Tlie following remarks of Prol'. T. ('. Porter render it 

 evident tliat this rare and mid sedge i-ame originally from 

 lvandol])h or Barl)our county, each of whieli lies hetween the 

 head\vater.>< of the two Kanawiias : 



"Muhlenberg, in his De--<rri///i(i ulirriar ( n-diniinnn, etc., [>.

 these words. 'lialntat in Tyger-\'alley. Pennsylvaniae, midr 

 xirrdiii Iiaheo ct vlram.' Kin, the (iernian gardner who eol- 

 leeted in Pennsylvania, hrought ithome. and his lahel reads 

 thus: -Deigher AValli in der Wilternus." Dr. Gray has 

 shrewdly eonjectureil that hy -Deigher W'alli." or Tygei't Val-
