INDIAN STOCKADE
MARKED BY D. A, R.
Tlii- unveiling of a Imultler at Fort
Cummings, which marks the site of
an old Cherokee Indian stockade,
within the limits of the city of La-
Fayelte, on Monday, Sept. Uh, by
William Marsh chapter, Daughters
of the American Revolution, was an
event of unusual interest.
The early autum day was ideal for
the occasion. The mist and ha/e was
just enough to remind one of the
Indian summer days, which are en
joyed so much a little later in the
season, made it especially pleasant
for the out door exercises.
The drive out to the Fort either
over the Dixie Highway or winding
around the picturesque hill, at the
bottom of which spreads a beautiful
lake, and on the top of which is the
historic spot that created the inter
est of the day, was the th;st feature
enjoyed by the visitors.
Less than a century ago the smoke
from the wigwams and the tires of
the Indian.couneils rose from almost
■very nook and corner of this sec
tion: the mountains and \alleys rang
with shouts of victory and the war
dance' was common.
Doubtless in no county of. the
state can more names of Indian ori
gin he found, richer Indian legends
or more dramatic incidents con
nected with the Indians in the early
days he related, than in Walker, and
William Marsh chapter has been
very active in securing and compil
ing this information.
Living today, are a few persons
who remember when the Indians
were placed in I his old stockade at
Fort Cummings, which was built of
upright logs, the trenches in which
they were placed may he plainly
seen to outline the fort distinctly.
This being the first spot marked by
William Marsh chapter, also the
first in the county to he so marked,
the event created intense interest.
The simple exercises were wit
nessed by a large crowd. Many of
