BOPS BODES OF
IMIWUH ANIMAL
What may prove to be a valu-
able discovery was that of petri-
fied bones of a prehistoric animal
by O. T. Kelley, farme*, some
weeks ago in a ditch between the
Super farm and the S A. Harbi-
son farm, two miles west of town.
Mr. Kelley just happened to see
something white sticking out of
the bank of the ditch and inves-
tigated and found it to be a bone
apparently petrified and was dif-
ferent from ordinary bones in
that it was rot solid, but was
in sections interlocked,'apparent-
ly that of a hugh reptile. When
the fact was made known Wilbur
Grayson made further investiga-
tion und found a bed of bones,
the extent of which is not deter-
mined . Some of these with very
large, one especially, that of a
ball that fitted into a socket, was
at least six inches in diameter.
Another that had been broken
with a hammer showed in the
center the petrified marrow more
than an inch in diameter. Gray-
been in charge of the work in
Fannin county six years/ has been | son said there are evidently tons
transferred to Clarksville. Mr. of these bones to be found in the
Glendinning spent a short time in bed, and he plans to advise the
highway constructian worK in State University of the find for
this county several years ago.
This change was reported pend-
ing several days ago, but the de-
tails were not learned unt. Satur-
day. Mr. Glendinning was here
Saturday and met a number of
Clarksville people. Mi. and Mrs.
Heath have made a host of friends
who regret to see them leave.—

seems that no one here has ever
