Relic preservation urged against selling Indian artifacts
Relic hunters in the east are urged to stop selling Indian relics to eastern museums. The piece complains such looting has robbed Indiana of valuable objects and calls for keeping artifacts in local counties with historical societies. It urges donors to loan or gift items to local museums and criticizes underfunded regional societies while praising the Northern Indiana Historical Society at South Bend. It also reflects on the ambitions of Hamilton, Burr, Calhoun, Clay, and Webster and ends with notes on Gibraltar and E. P. Roe novels.
