Warnings were given as to the I threatened danger, but apparently J these were not regarded as serious. : Suddenly one morning two old pagan chiefs arrived on the scene, throwing earth over their head, a proceeding which it was thought, was intended to indicate that the visitors should go, as the people were getting out of hand. Definite news on the point is want- ,ing, but it is probable that this action was wrongly explained by the inter- preter as merely being a native form (of salute.

Near the head ct ihe bay is a small cove, which was vicited in the year 17"5 by three young men named Smith, MacCiinnis and Vaughan, ho drew their canoei ashore and ex- plored the noble groves of oaks. They came to a little clearing iu the centre of which ttte- <> a huge oak gashed with markings of an axe' A scout lower branch bad been sawn off at some dis- tance from the trunk, and to thi; natural derrick-arm had been attached it heavy block and tackle, as shown by the fur- rowed scar in. the bark. Directly be- neath this wis a circular depression of the imt" a dozen fret in diameter. The young men determined to iind what was buried there, and shortly re- turned to the spot to dig. They soon discovered that they were digging in a clWly detined haft, the wall* of which showed the marks of pick and shovel. Ten feet below the surface they came to a cover ng of heavy oak plank that was ripped out with much difficulty. At twenty feet another layer of planking waa uncovered, and digging ten feet deeper a third horizontal bulkhead wa* laid bare. The thiee men had done all they could without H larger force, hoisting machin- ery and other e<ju'piuein, and were forced to abandon tUeir u*k when the natives of Mahone Buy refused to aid the elite! pi i -i Half a dozen years later a company was organized tu continue the wurk. A gang oi laborers was mustered and the dirt began tu My. As before, ome kind of covering was disclosed at every ten feet.
