Not a page of their history has ever been written by any save their foes, and the history thus written is so distorted and marred by prejudice that much of it is misleading. In the veins of the red man ran the wild poetry and imagination of the hunt, the chase, the battle, the capture, the dance, the forests, the valleys, the mountains, the streams, lakes and rivers, for a thousand generations; and yet they were without accomplishment in letters or arts. Is it, therefore, strange that they held in great reverence the traditions and legends common in their tribesrevered them as the early Christians revered the first copies of the sacred writings? These legends were told over again and again for unknown years. They 10 were transmitted from one to another, as the unwritten work of Freemasonry has been transmitted by frequent and careful repetition.
