DELAWARE VALLEY INDIAN.
The Peaceful Lenapes Said to Have
Been the First Inhabitants
of the Land.

When the Europeans first entered
the Delaware valley they found'it it oc-
cupied by tribes of Indians differing
quite markedly from the aborigines of
New England, for instance, says the
Philadelphia Record. Their enlight-
ened character may be surmised from
the sensible way in which they met
PENIS overtures and by the evidences
of human handicraft found in this Vi
cinity. They We're generally known
as the Lenapes or Delaware Indians,
and it. is only recently that we have
learned what complicated nation it
was. <.
The Lenapes did not consider them
selves autochthonous to the country in
which they were found by the first
Europeans. On the contrary, they pre-
served a comparatively clear tradition
of not very remote immigration of
the tribe into these parts. Two sepa-
rate and independent versions of this
tradition were preserved to us by
Heckewelder and by Rapinesque. .Ac-
cording to these traditions, the Lenape
lived originally in a distant country,
west or northwest, and much beyond
the "Namsaesi Sipu" (Mississippi).
For some cause they undertook long
migration eastward. A part of the
tribe, together with and much beyond
the "Namaesi Sipu," conquered the
"Alligevi,'' settled in towns east of the
river, and for long period occupied
this and the adjacent country. The
Lenape huntsmen eventually discov-
cred the Susquehanna and then the
ocean, the Delaware and Hudson riv-
ers.
The date of the arrival of the Lenape
in the Delaware valley can only be ap-
proximately arrived at and has been
fixed at about 1887 or 1897.
A number of Lenape subdivisions
we're settled along the Delaware and
its affluents. This river was the favor
ite and was named by them Lenape-
Whittuck, that is. the stream of the
Lenape. The names of the chieftain-
cies along the Delaware have come
down to us. Thus, the Nashamings are
remembered in the beautiful Nasha-
miny creek. The Rankokas and the
Assunpinks also are memorialized in
the names of the streams the banks of
which were formerly their homes.
