Excerpt: ... marked and disagreeable characteristics, whose memory went back beyond the time when Adrian Block made his discovery of Rhode Island and Connecticut, and he died, doubtless, cherishing the traditions of his race.1 The Indian warriors in Connecticut in 1680 were estimated at five hundred, by which one infers that the total Indian population of Connecticut did not exceed, at that time, four to five times that number. It will be recalled that Trumbull, upon the coming of the English, estimates the Indian population of this section of the country from twelve to twenty thousand. This estimate, however, is not accepted by the conservative historian; and, as one writer has said, "It was founded in a large part upon tradition." DeForest notes that "on the death of Uncas all unity which our subject possessed, entirely disappears." Between the different tribes conflicts had ceased, and animosities were apparently buried; but the destruction of the Indians and the disintegration of the forces which combined to make these people a formidable obstacle to the settlement of the country were still perpetuated by the pandering of the English to their depraved appetites through the inordinate use of intoxicating liquors, despite all laws to the contrary; for the traders had the same liking for money that the savage had for rum. What the bullets of the English did not accomplish was ultimately arrived at in another and more reprehensible way. '"Mr. Washington Irving says, 'The Indian obeys the impulses of his inclination and the dictates of his judgment. The early records mention with great bitterness the doings of the Indians, and with strong approval the strides of civilization in the blood of the red man. They show us but too clearly how the white man...

Excerpt: ...blockhouse which had a watch-tower that served the purpose of a lookout and, as well, a vantage-point from which the roof might be wet down, should the savages be successful in lodging their fire-laden arrows upon it. Within the fort area was a log house, that stood well down the south side, which was of ample dimensions. There were some smaller buildings in the enclosure, while the water-supply, drawn from a well, was under the shadows of the eastern wall. At this time there were but twenty-two men in the fort, fully one hah of whom were suffering from illness.1 Sergeant John Hawks, of Deerfield, was in command. A few days before, Surgeon Thomas Williams had been despatched to Deerfield for a supply of ammunition, and Rigaud's little "army" had invested Fort Massachusetts before they could return. Over the rough clearing bristling with the blackened stumps of the huge trees whose trunks had been hewn into the timbers for the fort walls the 1"Lord's day and Monday... the sickness was very distressing....

On the other, Saddleback Mountain, from the slopes of which, one of the fort party afterward related, "The enemy could shoot over the north side into the middle of the parade." In the fort with Hawks and his twenty-two men were three women and five children. There was no fighting-man of those days of better mettle than John Hawks,1 and the odds against him were thirty to one, with only a wall of logs between the savages and those under him in the garrison.

Download or read book Firsting and Lasting written by Jean M. Obrien and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 2010-05-10 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Across nineteenth-century New England, antiquarians and community leaders wrote hundreds of local histories about the founding and growth of their cities and towns. Ranging from pamphlets to multivolume treatments, these narratives shared a preoccupation with establishing the region as the cradle of an Anglo-Saxon nation and the center of a modern American culture. They also insisted, often in mournful tones, that New England’s original inhabitants, the Indians, had become extinct, even though many Indians still lived in the very towns being chronicled. InFirsting and Lasting, Jean M. O’Brien argues that local histories became a primary means by which European Americans asserted their own modernity while denying it to Indian peoples. Erasing and then memorializing Indian peoples also served a more pragmatic colonial goal: refuting Indian claims to land and rights. Drawing on more than six hundred local histories from Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Rhode Island written between 1820 and 1880, as well as censuses, monuments, and accounts of historical pageants and commemorations, O’Brien explores how these narratives inculcated the myth of Indian extinction, a myth that has stubbornly remained in the American consciousness. In order to convince themselves that the Indians had vanished despite their continued presence, O’Brien finds that local historians and their readers embraced notions of racial purity rooted in the century’s scientific racism and saw living Indians as “mixed” and therefore no longer truly Indian. Adaptation to modern life on the part of Indian peoples was used as further evidence of their demise. Indians did not—and have not—accepted this effacement, and O’Brien details how Indians have resisted their erasure through narratives of their own. These debates and the rich and surprising history uncovered in O’Brien’s work continue to have a profound influence on discourses about race and indigenous rights.
