Spin[edit]

A five year old girl is abducted from her family along with another member of the household. A third is shot dead. Nevertheless;

"At a time when the region was a hotbed of constant warfare between the two groups, Tuck Horse’s humanity (my emphasis) toward the Slocum’s 5-year-old daughter contradicts the myth of local Indians as ruthless savages who preyed upon the Connecticut Yankees and Pennamites who settled on their land"

Does no-one else see spin here?

Almost all of this article was added Feb. 5, 2006 in one big chunk.[edit]
