Note 60 — TRAVELS IN THE INTERIOR OF NORTH AMERICA, IN THE YEARS 1832, 1833, AND 1834 (continued 2)

Maximilian is here referring to Duke Bernard, Travels through North America during the Years 1825-26 (2 vols., Philadelphia, 1828). For a short statement of George Rapp and his enterprises, see Hulme's Journal, in our volume x, pp. 50 and 54, notes 22 and 25 respectively.

Economy, an Ohio River town, in Beaver County, Pennsylvania, seventeen miles northwest of Pittsburg, was settled by the Harmonites in 1825. The property of the community is now quite valuable, but in 1902 the membership was only eight. Celibacy has been encouraged and new members have not been solicited, and the property is now in the hands of a single trustee.—Ed.
