In the book, a minor character, Grandma Fontaine shares her memories of seeing her entire family murdered in the Creek uprising following the massacre as a lesson to the protagonist, Scarlett. She explains that a woman should never experience the worst that can happen to her, for then she can never experience fear again. [link to en.wikipedia.org (secure)] Something I've noticed watching these History Channel docu-series..is much of what we take for granted in both name brands and history came to a point where at the very moment to brand/battle was almost lost, something happens which is so completely unlikely but sets them up for success. In regard to Daniel Boone and his fort..after 9 days of holding off the British led native peoples, the fort was nearly lost after many fire arrows were shot into the fort. Almost miraculously..the rain started and put out the fire..giving the people inside the ability to hold the fort. If the fort had fallen..America might look very different. This happens a lot..almost like there is some divine design to all this. In the vein of divine design..one can't help but wonder how Tecumseh predicted that earthquake and where that eventually led. Does 'God' play both sides against the middle? Tecumseh Tecumseh(1768 – October 5, 1813) was a Shawnee chief and warrior who promoted resistance to the expansion of the United States onto Native American lands. A persuasive orator, Tecumseh traveled widely, forming a Native American confederacy and promoting intertribal unity. Even though his efforts to unite Native Americans ended with his death in the War of 1812, he became an iconic folk hero in American, Indigenous, and Canadian popular history.

Fremont had named Carson City's nearby river for Kit Carson, Fremont's scout.

Writing about the event years later, Richard K. Call recalled: "The next morning after our march we entered the Indian village, and here I first saw the carnage of the battle field. I saw it in its worst aspect – when the hour of danger had passed, when I could excite no feeling or passion in my breast, to control my sympathy and sorrow for human suffering. It was to me a horrible and revolting scene – the battle had ended in the village, the warriors fighting in their board houses, which gave little protection against the rifle bullets or musket ball. They fought in the midst of their wives and children, who frequently shared their bloody fate. They fought bravely to the last, none asking or receiving quarter, nor did resistance cease until the last warrior had fallen. Humanity might well have wept over the gory scene before us. We found as many as eight or ten dead bodies in a single cabin, sometimes the dead mother clasped the dead child to her breast, and to add another appalling horror to the bloody catalogue – some of the cabins had taken fire, and half consumed human bodies were seen amidst the smoking ruins. In other instances dogs had torn and feasted on the mangled bodies of their masters. Heartsick I turned from the revolting scene. Very different seems the picture in the cool moment of inaction than in the excitement of battle – in the one – passion, the desire to triumph, and vengeance make demons, in the other as the brain becomes more composed, the pulse to beat less quickly, the heart resumes its sway – and it would be a relief to shed tears over the carnage around us – I remember an instant of a brave young soldier, who after fighting like a tiger until the engagement was over, fainted at the sight of the blood he had helped to spill."
