relic of rare historic and religious inter-
est is in the possession of Hon. A. X. Bixby
of the Executive Council. 1t is silver
cross, about five inches in length, time worn
AID gray with age. 1t was picked up on the
size of the old Indian village at Norridge-
wock, by young man named Hitchcock, two
weeks ago last SUNDAY. He with several
other young men were digging in the earth,
when about six inches below the surface they
came across the relic. On its front appears
shgure of the Savior. surrounded by crown,
while beneath the feet is a skull and cross
bones. This Indian village was destroyed and
large portion of its inhabitants slaughtered lSl
years ago the 18th day of last August, BY
force OF about 200 men, under Capts. Har-
mon and Moulton. which went up the river
and landed at Winslow. Father Rasles' a
French Catholic priest, whose labors for the
Indians have become historic. was stationed
at the village and killed in the fight. The
cross was undoubtedly his property and was
lost at the time of his death. FIR. Rasles
came from France in 1859, and for awhile
was with the Abenaquis tribe, he having pub
hshed dictionary of their language, which
Is now in the possession of Harvard College.
In later he became missionary to the lrro-
quois, of the West, travelling thou
sands of miles through unhroken
forests to reach them. In 1871
ne cast his fortunes with the Norridgewock
uioe, where he remained until his death.
Mr. Bixby eontemplates presenting the cross
10 the Maine Historical Society. He also
possesses 1.-The History of Norridgewock, a
rare old volume published by William Allen,
an uncle of Camp-meeting John Allen, In
io4s. The frontispiece is representation OF
NE death of FIR. Rasles.
