Hannah Duston-heroine from 1697-not so much now

Almost wonder whether they will try to take down the statues of her.

Hannah Duston was captured in an Indian raid in 1697 at the age of 40. Her one week old baby was, according to the stories, killed in route. She was left with a 14 year old boy and another woman with an Indian family consisting of 2 men, 3 women and 7 children. She got the boy to learn how to kill with a tomahawk and then they killed all but an old woman and young boy, scalped them and returned home with the scalps.
