    a corner a great big heap of stones among these stone we saw a form of a bridge. We turned the stones and with the fall we found a dozen of old pikes and one sword; it had a great copper handle. the handles of the pikes were wooden handles and they fell away in dust.
    The name of the hill was Morty hill/ We gave this to John Heie and what ever he did with this old sword was not known.
