1929. From a Folklore Note contained at the beginning of the play: Johnny Appleseed is a half-traditional character who planted apple nurseries and orchards throughout the frontier regions, especially in Ohio and Indiana, in the early part of the nineteenth century. He has been called the Father of American Orchards. Paul Bunyan is the mythological hero of American lumberjacks with a steadily increasing number of yarns redounding to his glory, many of which involve Inkslinger, his chief clear. Some of the names of Indians have been taken from historical sources; but no attempt has been made to portray actual characters nor to follow the customs of any particular tribe. Due to the age and scarcity of the original we reproduced, some pages may be spotty or faded.
