Mary Rowlandson had faith in God Ed. Note - "Coming To America In Colonial Days'' was the essay topic that Kings Mountain students wrote about to win prizes in the recent contest sponsored by Colonel Frederick Hambright Chapter DAR. Eighth grade co-winner and Middle School student Jamie Renee Caulder wrote about Mary White Rowlandson.) By JAMIE CAULDER Our country was founded by a group of people who had a dream of freedom and a hope of a better future. Why would these people, our forefathers, leave their home- land, things that they were accus- tomed to and strike out to a land that was unknown? Whatever the reason, they banded together to overcome the hardships and fight the odds against them and together they formed a new world - America. One problem the settlers faced were the Indians. When the white strangers first began arriving, the New England Indians were friend- ly but these relationships began to sour as the settlers came in large number and started taking portions of the Indians’ land for themselves. Mary White Rowlandson, the first woman Indian captive, was born in England in 1635. Her fa- ther was Jolm White, one of the wealthiest proprietors of Lancaster, Massachusetts. Their family played one small part in the making of America. In 1656, she married Joseph Rowlandson, the first min- ister of Lancaster. For the next 20 years her life was hard but un- eventful as a frontier housewife but her life changed on February 10, 1676, during King Philip's War. On February 10, 1676; a party of Nipmuck Indians attacked JAMIE RENEE CAULDER Lancaster, Massachusetts, killed 50 whites and carried off the pastor's wife, Mary Rowlandson, with three of her children. Two of the children were then separated from her. She was a captive of the Indians for the next 11 weeks. At this time I would like to tell Mary White Rowlandson's story as if it were my story I remember it was February 10th. I heard gun shots and looked out. I remember seeing houses on fire and people running and being shot and wounded. One wounded man fell down and begged for his life. He promised money if they would spare his life. They only spit on him before they killed him. Soon they were at our house shooting so many bullets, it seemed as if hail were falling from the sky. They finally succeeded in setting our house on fire. The fire forced us to leave the house and face the Indians. Men, women and children were taken scalped, stripped and stabbed. My sister, Elizabeth, was one of the victims. They told me if I went with them I would not be hurt. I had been wounded in the fight and was forced to go with them carrying my six-year-old daughter who had been wounded also That first night the Indians spent the night celebrating their victory. I was cold, bitter, lonely and fright- ened. My faith in God helped me through the day. By nightfall my child's condition had worsened. My own wound was beginning to grow so stiff that I could not sit or stand. Somehow we both made it through that cold night and I give God the credit for carrying us through. Nine days into my captivity my See Essay, 7-B Saturday 8:00 AM - 12:00 P cost.
