Back to things --- Graves details the history of the Sherman family and their run in with the local Indians. This guy named two-feathers and his band of Comanche brothers heckles these Irish people then rapes, tortures, and kills them except for one which turns out to be the mother of [[Directory:Quanah Parker|Quanah Parker]]. Graves finishes by bitching about historical inaccuracies and the Hollywood fictionalized version of the old west. At the end of the chapter Graves tells us how he is a world traveler and compared to world history the settling of the old west isn't a very big deal yet it is extremely important to him and makes up an important part of his being.
