A SUNDAY School Convention was held
in the 31. E. Church at Forksville, Sulli
;au Co., Pa., Wednesday, May 8, 1878, in
thibe seasons : morning afternoon and ev
ening.
The attendance 'was good, considering
that this is a farming community, and
the people are very busily engaged in ag
ricultural pursuits. Six Sunday Schools
were represented in.the convention. The
convention was not denominational in
character, but all Sunday School workers
were invited to attend and participate in
the business, and di#ussions that might
come before the house.
A programme had been previously pre
pared for the occasion, and was followed
during the convention to the satisfaction
of all concerned. A number of well Pre
pared essays were read, and the discus
sions were spirited and instructive.
Sunday Schools were recommended' to
all as among the best
,means, if rightly
conducted, for educating the young WO°
principles of the Christian religion. -
The Convention appeared anxious that
Sunday Schools should advance the, King
dom of our Lord, JESUS CHRIST, and
bring glory to his name, in being an in-
strumentality for the conversion' of sin
ners to the Saviour.
. .
A vote WilS taken to organize an associ
ation to be called "The Forks . _ and Elk
land Association," and a committee was
elected to draft a constitution and by-laws.
We hope to make our Sunday • Schools
more value to all concerned. - .

A FEW COriItECTIONS DESIRED.—Tbe
Illustrated History of Bradford County is
a Very valuable book, and shows a vast
amaunt and variety -of research. None
but those who have attempted such a
work can know how much real toil this
has reqpired, and how easy it is for occa
sional errors. to creep in.
To illustrate the magnitude of the'•en
terprise, let me state that the fourteen
pages ofßaptist History, (126 to 110,)
compose over ttrenty-ficc hundred proper
names, dates, and numbers. .These are
what may be called arbitrary facts, which
i .rely be determined by this connec
tion with other words as most ordinary
writings makbe. I have not gone throngh
all my authorities a second time, to rer
ify those two thousand and five hundred
names, etc., but I think the printers have
been more than ordinarily successful in
putting them in type correctly. Owners
of the History, however, are requested to
make—with pen or pencil—the following
corrections :
On Op 133, Column 1, lino 7 from bot
tom; write.lifey-three for "eighty-three."
Or page 135, column-1, line 17, write
Jere,» y. for " - W. II." H. DUPER.
136, column 1, line 24, Cheyntiug for
• " Tioga."
137, column 2, near bottom, Hendryx
'for "Hendry," and 1866 for "1856•"
140, (Litchfield) S. 0. Cqrmer for
"CARNER."
Same page, (Tuscarora) Siloam for
"Sylvan;►," (right in same copies).
Same page, column 2. footings up of
first • table should bo 1571, instead of
"1585."
Some minor errors in spelling may be
overlooked; but these should be corrected:
lily sketch was prepared in 1787, mid
closes where the "Old School or Primi
tive Baptist" begins, near bottom of col
umn 2, page 140. .
Any one who can point
.to the original
'records of New :Bedford, Saga' Creek,
first Alba, colambia, Warren, Windham,
or W,ysox—or any writing.to suggest im
portant additions to or corrections of any .

1787, and when a child ter father's faint
ly moved to Heensboro.' From the latter
place they moved to Tioga. Pdtnt, now
Athens ; coming through the dense wil
derness on the old bridle trail on horse
back, arriving in the year 1806. Here
she taught 'two terms of school in the then
sparsely settled country. The next year,
1807; the' family moved to . Towanda.
Here ANN, as she was usuhily called, en
tered the Service of W. Means, living
with that family inglie "old . red tavern"
which was burned a few years ago, and
an interest in the welfare of the deceased
was ever evinced by Grandmother MEANS
and per descendants. In 1812 she, was
married to ANDREW .1. TROUT, with
whom sbe lived until he was accidentally
drowned at Shamokin October 10; 1831.
