Day trip to Tay cho pe rah returns with Winnebago lore
A Madison party led by curator Mr. Brown toured Lake Mendota aboard a gasoline launch to visit Indian sites around Tay cho pe rah. They viewed effigies and mound works, learned clan customs, and enjoyed a forest banquet before returning, wet but enriched by Wisconsin’s historic landscape. The 30 participants included University members and Chinese students, who engaged in games and relic demonstrations amid a fading dream of yesteryore.
