Plaque Commemorates Clinton Ethnologist, Writer An historical plaque commem- orating the famous ethnologist and philologist, Horatio Emmons Hale, was unveiled on the grounds of St. Paul's Anglican Church in Clinton, Saturday af- ternoon.

This plaque is one of a series being erected throughout the prov- ince by the Department of Travel and Publicity, acting on the advice of the Archaeologi- cal and Historic Sites Board of Ontario. - Saturday's plaque unveiling ceremony was arranged and sponsored by the Institute of Iroquoian Studies.

BRITISH MORTGAGE &TRUST Exeter, Goderich, Stratford IIwraith of the University of Toronto, a member of the In- stitute and of the province's Historic Sites Board, acted as program chairman. Among those taking part in the cere- mony were: His Worship Wil- liam J. Miller, Mayor of Clin- ton; Dr. William M. Fenton, Di- rector of the New York State Museum ; George Vanevery, Chief Councillor of the Six Na- tions, and Edward Killeen, of the United States Consulate in Toronto. The plaque w a s unveiled by Miss Margaret Hale, granddaughter of Horatio Hale, and dedicated by the Rev. Peter L. Dymond, Rector of St. Paul's Anglican Church. Horatio Emmons Hale was born in 1817 in Newport, New Hampshire. His father died five years later and his mother be- came editor of a Boston periodi- cal, The Ladies' Magazine, a post which she occupied for al- most fifty years. It is interest- ing to note that, among her many accomplishments, she was the author of the familiar chil- dren's rhyme, Mary Had a Lit- tle Lamb, and that her urging was largely responsible for the establishment of .Thanksgiving as a national holiday. Hale entered Harvard Uni- versity at the age of sixteen, there showing such a penchant for linguistics that, on graduat- ing in 1837, he was appointed philologist and ethnographer to Captain Charles Wilkes' Pacific expedition. That expedition, de- signed as exploratory in the fullest sense, and including re- presentatives of all the natural sciences, left Hampton, Va., in 1838 and returned to New York in 1842, having circumnavigat- ed the globe. One volume of the expedi- tion's 19 -volume report was compiled by Hale, and appear- ed in 1846. Devoted to an in- tensive ethnological study of the peoples of .the Pacific, it is still regarded as fundamental to the study of Polynesian eth- nology. Hale then spent some .years in travel and in the study of law, and in 1855 was admitted to the bar in Chicago., His wife, formerly Margaret Pugh, was born in Goderich Township, and her family still owned consid- erable land there. In this con- nection, Hale,* visited Clinton in 1856. He was so attracted by the place that he took up•perm- anent residence there the same year. Though a lawyer by profes- sion, Hale remained an ethnolo- gist by inclination, and spent much time at that pursuit, par- ticularly on the Six Nations Re- serve near Brantford. His re- search led to the notable dis- covery that the Tutelo Indians, once numerous in Virginia and North Carolina, but later ab- sorbed by the Six Nations, were linguistically related to the Siouan peoples of the plains. In 1883 Hale pablished his classic "Iroquois Book of Rites", a masterly study of the Iroquois Confederacy. The year previous, as a member of a committee of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, he had helped organize its An- thropological section, and two years later performed a like duty for the corresponding Bri- tish association. At the latter meeting, Hale was made director of a com- mittee "to investigate the phys- ical character, languages, and industrial and social conditions of the Northwestern tribes of . . Canada", and for many years bore a large share of its work. An address on the subject of the origin of language, deliv- ered by Hale at the 1886 meet- ing of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, received worldwide approval. A paper entitled, `Language as a Test of Mental Capacity, con- tributed to the Transactions of the Royal Society of Canada (of which Hale had been elected a Fellow in 1889) received simi- lar attention. In 1893 he was elected President of the Ameri- can Folklore Society. He was also honored by election to the American Philosophical Society. Hale did much for Clinton during his forty years' residence there. It was largely through his efforts that the high school and Mechanics' Institute and library were established, and he was for many years chairman of the school board and presi- dent of the Institute. He fur- thered the progress of both by correspondence and petitions to the legislature, and had much to do with legislation permit- ting girls to enter high school on equal terms with boys. He was also chairman of the com- mittee which secured the means for the construction in 1875-76 of the Toronto, Huron and Bruce Railway.. On Hale's death, late in 1896, the eminent" American anthro- pologist, Franz Boaz, wrote: "By WASTEFUL WASHER One of the earliest home washing machines was patented in 1858 by Hamilton E. Smith of Pittsburg, Pa. It was oper- ated by turning a crank at the side that rotated paddles inside the tub. Unfortunately, the clothes washed by this machine often became knotted and torn, so it met with little success. his death, ethnology has lost a man who contributed more to our knowledge of the human races than perhaps any other single student. His wise coun- sel, his aimiable guidance, his kindly friendship, ensure a grateful memory to him whose work students of ethnology and of linguistics will admire for all time to come."
