Mounds On The Upper Hovey Place, Randolph County.

In woods, on the banks of a "lake," or former course of the river, about one quarter mile northeasterly from the landing on the Upper Hovey Place, the property of Mr. G. H. Hovey, of Pocahontas, Ark., are two small mounds, the larger less than 4 feet in height and about 40 feet in diameter. In this mound, almost entirely dug out previous to our visit, were sunk by us a number of trial-holes in places left by former digging. No results were obtained except to find several small fragments of human bones in material thrown out from earlier holes. The smaller mound was investigated by us without success.

Cemetery Near Mitchell's Log-camp Landing, Randolph County.

About 1.5 mile in a northerly direction through the woods from Mitchell's Log-camp Landing, is the house of Mr. William Anderson. In an enclosure adjoining his house, used for the cultivation of flowers and vegetables, bones had been brought to light in the course of cultivation. Some digging had been done by members of the family. Many trial-holes sunk by us yielded two skeletons of adults, both closely flexed, one on the right side, the other on the left. There were found also disturbed bones belonging to the skeleton of an adult and to one of a child.
    At this point, owing to ill success and on the assurance of our agent, who as we have said, had searched the territory for us in advance, that the region to the northward was not more promising than that we had been over, we abandoned further search on Black river.
