Jack Reese And Col.
von Tresckow Speak
At D. A. R. Meeting
(By Florence Barnes)
The Hobklrk Hill Chapter, D. A.
R„ met on Oct. 27, at the Recrea
tion Hut, Fair street, at 4 p. m.
Mrs. von Tresckow presided.
It was a most Interesting after
noon because the chapter Invited
any friends who wished to come,
especially the school children, to
hear the two guest speakers. Col.
von Tresckow and Jack Reese, tell
of the life among the Indians,
illustrated by many objects ex
cavated from very old Indian burial
mounds.
Mr. Reese told of bis early re
search here at home, as a boy,
along the canal especially, where
arrowheads are still washed out
of Ihe old soil. He showed many
tools made of rock, for grinding
grain and scraping the deer hide
tor clothing, a deep burial urn,
and stone disks used in games.
He said that in the primeval days
there was a large and prosperous
nation of Catawbas living along
the water here, almost extermi
nated later by the less peaceful
Shaw-nees. By 1783 there were
only about four hundred Cataw-
bas left of thousand or more
original tribe. He showed the long
Arrowheads used on spears, fish
knives of stone and weights for
fish nets. Heavy arrows for deer
and bear and shell money. He is
now a recognized authority on In
dian mound relics and offers to
show bts large collection to any
friends who want to come to his
home.
Col von Tresckow took the pic
ture to South America, to tha Arlka
Indiana In ftru, where the gover
nor showed nim rare excavations
and a burial plateau that was
so dry the mummies were almost
unchanged after hundreds of years.
Among his relics were pieces of
cloth woven of yarns wool over
six hundred years ago, bits of
ponchos that were wrapped about
the dead Indians and preserved
by the dry soil. Some graves, a
thousand years old, were so en
crusted with a natural cement it
required as crowbar to break
through to the grave ttaelf, and
the mummy—squatting in his bur
ial Jar with his chin on his knees,
surrounded by the corn and cocoa
beans, and a chew-nut to lighten
