Excerpt from An Elegant History of Political Parties

IT is fitting that this history should open with an attack by Indians upon a beautiful Puritan maiden, who had carelessly strayed from her cabin a few yards into the tall timber of His Maj esty's Colony of Rhode Island. This particular foraging party, according to Catlin, that most scholarly and learned of the liars about our Indians, was led by Big Chief Tamanend, and was undoubtedly the first political party of purely American origin.
