Tuskarawas (supposing it to be the Tuscarorasof the maps), is a small stream in the limits ofPennsylvania, which falls into the Junietta, abranch of the Susquehannah. Sandusky is an Indian settlement, on a riverof the same name that has a N.E. course, andempties itself into a small arm of lake Erie, nearits western end, about 82.50 W. lon. Miami is the name of three rivers in thiscountry. That which concerns the account isMiami of the lakes, which running nearly from S.to N. a course of apparently 150 miles, falls intolake Erie, about 50 miles W. of Sandusky.On this river, where, as the term is, it forks,is Fort-Wayne. The Wabash seems a long and crooked river.One of its sources is S. of Fort-Wayne; thestream from which is doubtless the Wabash, nearwhich the agricultural examples have been felt,as related in the account.
