Garden and Finds
Indian Skeleton
,To bring to light the skeleton
ot an Indian who entered the
Happy Hunting Grounds many
moons ago was an experience
"enjoyed" by A. Peckavet re-
cently. Mr. Peckavet lives near
McKay and the other day while
digging In his garden he struck
a rock which he decided should
be removed. It was whilo at-
tempting to remove the obstruc-
ton tn good gardening that the
skeleton was discovered.
The skull of the departed
bravo was flat and sloped back
abruptly from th eyes. The
man evidently was very large and
strong, according to the bones.
A thorough search of the burial
place was made by Mr. Pecka-
vet to bring to light any relics,
but in this search he was unsuc-
cessful. ;
. While Mr. Peckavet was here
today he promised the skull to
Lou Scharpf, who. In addition
to the business of banking, be--
ing president of the Commer-
clal association . and being a
good fisher and hunter, Is col-
lecttng Indian bones. Mr.
Scharpf now has in his posses-
slon a complete skeleton ot an
Indian which was discovered not
long since on the Alfred Smith
ranch. He has promises, to
