King Phillip's War

This is an account of King Phillip's War.  Many years had passed since the white men came from overseas and disturbed the indians.  They had eventually made peace and had some people who acted as peacemakers.  Over time, these peace makers passed away.  This then created anger and fighting between the indians and the colonists.  The colonists took King Phillip's brother at gunpoint and forced him to come with them to Plymouth.  Mysteriously short thereafter he became sick and died.  This made the indians angry and so King Phillip took over and started a war against the colonists.
