This is the reveling of the springs medicinal properties by the Mohawks.

The above information was supplied by AR8Jason. I had the whole story wrong!
Jason, what can I say? Your knowledge of history is amazing. I am going to use your post for my information if you don't mind.
One question,am I correct in stating this is a souvenir piece from the 1900's ?

Yes, Mark, I call Jason the walking history book. Whatever the story, it's a cool

Better a bit worn than in the garbage.
