man of renown in the tribe, sickened and
died, and was buried on the place now
known as the Lane farm, situated half
mile south of Warren. Fifteen years af-
forwards the grave was visited by a mid
die aged squaw and an Indian girl, who
other tokens of respect, to the memory of
him, who had departed to the happy hunt
ing grounds. At their departure they in
formed the late Mr.. Benjamin Lane, that
one of their number had been buried there,

Henry Lane, in grading down the hill in
his yard, came upon the remains which
owing to the dry sandy soil had been won
derfully preserved. The body had been
enveloped in blanket with small brass

three feet, and after quietly sleeping for
nearly q century the warrior is exhumed,
and preserved as a relic of by gone ages.
