Welcome
to this blogger looking for information about
Mohegan
peace pipes?
Queen
buries hatchet with the Mohegan's
Yes
you are correct, the joke is on our people.
Truth
is that
Shechaim Mahomet Weyonomon
(
they call him Sachem not Chief)
had
the copy of a petition to King George II
The
tribe never had a peace pipe (We have Friendship and Sacred Pipes!
(never
had a war with the English, the colonist warred with the English),
we call it
elimination by assimilation.
Because
we never were at war we did not have feather war bonnets.
We
never had smallpox blankets in the east, our Shechaim had to go to England to
get smallpox!
Shechaim
Mahomet left Uncasvillage in Connecticut to plead for royal help in protecting
his hunting grounds
but
died from smallpox in his City of London lodgings.
He
was buried in the cathedral's grounds, where he was to lie in obscurity for 270
years.
