Found a scraper made of flint while digging in my garden a few weeks ago. Not a real good one, was probably used a lot or discarded because not up to standards. Old as chip marks are worn smooth. Small hill to the South East of the house, that I played on as a child, lots of flint chips were on that hill. Early Americans probably sat up there and chipped while watching the Platte River. Platte is down this year, ankle to knee deep, means irrigation water shortage. Last few years water levels have been 9 feet plus, making the North Platte River a real dangerous river. Plan on doing some rock hunting in the river soon. W H King

In the 1960's, teaching in Yoder, WY, three young men came to me. "Mr. King we found the body of a Native American." I replied, "How do you know that it was a Native American?" Reply. "By the artifacts." "Can the remains be moved?" "No, the bones are just an outline in the soil" "Mr. King the sternum didn't look right, so I took my pen knife and dug into the ground." Then he held out his open hand with 3 32 caliber ball slugs. There eyes were sad. I said, "Now you know how the West was won." They covered the remains, the artifacts, and never disclosed the site. RIP
