HISTORIC RELICS.
AN OLD CEMETERY. (Received 1.30 p.m.) SYDNEY, This Day. Excavations for electric light mains in the vicinity of the Town Hall disclosed a number of coffins and a quantity of human remains. The Town Hall site was formerly a cemetery, which, was closed in 1819, when supposedly the whole of the coffins were removed to Rookwood. The present discoveries will be left undisturbed. — A. and N.Z.
