It wasn’t all the cowboy and Indian hatred you saw on TV when we were kids. Letters and journals of New York Dutch show a respect and friendship with the local tribes. Henry Livingston hosted a banquet in the tiny town of LaPrairie for the local Castle when General Montgomery’s force was heading north in 1775 to invade Canada and looking for support among the tribes.
