All prior human events are traceable through tra dition only. There are evidences, in the shape of earthen mounds, that a people superior to the Indians and preceding them, inhabited the country at some unknown period. These mounds, scarcely yet obliterated, were found here in considerable numbers by the early white settlers, and by those who visited them were believed to have been places of sepul-ture.
