Find Strange Picture Writings in Oregon

thought might reveal the existence Of
a race who inhabited Oregon ante
dating the famed Indian confederation

to differ from the Indians as they are
known at the present time.
Frazier. who is a travelling sales

writings by means of chalk to enable
him to make photographs. The writ
