Ten feet below the surface of the
little stream near Chlcora Cemetery,
workman under H. C. McNeill who
weia digging the foundation for a
bridge pier uncovered a wooden mor
tar used by Indian* for grinding corn
and a quantity of arrow heeds lad
week.
Although a large piece of the mor
tar had been broken from the upper
edge it was in a perfect stale of pre
servation and showed evidence of it
markable skill in its manufacture It
evidently had been broken before it
was discarded by its user*. The thing
la certainly 500 years old, sines at
least that time moat have elapsed to
have allowed to much to accumulate
over it.
It Is bolloved by Mr. McNtill that
this point was that at which many
of tha flint arrow heads were manu
factured, since there is e great pile
of flint scraps and many finished ar.
row heads.
Before the Scotch tattler* came up
the Cep* Fear the sections around
Dunn were inhabited by the Chlcora
Indiana. It Is believed that this tribe
bad one of its principal villages near
Chicora.
The mortar found by Mr. McNeill
is displayed la tha Hood and Gran
tham show window. It will b* *«hib
ited with other Indian relica at the
Dunn fair.
