It pretty much eliminates any connection between Chief White Pigeon' story and Black Hawk. It may make for a nice read. http://media.pfeiffer.edu/lridener/DSS/Martineau/v1p2ec7.html http://media.pfeiffer.edu/lridener/DSS/Martineau/siatoc.html http://saintswithouthalos.com/n/gaz_mi.phtml The health problems that prevent me from cycling all relate to a birth defect, club foot deformity. Maybe one of these days I'll get back on two wheels where I belong! John,
