"Seme jieeple Imagine that men iu my

"The scenic artist ncrks iijkm a graii'lrr

the same as tbe ethers.
"Te prove the truth of this states I netd

OLt MISSION CHURCII, ISS3.
Early in the year 1810, Jehn Stevvnrt,
a free colored mulatto from Virginia,
vvns converted nt Marietta and joined
the Methodist Episcopal church. Soen
afterward, vvliile praying alone in the
fields ene day, he claimed te have heard
a veice from the heavens commanding
him te go In'a northwesterly direction
This he interpreted te be n tlivine calling
for him te go as a missionary te the In
dians, and, though ignorant and un
authorized and uneuceittaged by the
church, he btartcd out upon his mission."
He traveled alone en feet, and though
he passed through many villagca nnd
encountered many Indian camps, he did
net fctep until he arrived at tlie old In
dian village of Upier Sandusky, the
chief town of the WyamleU, This he
believed te be hiitlcstinatien, nnd though
regarded vvith disfavor nnd treated vvith
every indignity he stepped and settled
down.
TI ic 'Wyandot Indians occupied a large
reservation about Upper Sandusky,
which had been nn Indian town from
earliest tradition. This trihe came origi
nally from Canada, vvliere many of their
nncestern had been converted te the
Catholic faith by the early, French Jesu
its. Thpy vvcrerather n vvailike people,
but were pessussed of a high degree of
intelligence, and tea certain extent fol
lowed the arts of civilization. Ter the
first dozen years of the century two Jes
uit priests had lived among them nt Up
per Sandusky, but they left in 1812;- nnd
when Stevvnrt caiue, fsur jears later,
net ever half a tleen of the tavnges ro re
mained true te the Catholic faith, tbe
rest having geno back te paganism.
Stevvai t found living mneng the Indians,
Jonathan Pointer, a negre whom he had
known many years befote iu Yiiginin,
and after a long struggle he was per
suaded te act as an interpreter te Stovv Stevv
nrt, who could net fapeak ti weik of the.
Indian language. Stewart preached his
first fccrnum te ene Military old bquaw
nnd thu second one te the same old squaw
and an old crippled brave bhe had brought
along. His audiences seen increased,
however, and liu continued te pi each
with great fervor, though the effect of
many Ecrmeti3 vvns bpeilcd by his in
terpreter, who was a thorough pagan,
often lemai Icing nftei the translation of
a sentence: "That's what the preacher
mjs, but I don't believu it," etc.
Soen a few converts were gained, how
ever, und, a start hav ing otice been made,
ethers followed rapidly, Jonathan, the
interpreter, being among them. One of
tin. tlrst cenvei Is of note was Ik'tvvcen
the Legs, chief of the Hear tribe, who
aftei wards became a famous Indian
preacher and was licenced by the Methe--tlst
Episcopal chinch. Monenciie and
oilier chiefs weie also seen converted.
UcKrtsef Stewart's gieat biiccessnmeng
the Indians were toen bpicad ever the
country and made a deep impression
among icligieiis people. It was his labors
which iuspiicd a call for the memorable
meeting in thu Bowery Methodist Epis
copal church in New Yeik city en the
night of April e, lel'J, en winch occasion
the Missionary and llible society of the
church vvuseigauized.

labors. In 1821 the converted Indiana
petitioned tlie Ohie conference for n
regular missionary te be cent te them
nnd for the establishment of cchoeb in
which their childicn uheuld be educated
in the ways of civilization. Itev, Jamc'
Finley was sent te them and ni rived en
Oct. 8, 18"21, with his family and Miss
Jane Parker and Hiss Ilanlet Stu'eba te
net ns teachers.
With his own hands Finley built a
leg house te shelter ids family and been
after had a large double leg mission nnd
school house built. The eite chosen was
en high r,iouuden the neith bank of
the Sandusky river, north erst of the
Tillage, but a fuw mils Hern a bprmg

militia -amped in 18U, when en their
way te Ft. Meigs, and vhere a number
of th) soldiers bleep in iminaikcd
graves.
Iu this mission heuse tbe Indian
maidens were taught te cook, bake and
low, vv hile outside, in Held, nt unv il and
nt bench, the "young men learned the
trades of civilization. Thus was started
the tlrst Industrial school en the conti
nent. The number of converts continued te
increase rapidly nnd seen a siiecial place
of worship was needed. In 1824 Finley
went te Washington, nnd after a long
interview with President alonreo he so se
cured uid. Hen. Jehn O. Calhoun, sec
retary of war, appropriated 1,333.33 for
the use of the mission. Finley returned
at once nud had a stene church built
near the mission house. Tlie stene was
quart icd from the river nud was of nil
sizesaud shapes. The walls were neatly
plastered and oak benches, and a walnut
pulpit put inside.
The bones of the beloved Stewart, who
had died the year before, were interred

building, and iu a bert of semicircle

much against their will, which prerkUd
that they should gire up their lands

is Bait! that they did net want te sign

persecution. It is also said that some of
the leading oppesers were nssasslnated
by government agents.
In the spring of 1843 they began te
make preparations te leave, but it was
midsummer before they get away. On
the Sunday before they departed they
all gathered at the old church and held
solemn farewell services. They started
en July 12, 1813, going by wagon te Cin

were TOO in nil, and half of them were
Christians. A small remnant of the
tribe still resides in Kansas.

west they deeded tlie ediilce te the 51. E.

be desecrated.
Fer u t line after the Indians left, the
church and graves were kept up, but
they were seen forgotten, and t':e reef

and carried off the benches, nnd the
