In nmany phteeCt . fc.n kastatop and the I By J. Of the Lower Cherokee towns, next to Keowes in importance, was Eastatoe. This town was not pro minent as a trading center, but its strength and its influence in Chero kee councils was greater than that of any other lower town except the capital.. Eastatoe was inhabited by a dis tinct clan of the Cherokees. Their settlements lay in the upper part of our county and the town was locat ed on the stream which still bears the name, Big Eastatoe. The houses were built on both sides of the creek at its junction with the Little Ens tatoe, not far from Keowee river. The town was of cons-derable s:ie, having "two hundred houses." A population of three or four hundred would be a fair estimat2, as the ob server probably include-l barns and cor:1 houses in his numl'ering of the houses. :ustatoe. :staate, :.r Estato is the English corruption of the Cheroke -Statayi, which means, ransited, "plac~e of green birds." ihe emblem of the tribe was a green aird, thr Carolina paroquet, which is 'row extinet. Eastatoe warriors are mentioned I a :number of times in chronicles of '.he relations between South Caro lina and the Indians. The deed to yor: Prince George was signed by one of the rtribe. E~-t :i was (?rstroyed and all her :klis laid waste by colonial r in the wars of 1760-61. remained of the settlement was :.etely wiped out in th? final a _le at the beginning of the An1. re can Revolution. (Cnnected with the Eastatces is ua of our baut.iful Indian legends, :n story of Jocassee. While these sketches are historical in nature, it w1il not affect their historical value to admit. L.gend, if the legend is clearly dcstinguished from the facts. The legend of Joceassee is told in a beautiful style by Simms in his "WiVgwam and Cabin." Simms states that he -first heard it from a Colonel G , while he was visiting in Keo wee valley. The following is merely a brief outline of the story, and certainly, should not be considerec an attempt to improve on the origi, nal record of the tale. * * * * * * The Oconee Indians had long beel iost.lie to the Eastatoes. The roe )f all the trouble was the selectioi by the council of Toxaway, an Eas t tatoe warrior, to be a chief-at-large and the rejection of Chatuga, of the c Occonces, an aspirant for the honor - Nagoochee, a promisig youn; - Eastatne warrior, one day, whil< 'hunting, followed a (leer into thi -Oconee territory.

You won't .egend of Jocassee i I. Wyatt. 1 v. He was really in the hut of Atta- 1 kullakulla, the Oconee chief. His 1 nurse was the chiefs' daughter, Jo- 1 eassee, and the questioner, Cheochee, Jocassee's brother. The reply of the Eastatoe hunter touched a sore spot, but Attakullakulla offered him his house until his wounds should be healed. Then the romance devel oped, and when Nagoochee was well 1 he was betrothed to Jocassee. But in the meantime Cheochee was swearing vengeance for the Easta toes boast. Just as Nagoochee was able to re turn to his people, there came a .eall from the Keowee council for a great wolf hunt near Charshllactay (White Water). All the Occonees volunteered and Nagoochee set out for East atoe to join his own tribe. At the appointed time the tribes assembled at Whitewater. In the hunt the Occonees and Eastatoes 1 were given the stand at the mouth of ,he gorge, through which the Wolves would be driven by the other tribes. The wolves were many and fierce, but finally they were all de troyed and the hunters returned to camp. When the count was taken, it was found that Nagoochee of Ea tatoe had brought back more troph ies than any other hunbar. 'The , council assembled, and offered Na goochee the right to select his re ward. That one promptly replied that. he desired the hand of Jocassee in marriage. His request brought a 'lash of anger from the Occonees and a combat was prevented only by the intervention of the council. The matter was smoothed over and the request ignored. On the following (lay the whole camp began to move. Each warrior picked his own path ind in this way the tribes were scattered. Unfor tunately it happened that a stand ard-bearer of the Eastatoes fell in with a group of Occonce. The Occonues seized the enemy an(d de stroyed his precious "'green bird." When news of this outrage reached the Eastatoe clan later in the day, the fight began. The odds were against them, but they fought long and bravely. Nagoochee had slain I many Occonees when he met in per sonal combat the infuriated Chero kee. The Eastatoe had just over come Okonattee the One-Eyed, who 1 in his dying convulsion had drag t ged him to the ground. Seizing i this opportunity, Cheochee attacked, - and, although -the fight was hard, slew and scalped Nagoochee. The e other Eastatoes fled at the death of .their leader. In the evening the* warriors of all 3 chlns gathered by thy river a'd be.. 3 .:an the crossing. A :takulakulla t andl Jocassee were in a canoe float 1 ing in midl stream. As the Oceo . ae drew near, Cherokee stepped to t; the edge of the riv'er and showed the I scalp of Nagoochee. Not a word i camne from Joeassee as she realized - what had happened. But when the canoe had drifted into a (leep pool, s she loaned over the side and dlisap - peared in the (lark waters. t; Later the Indlians said that .Jo I casesee came back to walk on the t waters and with her was the hunter, .Nainoochee.

What the Small Paper Means to the, Community. Ar.nus Ward, one of the great tade nt of the lsyehology of public t::, ',ne made the following address -'c th merchants of a small town ii New York stat ?. A euant:y weekly newspaper do 0 u.siness of five thousand dol i:rs to the business and professional) m1en of the community, and can be m:ahde worth one hundred thousand dollars a y ?ar to them. If you don't believe that statement, try to get along without your paper. Talk about "supporting" your newspaper is about as damphoolish as to talk about supporting a store, a bank, or a manufacturing enter prise. You wouldn't be much in the world if you didn't trade in a store, have a bank account, and have some outlet for the energy of the citizens. Too many business men look upon the local newspaper as an incubus, a sort of charity, Yet the local paper ias much a public institution as the p)ublic library the churches, the hos -itals, or even the commercial club with the difference that it gives more di~reet r sturns in dollars and cents to the adividual and to the commnun ity at large. When a business mant advertises in his local newspaper, .it is with avow ed intention of building up his busi ness; but he really also helps to build up) th e town and everything in it. The professional man (loes more, be caus;e his advertising helps the town more than it dloes him-directly. The inan, business or professional, who dloes not pay for his share of the town publicity, is a parasite, tak ing adlvanltage of his feliowmen. Can't you tall what sort of a towvn a place is from the looks of~ its news paper? If the paper i~s of the boost. ing sort, is backed up by the businhess a nd prof ssional mn, doesn't the town get a reputation for being pro. :gressive? T1he newspaper's stock in trade is p)ubli(lty.

If you (10 not owe a debt ofl obliga:hon to you: newspaper, you o(we it to your community. The community has a right to exspect your co-operation in making the newspaper rvpresentative of your community. Every time your name is published in a list of contributors to some charity, that is advertising-free advertising, that the publisher gives cheerfully, because it boosts the town. Every bit of publicity produces di rect and indirect results for the man who pays for it; to produce result for every other busness and profes sional man of the town whether or not he evades his responsibility. It. produces results for every man, wo man and chlid in the community. The country editor is not a gig headed, idealistie indlividual ; he is out for the sami thing as you are-to make money. And his best interests are the best interests of his town. Do you think it fair that he should sh>ulder the preatest part of the bur den ; that he should give his time, money, and often his very heart's blood to the service of the community for bar ly a living wvage, and some time~s not even that?
