1. Axe Head.—This implement, which is represented in Fig. 223, measures 3 inches along the cutting edge, 41⁄2 inches from the centre of cutting edge to the back of the hole for handle, and 2 inches through the centre of this aperture. A neighbouring farmer, who had carted a load of the stuff from the midden for potting plants, found this axe-head while making use of the stuff in his greenhouse, and returned it to me.
