Choosing to leave their family and friends in the Ohio Valley and
settle in the Kentucky Mountains had not been an easy decision for
the newlyweds Maggie and Samuel. Returning to the wagon-train and
finding that her husband and everyone else had been killed by
Indians, Maggie, who was just barely sixteen, collapsed to the
ground. Had she not fallen asleep after bathing at the falls, she
would have heard the horrible screams that rang through the
Kentucky hills earlier that afternoon. She too would have been
killed.
Returning to his tribe after a month of spiritual growth in the
Dark Hills, the young Indian chief, Brave Eagle, had just stopped
to water his horse when he heard the whimpering in the brush.
Discovering the filthy, bloody girl hysterically biting her lips
and tugging at her hair he tied her hands and took her back to his
village. It was during that first month of being held captive in
the village that Maggie learned she was going to have Samuel's
baby. As she finally had a reason to live, she prayed to God for
strength and guidance. In the beginning, she hated the chief who
brought her back to his village and left her with his grandmother,
but as time passed Maggie found herself thinking more and more
about him because his gentle touch to an old one's arm or kind
smile when he talked with a child made her wonder what kind of man
he really was.
