But, tradition aside, Mr. Lynd thinks that the argu- ments from language and special customs, lead us to con- nect the North American Indians with the Asiatics, and especially with the Hindoos. In the Faquir of India he finds a brother of the dreaming god seeking Dakota. " The waters of the Mississippi and the Missouri m...ingle with the Ganges and the Indus. " The chapter on " Early History, " which is the third, concludes in this way : " One thing alone is evident through this ancient gloom.
