Excerpt from Wyandot Folk-Lore, Vol. 1: November, 1899 I stand by our Grandmother in the great Yooh-wah-tah-yoh in the North. She speaks to me of the land of the Little People. She directs us to that land. She says to me, "My son, take this torch of fire. It is made from the brand given by your Grandfather. It is a guide in the darkness - a weapon powerful by the way. These it shall be to you as you journey to that land. And I shall come when all my children are there." I take the torch. The darkness rolls away. I see afar the land of the Little People. It is the land of our Mother, the Turtle. I come into the land of strange light. The waters are blue as the sky; they sparkle and glitter in the light. They are sweet, and the deer delights to drink them as they tumble among the stones. The rivers run towards the South. At the foot of the tall rock the great stream rolls. The swaying bushes are thick upon its shores. They bend to the breezes of that land. Trees are where I stand, upon a crag which rises from the flat mountain-top. The river is under my feet. A warrior comes to me. He says: "There is one more trial of your courage. Look beyond the river. There lies the land of the Little People." Then I looked. There was the bright sunshine on the groves and fields. The land rose in swells. It rolled in gentle hills. Great beams of light shone more strongly at some points. The hills were beautiful. The Little People were there. And a great host stood upon the mountains. They were the Wyandots of old. Then did my courage burn strong within me. Then did I say -.

Excerpt from Wyandot Folk-Lore, Vol. 1: November, 1899 Society, and chairman of the Committee on American Ethnology, Western Historical Society, Kansas City, Mo., is an adopted Wy andot of the Deer Clan, raised up to fill the position of Sahr' - stahr rah' -tseh, the famous chief of the Wyandots known to history as the half-king. The latter was chief during the war of the Revo lutien, and one of the founders of the Northwestern Confederacy of Indians, . That opposed so long the settlement of the territory northwest of the Ohio river. The Wyandots stood at the head of this confederacy, and were the keepers of the Council Fire thereof. The writer, who has also received the Wyandot name of Deb' hehn-yahn'-teh, The Rainbow, has had frequent occasion to trans act business for this people, and in the course of such duty has become interested in their language, history, manners, customs, and religious beliefs. He has also written an account of the clan system and other features of the tribal society. He has prepared an extensive vocabulary of the language, not yet published, and made a collection of the songs which by missionaries and others have been rendered into the Wyandot tongue. At the present time the opportunity for such studies has passed away, inasmuch as the old Wyandots from whom this information was received, with one exception, have died, and the present generation is wholly ignorant of the ancient beliefs. No folk-lore could be obtained from any Wyandot now living, and few can speak the language. Only a brief outline of the folk-lore of the Wyandots can be presented in a work of this kind. And what is given is necessarily divested of much of its force and beauty because of the omission of all Wyandot language in expressing Wyandot terms. Nothing in this field has been published before, and the writer has been encouraged by students in all parts of the country to publish the results of his labors in the interest of science. He has a very extensive Vocabulary of the Wyandot language, the only one ever prepared. It is his intention to publish this and the complete work on the folk-lore of the tribe.
