The last Algonquin

1. It was written by Theodore L. Kazimiroff

2. This story is about an algonquin indian called Joe two trees and his struggle through life as the last one of his clan. After most of his clan is killed or sold into slavery he flees to manhattan where he kills a robber in an act of self-defence. Then he gets a back breaking job. He quietly lives in Pelham bay park which is in a corner of New York. Finally, around the time of the civil war Joe realises there is no point in him living in a white world so he goes back to where he was born to live the rest of his life alone. Then many years later he entrusts his legacy to a boy scout.
