procured from the archives of the church at Gnadeuhutteu, Ohio, were delivered 
to Judge Lane, of that State, by him transmitted to the Hon. Edward Everett,

came to America about 1739; began the study of the Indian languages in 1745, 
aud about 1750 commenced his missionary labors among the Indians, which ho 
continued until his death. He "traversed Massachusetts and Connecticut, New 
York, Pennsylvania, and Ohio, entered Michigan and Canada, preaching to 
many nations in many tongues. He brought the Gospel to the Mohicans and 
Wampanoags, to the Nanticokes aud Shawanese, to the Chippewas, Ottawas, 
and Wyandots, to the Unamis, Unalachtgos, and Monseys of the Delaware race, 
to the Onondagas, Cayugas, and Senecas of the Sis Nations. Speaking the 
Delaware language fluently, as well as the Mohawk and Onoudaga dialects of 
the Iroquois; familiar with the Cayuga and other tongues; an adopted sachem

any other calling, ever exercised more real influence and was more sincerely 
honored among the Indians." — De Scliweinitz's Life and Times of David Zeisberger.
