ifi'iiAM Skelktox KourIi.- -While workmen
were digging a sewer hole in the rear of Mr
Samuel Swift's residence last Thursday after
noon, they came upon a box chisely nailed, sn I
ut onue it ruu through their mind probably a
fortune wo contained in th same. They
knocked the top of it off, when to their surprise
and consternation, instead of a large amounted
money they liebeld a well preserved human
skeleton. After due consideration the bone
were again placed in the box and rehuried. The
skeleton is generally believed to be that of a
man who a number of yean ago handed him
