through ole of the most historic terri

eiety In question has only been in ex-
istence from November of 1909. but since
that time its members have located and
appropria tely marked several sites noted
for events that had an important bearing
on the history or development of the ma
ton.

In fact This barricade was held and
lost with varying fortunes until 11o5
when the French, after tricky deal with
the Indians, secured their consent to
erect stone messhouse on the site
This was the foundation of the perma-

British in 1859 and was used by the
English as post for the maintenance
of an open road of trade from the in
terror to the settled portion of the land
near the coasts The fort played IN i'm

which the bands Of Indians that ravaged
the colonies during that awful period
were sent out After the War of 1776 it
came into American possession
This story-perhaps article would be
better word-does not pretend to be a
complete history of the Niagara frontier
1t is rather the faithful chronicle of
what a party of tourists saw travelling
up one side of the Niagara River and
down the other-a trip of about 20 miles
There are many points along the trip
equally as important that OF Fort
Niagara. The march of progress-fhe ad-
vance of eiyilization-has wiped out many
of the spots stamped with the mark OF
history. and 1t has remained for most
worthy organization-the Niagara From
tier Landmarks Association-to rescue
them from the spelling hand of commerce
and mark them with appropriate tablets
Some idea of the high standing of this
organization can be gained from the fact
that 1t was organized and incluoes in its
membership representatives from the fol-
lowing truly American Institutions:
The Sons OF the American Revolution
