I must retract my post referring to the use of the phrase "white man's fly"
to John Bunyan. I cannot locate that reference, using the online sources for
that text. I did find some material from Thomas Jefferson, who indicated that
Indians used this term to refer to the honeybee, which appeared to swarm into
new territory shortly in advance of the white settlers, as they proceded to
settle inland areas. I will continue searching, but I believe my original
reference was incorrect.
