043 | About two years ago, when workmen were employed levelling a small Knoll in a back yard nearly opposite to the Aberdeen Town & County Bank, Rhynie, and when about three feet from the surface they came upon two urns firmly embedded in the earth, containing a quantity of burnt bones, which crumble into dust when exposed to the air. The Urns unfortunately were broken, in the taking of them up; one was ornamented, and the other was plain, in shape something similar to a small flower pot. The pieces of these Urns or remains thereof were forwarded by the Police Officer of Rhynie to the Procurator Fiscal of Aberdeen at the latter's request. |
