Excerpt from The Pennsylvania and New York Frontier: History of From 1720 to the Close of the Revolution Inasmuch, as no connected and complete history Of the Pennsylvania and New. York frontier has been published, this work was undertaken. The pioneer raised what he ate, made what he wore, doctored himself and worshipped alone, if at all. His long, loose, fringed hunting shirt partly covered his buckskin breeches; and he had a rifle and carried a tomahawk and scalping knife. He lived in a cabin Of unhewn logs without windows or floor, save the hard ground. Many Of the pioneers were SO poor, that with out horse or cow, they made their way into the woods and squatted in a secluded cove of the mountains or on the fertile bend of an upland stream. The sun never penetrated the dense foliage Of the trees and warmed the ground beneath; and surrounded as they were by this unlit and unwarmed forest land, late springs and early frosts blighted their scant crops Of corn, squashes and beans.
