Moravians. iMahican, Munsee, and Del- awares who followed the tt'achings of the Moravian bridhren and, wert* by them gathered into villages ajmrt from their tribes. The majority were iMuiiisee. In 1740 the Moravian mi.ssionaries began their work at the .Mahican village of Shekomeko in New York. Meeting with many obstacles there, they removed with their converts in 1745 to Pennsylvania, 'where they built the new mi.ssion village of Friedenshuetten on tln> Sus<|uehanna. Here they were more suctTssfiil and wen' largely recruited from the Munsee and Delawares, almost all of the former tribe not absorbed by the Delawares tinally joining them. They made anotlu'r .set- tlement at Wyalusing, but on the ad- vance of the wliitejiopulation removed to Beaver r. in w. Pennsylvania, Avhere they built tbe village of Friedensstadt. They remained here about a year, and in 177.2 removed to Muskingum r. in Ohio, in the neighborhood of the others of their tribes, and occujiii'd the three villages of Gnadenh net ten, Salem, and Schoenbriinn. In 1781, during the bordertroubles of the Revolution, the llurons ri'inoved tlu'm to the region of the Sandusky and Scioto, in X. Ohio, either to prevent their giving information to the colonists or to jirotect them from the hostility of the frontiers- men. Tlu'next siuiiig a party of about 140 were allowed to return to their abandoiu'd villages to gather their corn, when they were treacherously attackeil by a party of border rullians and the greater part ma.ssacn'd in the most cold- blooded maniu'r, afti'r which their vil- lages were biirni'd. The remaining I\lo- ravians movi'd to Canada in 1791, under the leaih'i’ship of Zeisbergi'r, and built the village of Fairlield on Retrenche r. Hen' a number wt're mas.sacred by the white's in 1812.
