N 1794, Sawny of Pockonocker wrote and published a broadside that contained a vicious yet revealing depiction of Indians in southern New England. Titled The Indian's Pedigree: Qui Capet Ille Facit, it begins with a version of the familiar New Testament story of Jesus' casting demons from a man and into a herd of pigs that run into a lake and drown. The author then embarks on a remarkable description of Indians as the children fathered by Satan on one remaining sow (Figure I).1
