An interesting collection of relics and skeletons from the mounds of southern Mississippi has recently been unpacked in the Peabody Museum. The collection was made by Dr. Charles Peabody and Mr. W. C. Farrabee, who spent last May and June excavating mounds in Coahoma County, Mississippi, with the help of a company of ten men.
