I therefore left it for the present, but thought that in time we might get this, with whatever others might be found there.
I was introduced to a Mormon in the neighbourhood, who invited me to excavate a large mound close to his house.

He would even help to dig, he said, and I was free to take whatever I might find inside of it.

He was sure that there would be no difficulty about the mummies I might want to remove from the burial caves..
