BRINSLEY (Contributed) Robert Cunningham, while working in a bean field two and a half miles west of Clandeboye on his farm, had the good luck to find what might be called Adam’s whetstone — but some scientists who have seen it de­ clare that Adam was never on the American continent. More declare it belonged to the man in . the moon and dropped from there to the American continent. Still more declare that Adam was trans­ ported to the moon for trans­ gression, and is what is known as the man in the moon—there­ fore it is Adam’s whetstone. This grand looking object is at The Times-Advocate office for anyone to see for a period of thirty days.
