Prehistoric Literature in America

The only evidence that has ever been
found going to show that the prehis-
toric cave-dwellers of America had a
written language was discovered for
the first time in the year 1891. In the
summer of that year Profs. Shaler and
Warren, the former of Yale college,
made thorough exploration of what
is known as Falling Spring cave, In the
Sequatchie valley, state of Tennessee,
and therein found incontrovertible
evidence that the prehistoric Amer
leans were a race of civilized beings,
possessing q literature and an alphabet.
In one of the galleries of the cave they
found the body of q human being,
transformed to stone by the salts and
silica in the dripping water, and near
by large oval slab, upon which were
carved 467 words. In ell these words,
some of which contained nine and ten
letters, only 80 different characters
were used, proving conclusively that
their alphabet was ONO of 80 letters
only.-St Louis Republic.
