Letter To The Editor

I was somewhat "confused" to read in last Sunday's Union-Bulletin that recently discovered remains at the Marmes Rockshelter are the oldest ever found in the Western Hemisphere. This statement appeared with a picture showing visitors at the Rockshelter, and referring the "Skull fragments and other bones 11,000 to 13,000 years old..."

His remains had been discovered in 1925 by a Negro cowboy named George McJunkin, in the bank of an arroyo near Folsom, N.M.
