The first civility offered by the Muscogees to a stranger was a pipe, and this, when accepted, was followed by " a dish of venison and homany. " * Speaking of the rnanulac- ture of pipes by the Southern Indians, Mr. Adair 8 affirms that " they make beautiful stone pipes ; and the Cheerake the best of- any of the Indians: for their . Mountainous country contains many different sorts and ^* colours of soils proper for such uses. They easily form them with their tomohawks, and afterward finish the...m in any desired form with their knives ; the pipes being of a very soft quality till they are smoked with and used to fire, when they become quite hard. They are often a full span long, and the bowls are about half as large again as those of our English pipes. The fore- part of each commonly runs out with a sharp peak, two or three fingers broad, and a quarter of an inch thick. 1 "A Concise Natural History of East and West Florida, " etc. , by Captain Bernard Romans.
