are good examples of the native engraver's 

 art, although thefe are not designed 

 either for simply pictorial or for decora- 

 tive effect. The ancient mound builders 

 were clever 

 engrave r s, 

 the technical 

 excellence of 

 their work be- 

 ing well illus- 

 trated by ex- 

 amples from 

 the mounds 

 and dwelling 

 sites of Ross 

 CO., Ohio 

 ( Putnam and 

 W i 1 1 u g h - 

 by), and by 

 others from 

 the Turner 

 mounds in 

 Hamilton CO., 

 Ohio. Shell 

 also was a fa- 

 vorite material for the graver's point, as 

 is illustrated by numerous ornaments re- 

 covered from mounds in the middle Mis- 

 sissippi valley. 



In decorating their earthenware the 

 native tribes often used the stylus with 

 excellent effect. The yielding clay af- 

 forded a tempting surface, and in some 

 cases considera- 

 ble skill was 

 shown, especially 

 by the ancient 

 potters of the 

 lower Gulf states, 

 who executed 

 elaborate scroll 

 designs with 

 great precision 

 (^loore, Holmes). 

 The point was 

 used for incising, 

 trailing, and in- 

 denting,and among ancient Pueblo plotters 

 was sometimes used upon dark-painted 

 surfaces to develop delicate figures in the 

 light color of the underlying paste. Ex- 

 amples of engraving are given by Boas in

Enmegahbowh ( ' The one who stands 

 before his people ' ) . An Indian preacher. 

 He was an Ottawa by birth, but was 

 adopted while young by the Chippewa 

 and was converted to the Methodist faith 

 in Canada, educated at the Methodist 

 mission school at Jacksonville, 111., and 

 ordained as a preacher with the name of 

 the Rev. John Johnson. In 1839 he ac- 

 companied Elder T. B. Kavanaugh to 

 the upper Mississippi, where he was a 

 missionary among the Chippewa for 5 

 years, when the Methodist church with- 

 drew from that field. Tn 1852, at John- 

 son's solicitation, the Episcopal church 

 sent a minister into this section, and a 

 mission and school were established at 

 Gull lake, Minn., in which he served as 

 assistant and interpreter. In 1858 John- 

 son was admitted by Bishop Kemper to 

 the first order of the Episcopal ministry 

 at Faribault, and in 1859 was left in 

 charge of the mission at Gull lake, where 

 he continued until the Sioux outbreak of 

 1862, when he alone of the Episcopal 

 missionaries remained in the field. In 

 1869 the Gull lake mission was removed 

 to the reservation at White Earth, whither 

 Johnson followed and was given charge, 

 bringing into the church a number of his 

 tribesmen and erecting a chapel and par- 

 sonage. Here the Rev. Joseph A. Gilfil- 

 lan, who was assigned to White Earth as 

 an Episcopal missionary in 1873, with 

 Johnson's aid established a school for 

 the training of Indian clergy, and in a 

 few years 9 Chippewa were ordained to 

 the ministry. Johnson was living in 

 1898, at which time he was spoken of as 

 the "aged Indian pastor and co-worker 

 of Bishop Wniipple."

Eno. A tribe associated with the Ad- 

 shusheer and Shakori in North Carolina 

 in the 17th centurv. Mooney thinks it 

 doubtful that the Eno and the Shakori 

 were of Siouan stock, as they seem to have 

 differed in physique and habits from their
