INTRODUCTION

In many parts of the country when the soil is disturbed arrow heads are
found. Now, it is a great many years since arrow heads have been used,
and they were never used by the people who own the land in which they
appear or by their ancestors. To explain the presence of these roughly
cut pieces of stone we must recall the weapons with which the Indians
fought when Englishmen, Frenchmen, Dutchmen, and Spaniards first came to
this part of the world.
