what is the "Walking Purchase"?
• The Walking Purchase is the name given to an agreement in 1737 between the Penn family, the proprietors of Pennsylvania and the Lenape-Delaware tribe of American Indians.
• William Penn, the founder of Pennsylvania and a devout Quaker, made it a policy to deal fairly with the native tribes. As a result, the traditional mistrust between natives and settlers that existed in most other colonies was not as pronounced in Pennsylvania.
• "as far west as a man could walk in a day and a half."
At that time, there was no land for Pilgrims, so Penn made a policy; when penn's family members walked for 3 days, Indian gave these lands to Penn.
Thanks, Jeensik. There was also an earlier post on the Walking Purchase, with links to a radio clip you were supposed to listen to. I will link the post to the term above.
I'm hoping its not just me but there's not suppossed to be any blogs this week right? On account of the test of course.
