Hannah Duston

Statue of Hannah Duston - Haverhill, Mass

Bayou Renaissance Man has a post up about Hannah Duston:

Hannah Duston was the first American woman to have a statue built in her honor, in 1874. Today, what she did to deserve it might be called, by some, a monument to an atrocity. What did Hannah do? Hannah scalped the ten Indians who had attacked her farm, dragged her from her bed, and burned her house down before taking her captive and killing her six-day-old infant.

How was she able to scalp ten Indians? Well, they were dead. How did they die? Hannah killed 'em. You go, girl.

Good for her, not revenge, justice.
