Opis: Alasco, an Indian Tale (Classic Reprint) - Simmons William H.

Excerpt from Alasco, an Indian Tale

Dear General:- A friendship of long standing, and my knowledge of the interest which you take in the history and traditions of our Indians, - in relation to whom, by your travels and sojourns among them, and your agency in negotiating the treaty by which the now-flourishing state of Florida was opened to settlement, you have had opportunities of acquiring so much information, - induce me to inscribe to you the following little poem - founded on one of those wild "Romances of the Forest" - of which it is to be regretted that so few have been preserved; as they are not only calculated to throw light upon the intellectual character of an interesting race, who are better known than they are understood; but form original, and have proved not implastic, materials in the hands of our native poets, and imaginative writers, - as is shown by the "Yamoyden" of the Messrs.
