June des Jahres 1675, gegen 10 Uhr morgens sah man in der jungen Stadt Hadley in Neuengland Maenner und Frauen von verschiedenen Seiten her in wuerdiger Stille dem Bethause zuwandeln, denn es war Sonntag, und die irdischen Geschaefte ruhten, um wichtigeren Angelegenheiten Platz zu machen." The story features a skirmish with Native Americans, and characters with names such as Whittlethorne, Russel, Whalley, and Mugglewhip. |
