The hollow squares there represent nations as

In other words neither the belt nor the interpre-

four feet long" He adds: The several nations
are distinguished by particular squares, ana
these are joined together by line of white

implying the union of hand and heart as one.
He described belts which had sappeared TWEEN

ONONDAGA WAMPUM BELTS.
CHAMP-THE ANTIQUITY AND USE
OF SHELL BEADS.

To the Editor of The Tribune
Sir: The death Of Thomas Webster. keeper of
the wampum. at Onondaga, has given promi-
nence to the fact that some of the belts are no
longer there. The dead chief however. may not
have been to blame for this Two of the finest
belts were sold to an official of the United States
In lSW. and ii was then generally understood
that they were purchased for the Government.
which it now appears was not the case The
sale. however. was so we'll known that was told
at the time what was the price paid. Since then
l have had sent me the picture of the so-called
French belt this having also changed hands.
This is also a modern belt but very fine.
There seems real distinction of wampum
Keepers for the Elder and Younger Brothers. an
Onondaga chief having the custody of all belts
properly belonging to the Six Nations. Each
nation, however. had more or less belts of its
own. Abram Ill., the OnOndaga chief. had no
belts in his possession. and his strings. except
ing those which designated his rank his
own private property. AS Il good friend of mine
he gave me some but bought other strings as
i wanted them. He kept d large assortment
q matter of convenience. and often loaned strings
for the ceremonies of the coincidence. | do not
think Webster held any for this purpose At
different times Mr.. Hill gave me explanations of
tHiS COUNCIL Wa1lpuln, ana L am larry equipped
for holding coincidence.
At the condolences with which | am familiar
the wampum belts are not produced, nor do
think they were on these occasions Strings
alone used and the turtle shell rattes are
banshed from the scene. War chiefs raised
on these occasions well principal chiefs;
but the call is different. though this seems not
always made in due form. For the coincidence
of principal chief the summons should be
made by three strings Of purple wampum tied
together at end The small tally-stick at
tached fixes the date. For war chief the sum-
mons is made by single string, having the
ends joined, and purple beads are used.

Mr. Hale and Mr. Beauchamp agree in ex-
planning the use made of wampum strings at
the ceremony Of confidence, Of which we have
descriptions Of both writer's At this ceremony
the speakers (Or. rather, chanters for music en-
ters into all its parts mold wampum strings in
their hands while delivering the lines that have
been handed down by tradition. and either use
the strings or affect to use them. as stimu-
lators of their memories. thus in his paper An
lroquOis COndoling C0unc' read by Mr.. Hale
in 1S9o before the Royal Society OF Canada he
gives a minute description of all that was said
and done at Il council held on the Six Nations
Reserve in Canada in 1850:
While Montour spoke. he held in his hand
string of Wampum, or sometimes two or three
strings united together When he had finished
one topic or section Of his speech. he handed the
string or knot of strings to an attendant VINO
with II measured pace bore it along the hall II
the upper corner where ne delivered it 10 Chsf
Skanawau John BuclO the spokesman Of tn
elder nations. The wampum beads were vari-
Ously disposed in these strings. according To the
topic which they were intended To recall. For
instance, the most mournful subject-the refer
ence To the death of the late chief-Was indi-
Gated by a string entirely black The complete
consolation Of the shining sun was figured by
string OF knot Of pure white beads. In some Of
The other strings the white beads rredominated
and in others the black. They varied also in
their length and in the number from one 70
three strings appropriated to each topi2.
This agrees with a description of a similar
council held in NewYork State. printed by MI
Beauchamp. from a description furnished by
chief Albert Cusick. in The Journal of Ameri-
Folk Lore" When John Buck sang the
'hants for me he did not the Wampum
itrings though he had brought them with him
This led me to think that their employment in
the council was ceremonial. and might preserve
me memory of n funeral custom which Mr. Hale
thinks took the place Of older, more wasteful
and revolving customs belonging TO ancient
times.
The newer custom is set forth in the Book
IF Rites: when a death occurred, person Of
IDEALLY appointed for the purpose was to go Ia
the house & the dead carrying a pole. from
which was suspended a pouch containing mourn
ing wampum. Then the bearer to stand
by the hearth and speak few words of comfort
to those who will be in mourning; and then they
will be comforted and will conform to the great
law" Nevertheless. il is likely that the strings
besides having such signitiCances have been
mentioned were also mnemonic like the knotted
cords, called quipus. used by the ancient Peru
VANS Reliance was had on association, also
in the pictures which help the plains Indians to
remember their songs and preserved their his

amined many IrOquos sites, and While smell
beads are extremely rare on those when are
early no wampum has ever been found adapted
for belts until long after the advent of the white
man The age of the cOnfederacy is also an ar
chaological question, and there are conclusive
reasons for placing it not much before "A. d.
1000 if any The decisive proof of this will be
found in the Mohawk Valley.
While white beads are cmbems Of peace or
purity. and dark beads of the reverse, in gen
eral way the use and Interpretation of symbols
vary much John Buck did not interpret the
hollow square as others have done. The dish
containing meat would be all very well. but the
