- Excerpt:
“Mother, why is it that Black Hawk will not give Winnoa to me for a wife? Why does he hate us as he does?”
“I will tell you,” she answered slowly. “When I was a young girl, Chief Black Hawk wanted me for his wife. My father refused him, and gave me to another man, your father. Black Hawk became very angry and swore he would get revenge.” -- page 28
