Primitive Industry

Description

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. The work may be said to be the natural outcome of the fact that the author lives in a neighborhood once densely populated by the Indians, as attested by the thousands of stone implements that are scattered over the fields. As in the course of my rambles in search of relics, I have always met with kindness and aid from all who could assist me, it is scarcely practicable to mention every one who kindly offered assistance, gave me specimens, and in other ways furthered the undertaking. Many, however, have been named in the text, in connection with the speci mens they have furnished, or the information derived from them. Still I feel it is incumbent upon me to acknowledge my indebted ness to Prof. F. W. Putnam, Curator of the Museum of Archaeology, at Cambridge, Mass, and to Lucien Carr, Esq., assistant curator of the same institution. Without the aid so kindly rendered by them, it is doubtful if the volume could have been completed.
