Mobbhousb, of Connoil 0rove, before the twenty-eighth annual meetiner of the State Historical Society, December 1, 1903. ** Wher6 late the savage hid in ambush lay, Or roamed the uncultured valleys for his prey, Her hardy gifts rough industry extends, Th^ groves bow down, the lofly forest bends; And see, the spires of towns and cities rise, And domes and temples swell into the skies ! " 'T^HE history of most of the overland highways of the West has been written. •^ Being the routes- of freijgfh...ting, mail and express lines, white men know all about them. Some of the border tribes had well-defined trails over which they passed to and from their hunting-grounds and to engage in warfare. One of the most important and well known of these was the Kaw Indian trail, which trav- ersed what is now included in the counties of Morris, Marion, Mcpherson^ arid Bice. Living for many years on this trail, in the southwest part of Morris county, when a boy, and daily crossing or following along portions of its course, makes me fairly familiar with its history and use, and, when in doubt, can asccirtain thefact9 from old settlers, who have lived in Morris county since the '40*8, and who have the fullest knowledge of all the movements 6t that peculiar tribe of Indians.
