Dif ference of Opinion as to What the History is While excavating yesterday after noon on Barrett Plaza preparatory to laying the foundation for the new Au gusta postofftce.

Further inves tigation revealed the fart that it was what it was thought to be. In addi tion to a complete skull, including lower Jaw bone with the teeth In splendid slate of preservation, one of the leg bone*, the backbone and ribs were discovered, also. Bones Found in Lime. Had tt been this alone to tell of, the find would have been nothing much out of the ordinary—nothing deserv ing of more than passing notice, for on several occasions before similar finds have been made when contrac tors have been excavating on the sites of buildings.

Who can tell? Anothar Theory. Another theory advanced is that the skeleton ts that of an Indian, for with the bones was also discovered a sti ver coin, which was smuggled away hy one of the negro workmen before it could be seen. There were no other mark*, however, that th# hone# were those of a Red Man. Ijutt. the theory Is given that the skeleton la that of one who tn the THE AUGUSTA HERALD.
