For some years they had been struggling to reach this possession, and once attained, the other members of the confederation were brought under subjec- tion. Not without some defeats, however, for, tho of undaunted spirit, the number of fighting forces available was not sufiicient to cope with the hordes poured against them by their unruly neighbors. Precedent it was, I suppose, as much as superiority, that won and held for that worthy fifty its place in the history of the land in which they dwelt. Theirs had been a gradual rise and upon the retirement of the tribe in power they had quite naturally stepped into the place. The dynasty was not lasting, however, and after a brief supremacy this tribe, having, as it were, attained the object of their desires in that land, gave over their leadership to a new people which had been developing under their tutelage. This done, the fifty dispersed to assume the government and guidance of the many tribes who dwelt in the borders of this cultured land. One of the fifty, Ca presuming fellow, as many thought him at that time, but whom I hope they have since come to look upon as a true benefactorj in whose hands were placed the historical writings of the tribe, endeavored to secure a Writing from each member to preserve as a legacy. These tablets were discovered in a fair state of preserva- tion and with a few exceptions, we reproduce them as they were written. if Tk Ik PII Ik Dk Ik Ik
