In st. Johns, Newfoundland, ON the 9th of
YADIrHIT, supposed to be the last of the Red
Indians or Beothicks. This interesting female
lived six years a captive among the English,
and when taken notice of latterly, exhibited ex
traordinary strong natural talents. She was a
niece to Mary March's husband, chief of the
tribe who was killed in 1919, at the head of In
dams Lake, in the interior, while attempting
10 rescue his wife from the party of English
who took her, the view being to open friendly
intercourse with his tribe. This tribe, the abo-
rhymes of Newfoundland, presents an anomaly
in the history of man. Excepting a few fami-
lies of them soon after the discovery of Ameri-
ca, they never held intercourse with the Euro
peans, by whom they have been ever since sur.
rounded, nor with the other tribes of Indians
since the introduction of fire arms amongst
them. The Chinese have secluded themselves
from the interference of all other nations, their
motives being understood only to themselves,
and the moral peculiarities of that people are
slowly developed to others. But in Newfound-
land, nearly as far apart from China as the An
tipodes, there has been primitive nation, once
claiming rank as portion of the human race,
who have lived, flourished, and become extinct
in their own orbit. They have been dislodged,
and disappeared from the earth in their native
independence in 1929, in as primitive condi-
ton as they were before the discovery of the
New World, and that too on the nearest point
of America to England, in one of our oldest and
most important Colonies.-English paper.
