Alter the exchange had been fettled, l took an opportunity of cn quiring of a venerable old chief, named Oconoftoto, (then, and for nearly sixty years had been, a ru ling chief of the Cherokee nation) if he could inform me of the people that had left such signs of fortifica tions in their country, and particu larly the one on the banks ot the llighwaflee river ? I'hc old war rior briefly anfwercd me as follows : “ It is handed down by our forefa thers that the works were made by white people, who had formerly in habited the country, while the Cher ckees lived lower down the coun try, now’ called South Carolina and that a war existed btween the two nations for many years. A: leng’h j it was difeovered that thewnies were ! making a number of large boats, which induced the Cherukecs to 1 suppose that they intended to de lev ad the iknnefi'ee il.cr.
