rock town ring above tbe waters of lake mailnawe in eastern ontano to observe religions ceremonies to worship before this great natural altar and to propitiate the gods who dwelt within ita granite maaa in tbe backwooda now live hundred years ago the big rock of bon echo was in the center of tbe greatest white pine forest tho world baa ever known and on a main highway between the north and lake ontario there were no backwoods in those dnjaj and tbe streams were tbe travel routes for the pagan people who followed the seasonal migrations of the nlrnala with which the forests teemed to them the big rock at bon echo must have been a thing of mystery aa it remains today both to nrche- ologurta and geologists none can reconcile the sheer untouched face with the glacial markings along its top and in the same way the paintings alone the face are an unsolved riddle who put them there t and what do they mean are unanswered questions along tbe face of the big rock a few feet above the watcrlme are the hieroglyphic records of an unknown pro pie painted in a virtually imperishable paint whose com position is unknown and which has defied the weathering effected of wind and water these records baffle the archeologtsu of the continent whether they haveawarllke or religious rignifi can cc is not known although some people hold that they record a great victory of the iroquois over the huron and algonquins and have been written in someinvolved ana mystic code a more conservative interpretation claims that the paintings of the big rock are trail marks records of the bunt signboards for other travellers tho natives of the backcountry claim that they hold the secret to the treasure cave located in the rock and that the solution of their riddle would open the entranceway to the long lost silver of the indiana from brockville to trenton on the shores of lake ontario the legend of meyeys cave has long persisted tbe bint of such a cave first came when the indians from the country to tbe north brought in bars of native silver to exchange for food and firearms for years they refused to discuss tbe source of their wealth with anyone but in time a trader by the name of john meyers who bad been brought up in association with indians was able to ingratiate himself into the confidence of two members of the tribe and in exchange for liberal quint ties of firewater they agreed to con duct him aortb late in the fall they set out made their wanp tbe moire and skootamatta rivers portaged from xou miahtifoache lake into lake maunay and came to the bi rock conflicting stories tell of meyers actual find one tells of n fissure between two hure masses of rock a lone entranciway through whi h the trader crawled and of s c ncrn at its end inn the fat pine torches carried by his drunken eui bi illumined the interior meyers found himself in nit an irregular cube fifty feet in sue and along whose sfden were piled rough cast bars ol native aitvir an one piled cordord the trader took what quantities of the metal he could place in his knapiacl and in his pockets and departed making as accurate a mental record of the location of the entranceway as he could his companions would not allow him to blaie a tree or to place n cairn tor 1 y this time they were becoming frightened oei heir betrayal of the secret the small party let out for home but crossing the lake at tho headwaters of the skoot river xheir canoe was swamped by a heajy otorm and the indians abandoned meyers who hadsnade hi way lo shore with difficulty in order to save hin ncl from drowning be as forced to throw away all i tit a small lanllty of silver earned in the pockets o vis coat ithout food his firearms gone ill net and hungry he reached belleville after ten davit hardship as a result of the

rewarded today in a sheltered hollow there are a few rotting logs at right angles to mark his home another expedition spent thousands ol dollars scraping the earth off the central portion of the rock
