New Jersey, from the discovery of Scheyichbi to recent times . and bright eyes, gave the people of theneighborhood a good idea of what sortof people used to inhabit this countrybefore their ancestors came over the had many true Indian character-istics, and loved to work in the open airbetter than to attend to domestic mat-ters in the house. Even when shewas very old, she would go into thewoods and cut down trees as ifshe had been a man. She did notdie until December, 1894; and then the people who had knownher so long gathered together at herf uiircral, and buried the last of the Indians of New Jersey. Thus Scheyichbi, the land of the Indians, becametruly and honestly New Jersey, the land of tlie Eng-lish settlers; and to this State belongs the honor ofhaving been the first in the Union in which the set-tlers purchased and jxiid for the lands on whicli theysettled, and in which tlie aboriginal owners were sofairly treated that every foot of the soil not purchasedof them by individuals was bought and jxiid for by thegovernment of the FINS, RAITLKS, AMJ WINGS.
