beds of Dr. Pacetti's residence on. Cuna
street in St. Augustine an earthen pot or

have seen in their times. The shape is
cylindrical, about three inches in diame

larger at the base. In increases to near
ly a foot in diameter in the center of its
twenty inches in height. It is made of
clay, without ornaments, and is sup
posed to have been one of the crude
