  • Conrad Weiser E
    Conrad Weiser E. John Long One hundred and thirty-five years ago George Wash- ington, standing before the grave of his friend Conrad Weiser, made a prophecy. Of the "ambassador to the Indian tribes of North America", the man who played such an important part inbringing about the ascendency of the Anglo-Saxon world in the vast wilderness beyond the Alle- ghenies, the first President said, "Posterity will not for- get his services." On September 1, 1928, at Womelsdorf, near Reading, Pennsylvania, Washington's prophecy was fulfilled. On this date Governor John S. Fisher of Pennsylvania, and others, dedicated a twenty-five acre memorial park contain- ing the Weiser homestead, the Weiser family burial plot, and the graves of a few Indian chiefs who asked to be bur- ied near their white man friend. Conrad Weiser, in whose honor the memorial park was dedicated, is one of the unsung heroes of the troubled period, preceding the Revolution, when the English and French forces in America were engaged in a great struggle for a continent. The balance of power, it was realized by the leaders of each side, lay with the great Indian tribes, some of them fairly well organized nations and confed- eracies in themselves. The friendship and favor of the aboriginals was assiduously courted by gifts of firearms and rum, by marriages between white men and Indian "princesses", by promises of plunder, and by any other means or agents that were found effective. But the Indians spoke a strange language, and their ways were not the ways of the white man.

  • Historic Indian "Paths of Pennsylvania
    Historic Indian "Paths of Pennsylvania HIS is a preliminary report. The writer is in the midst of a study of Pennsylvania's Indian trails, undertaken at the Trequest of the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Com- mission and under the special direction of S. K. Stevens, State His- torian. The examination of source materials, which are far more abundant than was supposed when the project was initiated, has not yet been completed. Much remains to be done in the field and in libraries and manuscript repositories such as The Historical Society of Pennsylvania, the American Philosophical Society, the Archives of the Moravian Church, and in the Land Office at Harrisburg, although in each of these places the writer has already spent much time. In research work of any magnitude, it is well at times to pause to get one's bearings—to see what has been accomplished, what still needs to be done, and what methods have proved themselves best to carry the work through to completion. To the writer himself, this report has already served its purpose. To others who may be inter- ested, it is hoped that its materials, incomplete though they are, may help to a better understanding of Indian trails and the events in Pennsylvania's history that depended upon them. It is impossible here to name the hundreds of persons in Pennsyl- vania, New York, Ohio, Maryland, Virginia and North Carolina who have generously assisted me in this work. It is a great fraternity, this Brotherhood of Indian Trail Followers. To them all I say, "Thank you.
