Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Indian in His Wigwam, or Characteristics of the Red Race of America: From Original Notes and Manuscripts
A good deal of historical interest clusters about this discovery of the inscribed stone. Tomlinson, the grandfather, settled on these ?ats in 1772, two years before the murder of Logan's family. Large trees, as large as any in the forest, then covered the ?ats and the mound. There stood in the depression I have mentioned, in the top of the mound, a large beech' tree, which had been visited earlier, as was shown by several names and dates cut on the bark. Among these, there was one of the date of A. D. 1784. This 1' have seen stated mder Mr. Tomlinson' s own hand. The place continued to be much visited from 1770 to 1790, as was shown.
