Yeah, the American Indian way of life seems pretty foreign even by today's standards. Aside...while it's well known that the Indians mutilated the bodies of their opponents in warfare did you know that scalping was something Europeans brought to America? It was a means of showing that they had killed those they were paid to kill.

It is amazing all this was kept secret from his wife.

Yes, I did know the Indians did not invent scalping.

Simply amazing! I only went through a couple of hundred replies instead of all of them, but once again you haven’t used one single contraction in those I’ve viewed!
