AAAAAAAAAAAAAA Sj AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA But in the Moon of Falling Leaves Came the strangers whom we knew not, Onondagas, Little Sisters. Then the time for us passed gaily. Found we then new friendships dear. Came the day when sun descending O’er the lake of bluest water, Found upon a distant shoreline Campfires for our night encampment; Tuscaroras round it gathered, Heard the dreamy near-by water, Heard the Tuscaroras secrets. In the early gray of morning Came we home by wooded pathways, With new visions of the future Came the Tuscarora maidens. il U il u H n Li U y By the Crooked Lake of Waters Rise the tall and stately oak trees, ’Neath the sweeping storms of winter, Gusty winds of spring and summer, Sundered not, nor ever yielding, Brave may be the Tuscaroras, Yielding not though life be dreary, Thinking ever of the oak trees, Restless, struggling, toiling, striving, Brave may be the Tuscaroras Many moons and many winters, Till their lives be bright and joyous In the distant days that shall be. ]. H. A. ’28

Eugenia Galusha In the vale of Lake Keuka, By the bright and gleaming waters, In the moonlight and the starlight, In the checkered shade and sunshine, Stood the lodge of four tribes gathered; With the Senecas the oldest, Next to them the Onondagas, And the third, the tribe of Mohawks. But of all, the youngest, newest, Was the tribe of Tuscaroras. Tribes they were who made tradition; Made it in their years at Keuka. Then the Senecas had left us. Lonely was our lodge without them. But then later when the Autumn Changed the long green leaves to yellow, The new Senecas were welcomed. Tuscaroras sought them, taught them To be Keuka’s own true daughters. As they grew to be the wiser, Our Big Sisters, Onondagas, Passed from out our lodgehouse walls; Left us sadly, grieving ever; Left their Sisters standing lonely At the doorway of their wigwam.
