flattish cylinder tapering slightly toward the ends, which are
truncated. In one end a hole has been bored one-half an inch in
diameter and three-fourths of an inch deep. A narrow, shallow groove
encircles the implement near the middle. The material is a grayish
slate. The form is symmetrical and the surface quite smooth.
Found upon the surface in Hamilton County, Indiana.
