Jan: Last week, as some workmen were employed in getting stone near the road leading from Coleford to Lydney, and nearly opposite the farm house of Mr CONSTANT, they discovered, about two feet below the surface of the ground, the skeleton of a human being, in length five feet two inches, lying upon its back. The mysterious circumstance excites much interest in the neighbourhood, and strong suspicion is entertained that it was the body of some person who had been murdered and buried there.
