On the cast shore of Cayuga lake, near the present village of Union Springs, af the chief town ,,f the Cayuga Indians, called Oiogouen, the Jesuits planted thru lirsl mission west of Onondaga.

The town whii h was then the [.lace where all of the great chiefs of the Cayugas resided, is spoken of twelve years later by lather Estienne de Carheil, who in 1668 re-established the mission, as a town of "2000 souls and over 300 warriors."

The novelty of the spectacle so astonished the barbarians that they came in crowds to gazeat it." Several Huron captives from north of the Great Lakes where the Jesuits had had their missions for years, were held as slaves of the Cayugas in this vil- lage. Thev had reported to their red masters tli.it the church. The Jesuits always first proceeded to baptize those who were at the point of death to pre- pare them for heaven, which accounted for so many deaths among the baptized and no doubt suggested to then- darkened minds (he belief which the Huron 1 aptives expressed. Father Menart, constantly watchful for his own safety, went among the people day and night be- seeching them to accept the faith, attending the sick and baptizing both voting and old. rhe children he soon succeeded in winning and they materially aided him. "They introduced me into the cabins," he writes; "they waited for me at the plans whire I stopped, and they told me the names of the children whom I baptized, as well as those of their parents.

The "Seneca County News" was originally established asa demoi rati, paper at Waterloo, X. Y., by the Hon. Albert L. Child-, in the year [878. For what reason was not then apparent, as the town al- read) had a Democratic paper. Party exigencies and the personal ambitions of the Hon Sa I I Tilden are, however, frequently given as the motive which led to the establisl 1 1 1 here of another Democratic paper. Be that as it may, can we not say that, in the light of subsequent events, tin- founder builded better than he knew. In September of 1885 "The News" passed into the hands of Mr. Elias Vair and Mr. James £. Medden, and was con- tinued for the next ten years under the firm name of Vair & Medden. With a change of ownership came a change of politics. Up to this time Waterloo had been without a local organ, and dependant upon "The Courier," published at Seneca falls, then the only republican paper in the county. It is now known as the "Courier-Journal." for favorable results in chang- ing republican to democratic majorities in the town "The News" modestly claims its share of the credit, to which it is justly entitled and generously accorded In an appreciative constituency. In the' fall of 1895. Mi Medden retired from the firm of Vair & Medden, and Mr. Vaii has since 1 onducted "The News" alone, being now tin' oldest editor and publisher, with one exception, in continuous service in Seneca county. That " lhe News" has maintained its high standard ol excellence and influence in the party is evidenced by the many good words accorded by it's contempor- aries on the attainment of its twenty-first birthday, to wit: "One of the most vigorous organs that the republican part) has in Central New York." "One ol the most carefully edited of our exchanges." "An enterprising, clean and able local newspaper." "A credit to the town in which it is published." Alonzo H. Terwilliger is deserving of mention among those wdio have made Waterloo the place that it is today. He wasbornin Preble, Cortland county, Jan. 31, 1831, and thirty-seven years ago came to Waterloo and established a coal and lumber business under the firm name, if Walker, Lathrop & Co., a business which shortly aftei he ass, I alone and conducted very sui cessfully until his death on June 26th, [902. In the later years of his life his sun Chas. 1'. Terwilliger has been ass,,, iated with him in the business taking its burdens largely from his father's should, as. A. II. Terwilliger was for many years a director of the First National Bank of Water- loo, was a vestryman and warden of St. Paul's Episcopal church and also president of the board of trustees of the Mist,,,,, al society.

During the past twenty vearsMr. Kuney in plowing the field has always struck rock at the same place. This year In- dci ided to dig it up. The "fire-place" is made of limestone and 111 the shape ol a caldron. The stone is the same as is quarried aeross the canal, from ,,1,1 dwellers in the vicinity it appi ars that no one had lived at this site 111 sixtv years previous to Mr. Kuney taking rq, his residence there, which was twenty years ago. The land for- merly was covered with pine trees and up to a few years ago Mr. Kunn used to obtain his drinking water from two line springs near the excavated "fire- place rhe fire-place being in a crumbling condi- tion the excavation was filled in. There is another Indian III, q,l. 1, e ill the same field. W. I . Bl Hows of Rochester went over the ground and picked up half a dozen Indian arrow heads. Ihe Kuney farm is in the path taken b\ Sullivan in his campaign against the Five Nation, and was undoubtedly the sit of an Indian settlement. Indians; character and domestic affairs of the Cayugas: Very interesting are accounts of the Indians who roamed the country hereabouts, as they lived in the seventeenth century. Their "chief virtue," said the Jesuits, was cruelty which they taught their child- ren. Their first war parties were merely to shed blood. These are pushed hundreds of miles, merely for war-scalps and prisoners which they bring home to butcher. Prisoners are often adopted by Indian families to fill the place of a deceased member— - father, husband or brother. Many Indian women procure husbands from captives, the latter having nothing to say. On the other hand when the enemy has been butchered long enough he is united to move his entire village into the country of his con- queror and become a part of the nation. Tiohero, the Indian village at Cavuga outlet was made up largely of Huron and Andastagues, Indian captives ol the Cayugas. Their marriages were celebrated with the same eclat as among the whites. The wife and husband each continued to live with relatives large and numerous families usually live together — until a child is born. The husband hunts, fishes and makes war; the wife cultivates the soil. Illness demands presents, 'flic soul wants some- thing it has not got. All neighbors bring presents. "A dying man may be seen surrounded bj awls, scissors, knives, bells, needles, and a thousand other trifles." His death is attributed to failure 111 bring- ing him the artii le his soul wanted.
