An Address, Delivered Before the Was-ah Ho-de-no-son-ne or New Confederacy of the Iroquois - Also, Genundewah, a Poem

In Indian mythology may be found the richest poetic materials. An American Author is unworthy of the land that gave him birth if he passes by with indifference this well-spring of inspiration, sending liberally forth a thousand enchanted streams.

Joyous tidings, freedom from disease and disastersuccess in the chase, and on the war path were traceable to the Master of Life and his subordinate ministers:blight that fell upon the corn was attributed, on the contrary, to demoniac agency, and the shaft that missed its mark was turned aside by the invisible hand of some mischievous sprite. Deities presided over the elements. The Chippewas have their little wild men of the woods, that remind us of Puck and his frolicsome brotherhood, and the dark son of the wilderness, like our first parents My tent is pitched on the hunting grounds of the Senecas, (or So-non-ton-ons) and I deem it not inappropriate to select for my theme the Legend of their origin. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
