I could hardly believe that the gentlemanly old Yeomans would deliver up his pretty daughter to the barbarians that came to claim her, and looked to see some one step forward and forbid the banns; but the ceremony proceeded as if every thing were satisfactory.
The father then uncovered her; she having made herself quite apparent before by wrestling with her little fists under the counterpane, and uttering a variety of wild and incomprehensible sounds. She proved a handsome baby, large and red, with a profusion of soft, dark hair. Port Angeles. Indian "Hunter" and his Wife. Sailor's Funeral. Incantation. Indian Graves. Chief Yeomans.

A number of fine agates of various kinds were found by Mr. F.C. Yeomans at the same locality. The meccanite from Cumberland, R.I., is often spotted with white quartz.
