STORIES OF
GREAT INDIANS
OPECHANCANoUGH FOUGHT AT
ACE OF 100 YEARS
BY Elmo Scot Doison

LON A March day, 800 years ago.
~ the colony of Virginia Witnessed
the greatest Indian massacre the
American continent has ever known.
Within an hour BAT men, women and
children had been slaughtered and
so plantations along the James river
had been reduced to six. Back of this
carnival of blood was the crafty brain
Of one man-opechancanough, chief Of
the Pamunkeys.
Opechancanough's hatred for the
whites dated from the time that the
doughty Capt. John Smith had seized
him by the hair and marched him
away at the point of pistol because
the chief had refused 10 sell the starv-
ing colonists food. He was soon ran
somed by his tribesmen but he never
forgot the humiliation His brother,
Powhatan, held the Pamunkey in re-
straint but when Powhatan died
Opechaneanoutn began plotting.
ON March -, 1922, OpechaiEan-
oughs warriors burst upon the I'M
guarded plantations like a storm From
sunrise to sunset they murdered and
burned until the struggling little colony
was almost erased from the map. II
soon recovered from the disaster, how
ever, and then the Virginians loosed
their forces Of vengeance. They de-
feated the Indians.
For years the war went on inter
mittently with treachery and cruelty
on both sides Opechancanough was
believed to have been killed. But
the old fellow was very much alive.
Twenty-Five years later he was plotting
again. Although he was then one
hundred years old. he commanded his
warriors to carry him into battle.
Once more tie savages swept down
upon the plantations and again they
killed more thar 300 whites. Finally
they were repulsed by Gov. William
Berkeley and their chief taken
prisoner and was borne in triumph to
jamestown.
There q white guard deliberately
fred upon the old chief, wOunding
him fatally. Hearing the noise outside
the lodge. made By the crowd that
was trying to get look at the dying |
chieftaIn, Opeclaneanough ordered his |
attendant to lift his eyelids. The |
sight Of the crowd filled him for q |
moment with unnatural strength. Ris- |
ing 10 his feet he demanded that Gov |
ernor Berkeley be brought to him. |
Then In one final moment Of majesty /
the old warrior confronted the gov /
ernor wrathfuliy.
~Hsd it been By fortune to take you /
prisoner, / would not have meanly
exposed you as show to my people,"
he exclaimed. Then he sank back and
died.

CORN FIELDS IN THE ALPS

Europe's highest corn fields are

the Grisons, where the peasants still
sneak the old ROmansch dialect, a
survival Of the lingua rustica of the
Roman empire. 1t is region of bar

gence on one of the few wet days Of
this remarkable summer. At the sum-
nit of the Oberalp pass, nearly 1000
feet above sea level, beyond a somber
trout lake, a cloaked figure with peak
cowl and long wand held up its hand.
It.lOolied like a Familiar of the In
QUESTION summoning the modern in
yader TO some ancient rite In mon
astery hidden in the mountain fast
nesses. but as the car obeyed the COM
mand, the figure uncowled and re-
vealed itself as a road-mender in en-
Weeping macintosh. His wand" was
long-handled spade, and he merely
wanted lift to another pitch to con-
tinue his lonely labors.
Then came the corn fields. The
grain had been cut and was stacked
horizontally on tall, narrow frames
that looked like race-course indicators.
The corn just consents 10 grow, but
refuses to ripen, and 1t has to be laid
on me shelves of these rooted frames
to be dried and ripened.

She leaves husband and two sons,

funeral was held at the Methodist
church Friday afternoon, Rev. o B

from the Rebekah and Grange or