Being left a widow she again enter the
family of WM. MEANS, endeavoring to
careor her large family consisting of
live blip and two :girls. She remained
with the\family until Nov. 15,.1833,. when

'HISTORICAL NOTF.B QUERIES.—In
ho last number of the "Pennsylvania
Magazine of History and Biography," is
an interestirig critique by Jou"; GILMARY .
Siti A , L.L. D., of Elizabeth, N. J., on a
paper read by Gen.. JonN S. CLAM:, of
Auburn, N. Y., before the New York
Historical Society, at their April meeting,
1877,
t n " Champlain's Expedition into
Western New York in 1615, and QM re-
cent identification of the Fort." Thnti
introduced, a few wordspay not be inap
propriate as to the worlt.in
. which Gen.
CL:ktix is engaged, his methods and sonio
of his results
The well established principles of Phil
ology,.and tlie careful study of the an
cient languages of the East, have thrown
much light on the history of Oriental na-
tiuns, and enakled the scholar to' plve
many difficult questions respecting the
movements of these ancient peolile before
he historic period.
The aboriginecs of this continent hay
ng nowritten language r tad* means o
pursuing historic data except in the vague
and uncertain traditions prevalent among
them, in which the facts wore so. distort-
ed and covered tip, that as matters of his-
tort'; these traditions were well
.. tigh
worthless. Among the earlilt Etirolan
accounts of thisTeople were those of the
French - Jesuit Kiests who were sent nut
as missionaries, and French military com-
manders and adventurers who tntversed
the northern part of the country
7 est
ward -to the ildississippi, and wrote fill
descriptions of the people and .countries
they found. The must of these accounts
are still in existence. The Dutch bent
more 'on traffic, gave little attention to
the natives farther thati to purchase at
the cheapest rates their peltry. The Pu
ritans of New England, and Captain JOHN
SMITH, of Virginia, have left. valuable
data, but the accounts of none of these
parties go further back than the begin
ning of,the reve.nteenth century ;.:%rid then
these observations were confined to those
tribes living near the coast" and along the
shores of the great lakes. Beyond this
all was undertainty-for a long time after
wards. " For instance, no further inland .
than the valley: of the North Branch of
the Susquehanna, the_ first,: account we
have is that of CON RAD WFISER in 1737,
whose_journal,lmeagre as it is' in historic
data, is of great 'value. This valley, from
Tioga to Wyoming at that time was un-.
occupied; but there were traces of a. pre.-
svious occupancy, and on the traditions of
the, blood stained field were intimations
of hard fought battles and stubborn con
tests, \but who these- early inhabitants
were who so stoutly resisted encroach
ments of the conquering •Irottois, whence
they came 'and with what nations affiliat
ed were unanswered questions. It was
not long after Asi„S.isEit's Visit to our coun
ty, that . Delawares from the East, 'and
Shawanese from the ' South, . began to I
crowd into the 'valley:under the patronage
of the Iroquois.
.When the Scotch-Irish began to settle
on the Susquehanna, in Dauphin'County,-I
they found a remnant of whatiad once
been a powerful tribe of Indians \ called
Conestogas. Some years since Mr
identified these as the same nation
called by* the French writers Gal
qucs or Andastes, by the Dutch M.
by the Virginians Siisquehannas, oras ti.
word was spelled by Captain Jonti SMITH
in his narrative (1608) Sasquesalianough.
At the date just mentioned they were the
strongest Indian nation on the continent,
consisting at that time of not less than
ten distinct tribes, and having not less
than thirty towns. The first being great
ly weakened by a pestilence (query, was
it small-pox !) were almost entirely ester
minateAl by the Iroquois, theirlimplacable
.enemies. As this occurred not far from
fifty years before the beginning of WIL
LIAM PENN'S settlement in Pennsylvania,
until very recently the existence of the
Susquehanna nation wtisplinost complete
ly overlooked. Dr. EonElti:iis the first, of
Pennsylvania historians to assign to them
their real importance in our aboriginal
history, and the author of our county his
tory the first to show their early outman- .
cy of the Susquehanna valley in this
county.
