7. The Indians were, in many respects, a peculiar people. Though
ignorant and savage, they were not idolaters. They believed in one
God, whom they called the "Great Spirit." They were not shepherds
or farmers, for they had no domestic animals except dogs, and their
corn fields were but insignificant patches, cleared and cultivated
by their women. They cleared these little patches of land by
burning down the trees, and their plow was a crooked stick with
which they scratched over the ground for planting the corn. The men
hunted, and fought with other tribes, but disdained to be found
engaged in any useful labor.
