The antiquities here delineated were found in a moss about a mile from Friers Carse, in summer 1790, by the workmen forming the turnpike road from Dumfries to Sanquhar. They consisted of two vessels very like modern saucepans, and the one was within the other, and fitted it most exactly. They are brass, tinned in the inside, and very neatly made. The one now entire, will hold near a quart, and the bottom is raised in circular ornaments exactly like the bottom of the broken one, which is delineated here. The outer one was broken through the stupidity of those who found them, but the inner one is intire; on its handle is in Roman capitals what I imagine to be the maker's name.
