Mound and Cave
  No bones have been found in it; but from a smaller one, a number of bones belonging to a giant race have been taken jaw bones which would go overt the whole chin of a man, and teeth correspondingly large; the teeth remained sound, but other bones crumbled on exposure to the air.

A Skeleton of a Giant Found
 The bones were all of large proportions, and the monstrous skull, with teeth perfect and intact, was more than a half an inch thick at the base. A number of copper pieces, evidently worn for ornaments, a stone pipe and a quantity of arrowheads were found with the decaying bones. The air had scarcely reached the receptacle when the bones broke and crumbled into dust.

ANCIENT BURIAL PLACE
(Augusta. Chronicle)
       Everywhere between the mouths of Locust and Bracken creeks, skeletons of great size and of great number have been found.  When Gen. John Payne dug his cellar 110 skeletons, were taken up in the space of 60×70 feet. They were of all sizes from seven feet long to those of infants. Many arrow heads have been found and earthenware of clay and pounded mulch. Some of the largest trees of the forest were growing over these remains when the land was cleared in 1792. The Indians had no tradition about these people. We are lost in conjecture as to who they were and how they become extinct.

   David Kilgour (who was a tall and very large man) passed our village at the time I was excavating my cellar, and we took him down and applied a thigh bone to his. The man, if well-proportioned, must have been 10 to 12 inches taller than Kilgour, and the lower jaw bone would slip on over his, skin and all. Who were they? How came their bones here?

Antiquities
There are a number of mounds in the county, but generally of small size. In 1837, one was examined in which were found the skull and thigh bones of a human being of very large frame, together with a silver snuff box, made in the shape of an infant's shoe.
