Nimrod Porter, a local farmer and diarist, notes: "Many taking the oath of Amnasty [sic] but few taking the Johnson oath" (Feb. 22, 1864). Then later, on March 5, 1864: "The day of Election for County & district officers. Not much excitement. The Voters many of them much displeased to have to take the Johnson oath. All went off peacibly." Porter was a pro-slavery Unionist. Nimrod Porter diary, Southern Historical Collection, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Lost in Imitation: The Last of the Mohicans has been adapted into film so many times that the 1992 film was explicitly based on an earlier 1936 screenplay in the credits, and praised for it— due to avoiding perceived narrative pitfalls of the book. Of course, by making Day-Lewis the romantic lead, the film also conveniently avoided the book's mid-19th century interracial romance subplot, although it added another. Vitiligo usually appears on the hands and face first and may spread over time. Pale patches of skin may be the only symptom. Sometimes, it goes away on its own. If it doesn’t, see your doctor. Treatments such as medicated creams and light therapy may be recommended to restore skin color. 6. Blood cancers Symptoms It was the Lenni Lenape," returned Magua, affecting to bend his head in reverence to their former greatness. "It was the tribes of the Lenape! The sun rose from water that was salt, and set in water that was sweet, and never hid himself from their eyes. But why should I, a Huron of the woods, tell a wise people their own traditions? Why remind them of their injuries; their ancient greatness; their deeds; their glory; their happiness; their losses; their defeats; their misery? Is there not one among them who has seen it all, and who knows it to be true? I have done. My tongue is still for my heart is of lead. I listen." Take a Third Option: In the 1850 preface to The Last of the Mohicans Cooper admitted that he had made up the name Horican for the lake on which Fort William Henry is situated. Disliking the names given by the Europeans (French: Lac du Saint-Sacrement, British: Lake George) and finding the Indian one a bit of a mouthful (Iroquois: Andia-ta-roc-te), he renamed it after a tribe that once lived nearby.

I know that the pale faces are a proud and hungry race. I know that they claim not only to have the earth, but that the meanest of their color is better than the Sachems of the red man. The dogs and crows of their tribes," continued the earnest old chieftain, without heeding the wounded spirit of his listener, whose head was nearly crushed to the earth in shame, as he proceeded, "would bark and caw before they would take a woman to their wigwams whose blood was not of the color of snow. But let them not boast before the face of the Manitou too loud. They entered the land at the rising, and may yet go off at the setting sun. I have often seen the locusts strip the leaves from the trees, but the season of blossoms has always come again." A complete and authentic portrait of the Tennessee Ku Klux remains elusive and probably always will be so. (26) It seems doubtful, as the Giles County native Donald Davidson conceded in 1948, that direct evidence on the Pulaski Klan will emerge to corroborate or contradict the story that Lester and Wilson told in 1884. (27) But the Pale Faces initiation records allow us to revisit the origins of the Ku Klux in Tennessee, interrogate terms such as "amusement" and "horseplay," and question the veterans' line on the originary purposes and practices of Ku Kluxers. Where Are They Now?" Epilogue: A common staple of many of Cooper's novels. Subverted in The Deerslayer, where Hawkeye proves unable to find out Judith's ultimate fate.

Half-Breed Discrimination: Cora Munro, the daughter of a Scotch colonel and a Creole mother, in The Last of the Mohicans. One of the first interracial romance plots in American literature. Her case is a subversion, as such discrimination is mentioned as existing and referenced by her father, but in the course of the novel Cora inspires love and admiration in pretty much anyone who meets her. And at her funeral the Delaware women see her mixed blood as something that makes her superior to her bland sister Alice. Ironically, the only person to actually display a prejudice against mixed blood is Hawkeye, who gratingly often takes pride in his own pure white blood and the pure Mohican blood of his friends Chingachgook and Uncas.

