; wooden paddles, small
pieces of iron, beaten thin, preciously pre
served for many uses, and small scraps of
iron,, futively hid in convenient crevices
lie scattered about. The bones which
they had picked were broke to pieces for
the marrow.

gourds, and cow-peas, growing from seeds

of the stockade is considerably lower than
that of tlie railroad, since it is half a
mile further down the creek. The swam
py borders of the creek are about eight
rods wide, (including both sides), and
consists partly of a soft, black mud, and
partly of a quicksand. They arc covered
with a growth of small willows, swamp
grasses of various sorts, and cat o’-nine-
tails ; and can only be crossed on boards
or logs. This tnud gives forth an offen
sive odor of decayed vegetables, but when
continually trodden down and exposed to
the rays of the sun, this was, perhaps,
dissipated. The northern bank was quite
steep, originally, though it has been caved
and worn away by rains, and covered
with small, sharp stones, very severe to
shoeless feet.
The ground rises, after the first ascent,
by a slow grade, to the end of the stock
ade, where it is, perhaps, sixty feet above
the level of the ereck. The south bank
is more gentle, and the ground in rear of
it much lower than the other. The road
from the station winds along the edge of
the creek, crossing a bridge or two over
its branches, and enters the stockade on
the north bank.
The stockade, cemetery and station,
stand in a cleared space of about a mile
in distance, the eastern side of which is
about fifty rods from the outer wall of
the stockade, and the western side about
an equal distance beyond the railroad.—
All about this space stands an almost un
broken wall of pine trees, tall, straight
and sombre. Within a third of a mile
from the stockade stand hundreds of fat
pines.

upright in the ground, five feet in the
