Indian Cemetery Sand in the
Norway Streets.

Many years before the first white
man built his rough cabin within the
present limits of Norway, the Andro-
scoggin Indians, belonging to the great
Algonquin tribe, piled their frail canoe
up our streams, or SKINNED over the
placid surface Of the big pond"
NO man living today can boast of
having seen the red skins, nor can they
recite hair raising stories Of personal
encounters with these wild being Of the
wood. Tradition is helpful in drawing
material for an Indian romance, but
circumstantial evidence is stronger, as
1t introduces a collection Of material
objects, which appeal to the senses, and
not wholly imaginative.
Several collectors have for many
years accidently stumbled across flint
and jasper implements Of various sizes
that bear the earmarks of Indian orr
gin. These have been picked up along
the shore of Lake Penneseewassee. at
Sawyer brook, along the lowlands near
the Little Androscoggin river and in
various localities. All spear heads and
gouges are Of good shape, but not well
finished. which would indicate either
busy life or low artistic temperament.
Returning to the tradition side Of the
story. there is evidence from that
source that small tribe had camp
site on the pine clad point near the
Little Androscoggin. on the Olcott
Brown farm. now owned by Mrs. Hor-
ace Cole. Stories passed along over
three generations quote that Indians

large ponds in Greenwood and Wood
stock, thence onward to the big An

the discovery, spade was procured

searchers opened more ground in the
vicinity. They were rewarded after
considerable labor by bringing to light
twelve skeletons, three were Of adults

Evidences Of Indian origin were con-

two feet under ground, covered with
bark and in the customary position,
