He expired shortly thereafter without heing indentified. Nothing was found on his person but at few papers containing 11 strange tale, which is printed below. In the late Summer of the fourth year of the great drought, there descended upon the town of Columbus on the Chattahoochee river, a motley horde. Whence they came the natives knew not. But the older inhabitants, who are wise in tradition and prolific in prophecy, told me that it was a strange people, of Whom part would journey on beyond never to be seen again. That a part would scatter among the dwellings of the settlement to be seen only in the early morning by the thrifty husbandman delivering the milk from his faithful cow, and in the late evening by the village lamp-lighter as he made his accustomed rounds. I, being Without habitation and a wanderer upon the face of the Earth, but withal of an enquiring mind, followed this roving band that I might observe its curious doings and leave to posterity a strange narrative over which to ponder. STOP They came, not as a swarm of locusts Z? which moves as the wind listeth, but from 1 M, - many directions and employing many means Q Er, 1-. - rf-'Z of locomotion: Some in magnificent chariots, I W- Q and others heralding their approach in the ' MT alll -Q, :fp Xvehicles of their forefathers, which had by Iggifbaling Wire and loving hands been kept to- ' TSX ' i' gether until the journey's end. These only to fkgn' expire at last in the court yard of the tavern. ' ', ? 'Y -6 W E 47? E ' U. 'r .5- r'1 ls'- -I v lllll
