the great majority seem to lie on the
farm and consist of only the pieces
of vertebrata. These have clumped about
for years, some for 20 or 30 years,

specimens.
November 3rd
Spent the entire day over the
fields east of Creva Post Office.
Saw numerous bones but nowhere
any indication of a buried skeleton.
Then ever one finds Pecten, a certain
unsymmetrical echinoderm, and a
Tetractulini one is in the juglodon
hole and it is very common to find
in such place traces of bones. If
it where not for the invertebrates
collected the day would have been
a failure.
