Mrs Rowlandson and the Indians, 1676 (c1880)
Mrs Rowlandson and the Indians, 1676 (c1880). The wife of a Puritan minister, Mary Rowlandson (c1637-1711) was a colonist living in the frontier village of Lancaster, Massachusetts, when it came under attack from Narragansett Indians on 10th February 1676 during the bloody conflict known as King Philips War. Taken hostage, together with her three children, she was forced to accompany the Indians for almost three months as they travelled through the wilderness avoiding the colonial militia. Her youngest child died during the course of the journey. She was eventually released after a ransom of twenty pounds was raised by the women of Boston. She wrote an account of her ordeal, A Narrative of the Captivity and Restoration of Mrs Mary Rowlandson. A print from Cassells History of the United States, by Edmund Ollier, Volume I, Cassell Petter and Galpin, London, c1880
