To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The re- volutionary war following soon after, all trace of the Indians was lost — their old warriors died, and until the recent appeal made by their descendants, it was thought by the people of Maryland that the tribe had ceased to exist ; but the committee are satisfied from the evidence before them, that one hundred still remain of that once numerous and powerful tribe, collected and settled up- on the upper waters of the Grand river, north of Lake Erie. In our own State, not one now remains ...to tell the tale of their for- mer greatness; but their names still form one of the cherished links to connect their history with our own. In the language of one of America's gifted daughters, it may be said : "They all have passed away; That noble race and brave, And their light canoes have vanished From off the crested wave.
And 'mid the forests where they roamed, There rings no hunter's shout; But their name is on your waters, Ye cannot wash it out." The committee, having thus given an account of the history of the Nanticokes, and the nature of their claim, will here present the last act passed upon the subject — (1768, chapter 7) — which closes the Indian chapter of Maryland ; remarking, however, that nothing appears to show that their removal was desired by the whites ; but, on the contrary, the act was voluntary on the part of our red brethren.
