accompanied George Washington on his memorable journey to the 

 French commandant at Fort LeBoeuf. During the later years of the 

 life of the old Seneca chief, General O'Hara built for him a log cabin 

 near the spot and provided him with food and clothing. Evidence 

 of an intrusive burial in the mound was discovered, and the remains 

 have been carefully preserved, and when the proper time comes, it is 

 hoped to obtain permission to reinter them in Highland Park at a 

 point overlooking his old home, marking the spot by a suitable me- 

 morial not only to him but to the tribe to which he belonged, which 

 has almost vanished. 



We have received many important gifts and loans of ethnological 

 material, among which may be mentioned the entire collection of the 

 late Robert C. Hall, which, having become the property of Mr. 

 Edward B. Lee, has by him been kindly placed in our custody. 



Our collection of coins and medals was enriched by the gift to the 

 Museum by Mrs. S. A. Amnion of the beautiful assemblage of medals 

 formed by her father, the late William M. Darlington, Esq. A large 

 number of the medals struck by the authority of the American Con- 

 gress at various dates in the last century, thus became our property.
