Anne Brewster Tanning Chapter Hears Papers on Indians--FuneraI of Mrs. Catherine Mecarthy-Meetins of Aid Society.


 The regular meeting of Anne Brew ster Tanning chapter, D. A. R.. was held in the chapter rooom in Slater library Wednesday afternoon The room was decorated with dahlias pre- sented by Miss Martha Brewster. The programme was in charge of Mrs. B. k. Burleson. and the subject was In- dian Wars Miss Alice Browns paper was the Wampaneag Indian in King Philips War. The Wampaneag h. cians were one of the principal tribes of New England. The name means eastern people. Their proper territory appears to have been the peninsula on the eastern shore of Narragansett bay and the adjacent parts in Bristol coun- ty, Mass. The chiefs ruled all the country extending east from the bay and Pawtucket river to the Atlantic coast, including the islands of Nan tuckef and Martha's Vineyard When the English settled in Plymouth in 1920 Massaseit was the chief, and he was succeeded by his son, known to the English as King Philip. The most famous uprising of Indians in this country is known as King Philips War. King Philip was one of the most re- markable men of his race that ever lived. There were several covenants of friendship between the Indians and the whites, but finally Philips warriors became restless. From 1929 to 1875 they had not been to war save with the Narragansetts, and King Philip was almost compelled to act.
 After several Indians had committed murder and were punished by the whites, June 24. 1875, was appointed as day of fasting and prayer, that uhe horrors Of the impending war might be averted. It was on this very day that the war began, and lasted two years. It was the most destructive in the history of New England and dis astrous to the Indians. Philip and the leading chiefs were killed, the Wam- panoags and the Narragansetts were practically exterminated, and the sur vivors fled to the interior tribes.
 The Swamp Fight.
 Mrs. A. c. Ladd read a brief paper on The Swamp Fight, near Wickford. R. l. Here the Narragansetts fortified themselves Tn swamp. which at most seasons was impossible. Dec, IS. 1875, the little American army. after a fer, rfble fight, was able to get inside the pahsade. First came 527 men from Massachusetts, next 15S from Plym- | outh and 300 from Connecticut. Near ly one-fourth of. the number were kill 1 ed, and many perished before shelter was reached. Forty were buried at Wickford in the course of the next three days. Not less than 1000 of the Indians perished.
 l Nipmuck Indians.
 Mrs. p. F. Burleson's paper was re- gard1ng the Nipmuck Indians, and con sisted of interesting legends regarding that tribe. They were not particularly prominent in the war. and conse- quently the paper was brief. Mrs. W R. Burdick, the regent, entertained and was assisted by Mrs. s. P. Greene.