Just and venerable Delaware, on thy wisdom and power we lean for mercy! Be deaf to yonder artful and remorseless monster, who poisons thy ears with falsehoods to feed his thirst for blood. Thou that hast lived long, and that hast seen the evil of the world, should know how to temper its calamities to the miserable." Three exceptions were made: in Eclipse, when Carlisle and Edward enter the Quileute lands to tend to Jacob's wounds after a battle against an army of newborn vampires: and two other in Breaking Dawn, when Jacob permits Edward to turn Bella into a vampire, and when Sam Uley permits Alice and Jasper to cross over to access the ocean. Whilst the Cullens were hunting Victoria, she was clever enough to keep swapping the sides of the treaty lands. Rev. Wilson's narrative was well crafted to appeal to the editorial opinion of the Century. He criticized the excessive violence of some Ku Klux groups while seeking to explain the intolerable conditions under which whites were living at the time. It seemed as if the political heat of Reconstruction was being defused with this exchange before the table could be laid with issue after issue of healing stories of Civil War heroism--on both sides. A key element of white veterans' reconciliation in the 1880s was an acceptance that both sides had fought honorably for principles they believed to have been right. Wilson's account of the innocuous or "trivial" origins of the Klan told a story that kept the honor of his Pulaski neighbors intact while reassuring Northerners that the Klan had not been the rebellion reborn (as so many newspapers at the time had charged) but an understandable reaction to intolerable oppression. Wilson's apology was capped with a lie: "The originators of the Klan were not meditating treason or lawlessness in any form," he pleaded. Their only object "was amusement--'only this, and nothing more.'" (13) D. L. Wilson, "The Ku Klux Klan: Its Origin, Growth, and Disbandment," Century 28 (July 1884). The Century's Civil War series ran from November 1884 to November 1887; it was published subsequently as a four-volume set, Battles and Leaders of the Civil War (1888). Indeed, the periodical's Civil War series, David W. Blight notes, was "quite purposefully intended to shape a culture of reunion" with the editors avoiding topics of causation, consequence, secession, slavery, and race. David W. Blight, Race and Reunion: The Civil War in American Memory (Cambridge: Harvard Univ. Press, 2001), 173-81, quotation 175.

The Indian youths instantly comprehended his meaning—for this time he spoke in the Delaware tongue—and tearing the gourd from the tree, they held it on high with an exulting shout, displaying a hole in its bottom, which had been cut by the bullet, after passing through the usual orifice in the center of its upper side. At this unexpected exhibition, a loud and vehement expression of pleasure burst from the mouth of every warrior present. It decided the question, and effectually established Hawkeye in the possession of his dangerous reputation. Those curious and admiring eyes which had been turned again on Heyward, were finally directed to the weather-beaten form of the scout, who immediately became the principal object of attention to the simple and unsophisticated beings by whom he was surrounded. When the sudden and noisy commotion had a little subsided, the aged chief resumed his examination. This effectively meant that most whites were without the franchise since, as one local editor noted, "who is the man who never gave aid or encouragement to the rebellion at some time, or in some way?" Lincoln County News, July 4, 1868. See also Alexander, Political Reconstruction in Tennessee, 98-112. It is good. We will know who can shut the ears of men. Brother," added the chief turning his eyes on Magua, "the Delawares listen." Public Domain Character: Tamenund in The Last of the Mohicans is based on the historic Lenni-Lenape chief Tamenend (died ca. 1701), who became a mythical figure as Tammany, the "Patron Saint of America". By now, Natty Bumppo, Chingachgook and others have become part of the public domain themselves. It may do for the Royal Americans!" said Hawkeye, laughing once more in his own silent, heartfelt manner; "but had my gun often turned so much from the true line, many a marten, whose skin is now in a lady's muff, would still be in the woods; ay, and many a bloody Mingo, who has departed to his final account, would be acting his deviltries at this very day, atween the provinces. I hope the squaw who owns the gourd has more of them in her wigwam, for this will never hold water again!"

2. What are the causes of pale skin?

The gifts of our colors may be different, but God has so placed us to journey in the same path. I have no kin, and I may also say, like you, no people." Martial Pacifist: As The Deerhunter relates, Natty Bumppo used to be one, having been received his religious education from the pacifist Moravian Brethren. This completely changed when he first killed a man (a Huron warrior) in self-defense. Cora bowed her head in disappointment, and, for a bitter moment struggled with her chagrin. Then, elevating her rich features and beaming eyes, she continued, in tones scarcely less penetrating than the unearthly voice of the patriarch himself:
