Not to mention the fact that the activities of the House were fairly well documented during the time of Crockett's term. There were two publications (I forget the names) that recorded speeches and so on. That's how we know of the famous Webster-Hayne debate, for example.

When one looks up Crockett's term, oddly, the thing he is most remembered for is advocating free land for squatters, i.e., the government giving land to Tennesseans. That doesn't appear to square with this quaint little myth.

427 websites speak of "Horatio Bunce" some of them are education related.

Here is another site you might be interested in. It also quotes the above article. I'm sure you will be able to prove that the rest of the articles there are bogus also.

You mean the government offering land to those willing to risk their lives and fortunes if they would just help the US settle new territories? Do you think of this as a giveaway? Do you think all the people who settled land in the land rushes were given something akin to welfare? What a crock.
