Madison Bowlder is 90 feet long, feet high and 40 feet wide, being roughly rectans in cubic contents could therefore mated at 136,800 feet. Cochezan Rock is 58 its northern side, 70 feet feet long on on its south- ide at its_eastern end, ern, and its maximum height is 60 feet. Thi. jular in_shape and its contents less casily estimated than thos claimant to the greates this continent. By length of sides and allowing something off its heigit on account of the rounded top 176,000 feet would be a fair esti- mate, leaving Madison bowlider chance to grow 39,200 cubic fect be. fore reaching the size of Cochegan, the difference being enough larger stone than most want to carry far. of its rival in FUNERALS.
