“I know right where those Kickapoo camped with Biggs,” our neighbor, John, said.  “It was on the rise just west of Mike’s. They missed one duck, though, ‘cause here’s the arrow they lost.” He laid a beautiful medium-sized arrowhead on the table. “And, they didn’t gut the second duck before cooking it because they lost their best hunting knife after they dressed the first duck for Biggs.” He laid a large white flint knife next to the first point. John found these and other beautiful points near Eagle Pond.
