Perhaps the most remarkable ex-
amples of the engraving are to be
seen on the geographical horns whose
pictures appear In the Greenwood col

took the place Of pocket maps for the
early pioneers They were the work
Of professional engravers in places

Some of the horns in the collection

by their owners. A great many of
them were used in the battles about
Lake Champlain.
II was often the fashion to have
on the powder horns scenes depict

one of the powder horns in the col

from which 1t is believed that its
owner had seen service in India.

Strange to say, though cherished in
this manner, collectors have had a
very hard time in locating any great
number Of the powder horns used in
this country and this in spite of the
large numbers used in the seven.
teenth and eighteenth centuries.
In the French and Indian war the
English and Americans carried 10000
powder horns, 1t has been estimated,
to say nothing Of the number carried
by those on the French side. In the
revolution there were according to
the best estimates about 10000 pow
der horns in use in the American
srmy, without counting those on the
British side. The. European troops
had long discarded them. of course,
but their Colonial allies naturally
we're equipped with them.
