NEW YORK. July 19,-John Gan,
90 years old. who, like Fenimore
CooAer's Indian, "the last OF the Mo-
hic;hSs'' was the last of his tribe, the
Do
ago, occupied a good part of Long
Island. died near Bay Shore in
which was known by the residents of
Bay Shore and the vicinity as "the
wigwam."
Old Johns end was not due to ILL
ness. so far as known he had never
had a serious ailment, but old age at
last claimed him. 1t is safe to say
that there is scarcely person who
living near this place did not know
the old man. at least by sight If not
personally for he was often referred
to as zone of the old landmarks of
FSy Shore.
In facial chara cteristics he was a
typical Indian. with high cheek bones,
piercing black eyes and lithsome fig
ure and black hair. There was moth
ing reserved about him, for he greet

er he had no reccollection of any in

and not his life. in his desire to OBJ
tain as high a price as possible for
his fish. Years ago old Johns Indian
relatives and tribesmen passed away,
leaving him as their sole representa-
tive. Now he too. has gone. and no
living representative of the Penataqnit
