Jan. 12th. Theo and Carrie at the Valley. The tomb proves to be filled with an accretion of gravel and dried mud 5 ft. deep - exceedingly hard. Ayrton began the clearing this morning - at the S.W. corner, and on reaching 2 ft. from the bottom, came upon a deposit of silver and gold objects of most unique importance and value. They were busy with these all afternoon - containing cartouches of Sety II and Tausert - all of which Theo brought home with him.
Mr. and Mrs. Weigall, and Mrs. Craggs and Ayrton to dinner.
