		<description><![CDATA[In the late 18th and early 19th centuries, cattle came to displace whitetail deer in the economy of the Creek Indians of what is now east central Alabama.   You could even say that this change was one of the factors that led to the Creek Wars that were exploited by Andrew Jackson during the War <a href='http://www.spokesrider.com/2011/02/08/global-creeks/'>[...]</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The article that inspired the name for the new blog, Front Porch Republic, tells of a 1975 essay titled &#8220;From Porch to Patio&#8221;. It explains how homes used to be built with front porches where people could interact with their neighbors. Now we more often have patios in back. They are more secluded and private&#8211;places <a href='http://www.spokesrider.com/2009/04/09/front-porch-republic/'>[...]</a>]]></description>

It&#8217;s where William Crawford&#8217;s army fought on its retreat from Ohio in 1782. Crawford himself had been captured the previous day, and was later tortured to death near Upper Sandusky.

Frank (2005) tells of Andrew Brissert, who in 1783 got in trouble with the Spanish authorities in Pensacola. He and his wife had come to buy some food supplies and sell two African American slaves. He was arrested for being &#8220;dressed and painted as an Indian&#8221; <a href='http://www.spokesrider.com/2009/01/26/fushatchee/'>[...]</a>]]></description>

I hung around Dadeville (known as Beaufort in Theodore Rosengarten&#8217;s book) for a while, looking for anything that might have been connected to Nate Shaw&#8217;s (Ned Cobb&#8217;s) trial there in 1932 (or 33?) when he was put on trial for his part in the shootout at his neighbor&#8217;s place.

		<description><![CDATA[More from April 6, 2006. Nate Shaw used to haul logs and then lumber with his mules, though not on this very road. The lumber industry went into a decline after the country got logged over, but is now important again. It&#8217;s now being conducted on a more sustainable basis.

I&#8217;m not sure if cotton was grown up here or if there had been sharecroppers here, but it reminded me of what Nate Shaw had told about the houses provided to tenants <a href='http://www.spokesrider.com/2008/05/03/this-old-house/'>[...]</a>]]></description>
