It served first as a Susquehannock, then a Shawnee, and then a primarily Lenape settlement and trading post, overseen by the Oneida leader and diplomat Shikellamy.

It is a good thing he did, too, for “Dedication” strays into paeans to history and national purpose that now would make us cringe:

          We see how seriously races swarm

          In their attempts at sovereignty and form.

          They are our wards we think to some extent

          For the time being and with their conse