Just at this point Ocn. CLARK'S invest
igation begins, and by a careful analysis
of the names, and of the ideas involved
in them, of their various towns and tribes,
is able to track these nations if not to
their origin at !east . ages farther back
than any writer has heretofore attempted, 1
among the valuable results alredidy.reach
ed with a good degree of certainty, are :
; .1. That the Susquehanna Indians be.
Aenged to the Huron-Iroquois
,family, in*
common with the five nations, the Now
tem and
, the Erica of New 'York, Ohio -1
and some parts of Canada, and the Tus.
caroras of North Carolina.
2. That they migrated Southward, one
part the •Coliongorontas from about the
Lackawaxen and settled at Wyalusing,'
when the old name GahoutatO, and their
name .uf the river Gabonta denote the
same radical idea, and a common origin.
As early as 1640 or MO a Huron tribe
Jailed .Onnontiogat was incOrporitedwit4
the Iroquois ; It is fOundAhat Onnon sig
nifies a bill or mountain, and Tioga an in
.
terval between two streams, and thus &A
the.Olusintiogas were a tribe about a b
near where two streams meet, - whkii
met by the location of iipanbih fnu at 'lll.
8. Incidentally the-meaning of Indian
names is fixed. The wort of /Elscnorsaio
DER is invaluable for the signification of
Delware names, but his attempt to trace
all our aboriginal names to -a Delaware
origin, has involved tke whole 'abject in
endless perplexity, and ia.•now regarded
as simply ridiculous. You may remem
ber how some parties got into a . muddle
a few days since over the _word Basque
llama, each quoting the same venerable
authority; while the truth Is the =mete
of Irignis origin, and it is to be' foand in
the Andester or Siisquehanna's language.
Another illustration is seen in the word .
Wysox. ZElsnEnortn„, who was familiar .
with Iroquois, calls' it Wisach, accenting
- the last 'syllable, an Iroquois word, while
HECKEWELDER in seeking a Delaware or
igin of the word, makes it a corruption of
Wisachgime, the place of wild • grapes
while the tritth is, the name Wisach is
much older than the Delaware occupation
of the Susquehanna - country.
Other interestic facts relating to our
early history might be mentioned,-but we
had intended to make only a single Para
graph, and have already far exceeded our
bound, the peat interest which these in
vestigators are beginning to awaken
amongst thoughtful men, must.be excuse
if any be hied for the lengh' of this ar
ticle. It must be - confessed that it does
almost startle one to think, that we are
tracing people arid their movements
through our own county at a period prior
to the discovery of the continent by, Co
Lonny& welave accepted an invita
tion to accompany Gen. CLARK on a visit
down this Susquehanna valley, which he
kreposes to make shortly, we will defer a
fnrther discussion of this topic until then.

ANCIENT Clsmes.—What appeals to
the imaginative and reflective powers of
man m.,re than the ruins of some ancient
ivycovered and forsaken castle" Poets
have intended the muses to help them
weave into verse theiegenderic chivalry
andhravery that'history accordirtia, their
former owners and occupants. Painters
have vied with each other in portraying
the grandeur of their solitude and decay.
But is not the premature and social wreck
at thousands of young people, annually,
a theme that ties of. man? Dr. it. V.
Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., prescribes his
Golden Medical Discovery in such affec
tions with the gratifying results. No
known remedy equals or compares with
it in purifyingand enriching the system. If
the bowels be constipated, use his Pleas
ant Putative Pellets. • In the more com
plicated cases, Dr. Pierce may be consult
ed by letter, and will generally be able
to prescribe medicines especially prepared
for each individual case' that wills peedily
restore nervous vigor and perfect health.
The following thirties, among thousands
of others,c have either been cured by the
use of Dr. Pierce's Medicines or have ob
served their wonderful curative proper
