Hunters Paradise

Like to hunt? Then read this, lean
back and close your eyes to imagine
yourself an Ohio Indian of 200 years
ago. You'll find the hunting that way
lot better than in any of these
parts these late days. To you it
would be an event-to the Indians
only routine.
The writer is not referring to such
small game as squirrels and rabbits.
The Indians did not hunt squirrels.
They believed that it was the squir-
rels that planted all the timber
because they buried nuts for feed
and only one nut at any place. When
squirrel was killed the various
kinds of nuts so buried would grow.
This is the story of the fall hunt
in 1857 by the Caughnewaga tribe
to lay up food for winter and it
took place in the country around lake
Erie. Persons still go up there to
hunt but find nothing to compare
with the Gaughnewaga story.
The hunt began about six miles
west of the mouth of the Canesedoo-
harie-now the Black River in Lor-
ain County, and the headquarters
was Wyandotte Indian village about
where Elyria now stands. The land
there was generally good other than
a few swamps and was heavily
timbered with black oak, walnut,
hickory, cherry, black ash, white
ash, water ash, buckeye, black locust,
honey locust, sugar and elm. Near
Elyria there was a great falls on
Black River.
Deer, bear, turkeys and raccoons
were plentiful there but there were
no buffalo and few signs of elks.
The party killed some deer and
many raccoons, which were large and
fat. The raccoons were sort of
water animal that frequented the
runs and small streams most of the
night so most of them were taken
in traps. They had fattened on wild
rice.
Where raccoons were found rattle
snakes usually were abundant. The
Indians were of the opinion that there
was a relationship between the
snakes and coons-the snakes turned
into raccoons every fall and the rae
coons turn into snakes every spring.
1t was said that in the bottoms
around Black River a single Indian
hunter, usually would kill or catch
more than 1000 raccoons in one
winter.
Where they found raccoons in their
traps there also would be rattle
snakes.
On the hunt were two Caughnew.
aga families and two families o1
.Wyandottes. Some Ottawas joined
them later. The hunt was in Wyan
dotte territory. At it's beginning the
Indians had no meat, sugar nor beal
oil left and were living on hominy
and very little of that. The children
were crying with hunger. The fal

hunt could not be put off any longer
The Indians spread out and the
squaws and boys were scattered
along the river in canoes to keep the
deer from escaping by water. Soon
the guns began to crack slowly then
soon the noise sounded like a small
battle. The squaws and boys were
busy tomahawkihg the deer IN the
water and the men shooting them
down on the land. In all about 80
deer were killed though a great
many had gotten away.
There was great feasting and re-
ioicing. The Indians had plenty of
hominy, venison and wild fowl. The
geese were getting ready TO move
southwark and winter was at hand.
So it was that the supplies soon
were exhausted and the Indians once
more were hungry. Another big ring
hunt was necessary.
That was when the Ottawas join
ed the party. They all waited until
rain was expected to put out the fires
then kindled a large circle on the
prairie. The bucks had begun to run
and many laid concealed in the grass
by day but moved about at night.
AS the fire burned in towards the
center of the circle the deer fled be-
fore it and the Indians. concealed
some distance before the fire, shot
the game down at every opportunity.
AS the circle grew smaller the
slaughter became greater. When the
hunt was over the Indians divided
the deer of which each man received
about ten-all taken within few
hours.
That night the rain did not come
to put out the fires but the wind
arose to scatter it through the whole
prairie, which was about so miles in
length and 20 miles wide. That put
an end to Indian ring hunting there
that season and the savages had to
seek out new hunting grounds. After
all their big rapid hunting enterprise
had done them more harm thar
good.
On the trip away from the burned
grounds four bears and several tur-
KEYS were killed. The tribe spent the
winter on the Oleantangy, a tributary
of the Scioto and lived on rock fish
almost entirely.

ties planned to induce high
