The white
Now I understand, that's how Arkansas was bought from the Indians.
At that time the settlers had to make an effort themselves, today such a delivery via Amazone Prime would be done without any effort within a few hours.

After a good day’s sporting ride, the Earl and his high-born associates relax before the warmth of the fire and a rousing bit of entertainment at the expense of three young maidens from the village offered up by their families in lieu of in-kind cottager rent payments defaulted upon due to the season’s poor harvest.

What Blizzard? Just a slight Minnesota Spring chill. The Swedish cowboys are rather too kind, letting the Indian scum warm herself by the fire.

Oooh! Those poor girls suffering on those huge impalement spikes. I can't stop thinking of their ordeal! I wonder how long this would take?

I very much admire the attention to small detail in this image. The two main hanged girl subjects are inserted in the picture such that they are behind the table, not directly over the table, which one would clearly not want if one was dining. Also there is the original painted figure looking at something around the mantlepiece, and the inclusion of a girl's head adds a nice touch that I didn't see the first time I saw this picture. The otherwise casual attitude of the gentlemen also adds a surreal touch to the image - they are clearly not at all concerned about the fate of the girls, and this is all just natural to them, (even if it isn't natural to the girls).
