24 and 25 are both PL OK :thumbs: :thumbs:

It is a prime example of the propaganda that swept through the United States at the beginning of the Indian wars of the south west.

The killing of the General under a flag of truce has to be a reference to the killing of Lt. Boscom and his men. It was Boscom that hanged the brother and two cousins of Cochise while under a flag of truce. Cochise of course exacted his revenge.

It might be a good idea to put a "listener beware" warning in the blurb... along the lines of reflecting the views of the time and it being against LV policy to censor.

Claude, hi! It was very nice to have one of your readings to proof this morning. :)

As usual, fantastic reading here. There is only one spot you may want to edit, at your discretion:

Top of page 252, at 6:10, we have "And my companion intimidated that we should descend the mountain" -- is written as intimated

Chapter 28 ready.

A few different accents. I hope I don't sound too moronic.
