Excerpt from History of the Diocese of Syracuse
At the southern extremity of the diocese, through the beautiful Parlor City, ?ows the historic Susquehanna, and further on along its banks lies that fertile valley, the scene of the dreadful mas sacre of Wyoming in 177 8 — the crowning infamy of British rule in America — a tragedy which was so terribly avenged a year later by General Sullivan upon the Six Nations, who, with some Eng lish soldiers, had committed the atrocity. The lovers of fiction, too, must come to the Diocese of Syracuse to find the Path traced out by our great American novelist, in what literary critics place at the head of the Leather Stocking Series, and what he himself looked upon as the best of all his works. Here they may visit those shady nooks and quiet spots made famous by Cooper, albeit the light has broken into the wilderness and the rays of the sun have penetrated to tens offul shade. The church among the indians.
