by Madison c. Peters

z AY GOULD was descended from
two notable New England families,
blending the best old English on
the fathers side, with the canny
Scotch on the mothers side Major
Nathan Gould, the pioneer, came from
St EdmOndsbury, England to Fair
y, in 1880, John Burr Gould, the
father of Jay, was born-the first
white child to be born in the settle
ment- Jays mother was Mary Moore,
whose people had come from Ayr
shire, Scotland.

out of hours for a blacksmith. He
not only worked hard by day, but
after leaving the Academy he studied
equally hard evenings. At IS he was
ware store, though a year before he
had sat weeping at the roadside with
no dinner.
Becomes Surveyor.
In 1850 Ulster county was surveyed,
and jay became an assistant surveyor
at $50 a month. Another assistant,
who was Jays partner, was unequal to
the work, and while he was looking
around for another helper two young
surveyors came upon the scene and
Jay knowing that he could get work
elsewhere, told the job seekers that
he would sell out his interest, and
they gave him $500 for the job. This
sum became the nucleus of mis- great
fortune.
From '5S to '56 he mapped the eoun-
ties of Albany, Delaware and Sulll-
van and laid out towns and town lots.
As a surveyor he had charge of the
of counties in Ohio and Mich
igan and the surveying of a railroad
from Newburgh and of the Albany and
Niskayuna Plank road.

/ aboriginal tale, climbed to the sky in
pursuit Of a pOrcupine, and later gave
birth to the sun Boy.
Is Peculiar to Plains Tribes.
The sun dance is a ceremonial Pc
/ culiar to the plains tribes-the Chey-
enne, Arapaho, Cree, Pawnee, KiOwa,
and others 1t is a. religious drama,
largely choral, the dancing being ac-
comDanied by singing. Formerly 1t
was neld once a year, and the object
of the incidental tOrtures was to pro-
pitiate the gods, with a view to ward
ing off sickness and other evils.
Among different tribes Its details
varied. The kiOWaS, for example, did
not practice tOrtureS, and regarded
the shedding or appearance Of blood
at any time during the performance
as an i'll omen
On the other hand, among the Chey-
ennes the tOrtures were most severe
Sometimes a small piece Of flesh was
cut from the shoulder of the dancer
and offered with tobacco seeds at the
foot Of the center pole, as a mode Of
seeking special favOrs from the diVini-
ties. The Cheyennes are said. ancient
y. to have suspended from the center
pole, alive, an enemy captured in war
The ceremony begins with secret
rites in the tepee of preparation, which
are supposed to represent the ritual
originally performed on the sacred
mountain. For this purpose the priests
or mystery men, assemble in the te-
pee. smoke, pray, and prepare various
objects which are to be used on the
altar or worn b. the dancers during
the subsequent performance
Meanwhile the medicine lodge IS
built The finding of the sacred tree
IN the forest, and cutting it down and
setting il up as q center pole, is an
elaborate ceremony itself No sooner
is the pole set W than the warriors,
fully armed. both themselves and their
ponies Tesplendent with paint charge
upon it at full speed, firing guns and
WhCOpirg. and each man striking the
pole wiki his weapon
Merit morning the altar is set up

skull in the center. and sometimes
sand painting Of different
colors, suitably arranged. taking the
place of pigments in this curious form
Of aboriginal art Green bushes and
young trees are sometimes planted
about the altar
HOdies Are Decorated.
The priests then decorate the bodies
naked except for loincloth) Of the
signs employed being symbols of the
sun, the moon. the morning star. etc.
In addition, the dancers are adorned
with green willow Wreaths, which en-
circle their heads their waists their
wrists and their ankles. These
wreaths are emblems Of the sun Four
old men who take part in the perform
ance are supposed to represent the four
quarters of the earth.
