Very interesting but I think he means scalped. Unless, of course, she
was somehow removed from some outer shell thingy.
Up to my gills today and trying so hard to get comments out on the
Argyle report, 11 pages and counting now.
Trip to Tuscaroroa Nation (NiagaraFalls) this Friday is pulling me in
another direction at present.
More later,

Subject: Scalloped
In 1709 Rev. Francis Le Jau of St James Goose Creek Parish in SC wrote
that an Indian trader had "caused a poor Indian Woman a Slave of his to
be scalloped within two miles of my house, she lived 2 or 3 days in
that miserable condition and was found dead in the woods"
Is "scalloping" some kind of torture or did he mean "scalped" ?
thanks,
Carl
