of Daniel Boone. Following the path of the earlier Argonaut, Boone,John Crockett in 1783 crossed the Alleghanies, butsettled in eastern Tennessee, instead of Kentucky. Intliis wilderness David was born. It was a land with-out religion, without schools, without civilization.In such an environment the weaker children died.Naked as a little Indian, David Crockett ran aboutthe rude cabin, and lived because he was fit to sur-vive. One of his earliest recollections is that of anincident in which his uncle, Joseph Hawkins, fig-ured. Hawkins accidentally shot one of the neigh-bors, the ball passing through his body. There wasno surgical skill possible, and it was considered theproper thing in the treatment of this wound to passa silk handkerchief, carried on the end of a ram-rod, from one end to the other of the wound.Crockett appears to have seen his father pull a silkhandkerchief entirely through the body of thiswounded neighbor. It was a strong breed, that ofTennessee a hundred vears ago!
