This is a reenactment of a Cherokee attack on a white settlement in the late 1700s at Fort Dobbs, near Statesville, NC. In Part Three, the prisoners are taken to the Indian camp. The woman and children are kept by the tribe. The man's life is spared by a trader.
The cherokees forgot to tie up the child in plaid, he's gonna make a run for it!

great video! ( on a side note, in reality, ONLY a Clan Mother of the Cherokee could spare the life of ANY prisoner.... )
