Arch (Joliu). [Third chapter of St. .Joliu 

 ill the Cherokee hingaa;!?e.] (*) 



In a biography of So-(iiii)-yali ((Jrcorso Giie'ss), 

 by George E. Foster, Philaile.lphia, ISsr., the fol- 

 lowing atateiueut concerniug this native Chero- 

 kee, whose Indian name was At-soe, is niaiie (p. \ 

 120) : " He spent quite a time near Willstown, 

 near the western limits of the State of Georgia ; 

 here he met Se-qiio-yah anil became interested 

 in his invention [the Cherokee alpliabetl. He 

 readily saw its value and determined to put it 

 into practical use. Before tliis he had assisted 

 one of the missionaries in translating nn ele- 

 mentary school book for the Cherokce.s, which 

 wasafterward printed. Hocontinued his good 

 work as preacher, teacher, and interpreter 

 until late in the season of 1824, when he was 

 taken ill of dropsy. Unable to travel, he at 

 once set about translating the third chaptci' of 

 St. John into the Clierokeo language. He then 

 wrote it in the syllabic charactsr of Se-ipio-yali. 

 It was received with wonderful avidity, and 

 was coiiied many hundred times and read by 

 the multitudes whom he had visited in his 

 tour, thus preparing the way for its quick re- 

 ception among his people. This was the first 

 portion of Scripture translated into the alpha 

 bet of Se-quo-yali, though it was rapiilly fol- 

 lowed by other portimis." 



The elementary book referred to is probably 

 the spelling book olButtrick (D. S ) and Brown 

 (D.).
