最近，乔治·华盛顿(George Washington)的一封信被德克萨斯大学奥斯汀分校的多尔夫·布里斯科美国历史中心(Dolph Briscoe for American History)所收购，这封信“阐明了华盛顿对印第安关系的看法”，布里斯科中心的执行主任唐·卡尔顿说。

His anti-Indian sentiments were again made clear in 1783 when he compared Indians with wolves, saying “Both being beast of prey, tho’ they differ in shape.” After a defeat, Washington’s troops would skin the bodies of Iroquois from the hips down to make boot tops or leggings. Those who survived called the first president, “Town Destroyer.” Within a five-year period, 28 of 30 Seneca towns had been destroyed. (Related story: “Happy Presidents’ Day”)

当他将印第安人与狼进行比较时，他的反印第安人情绪在1783年再次得到明确，他说：“它们都是猛兽，只是形状不同。” 战后，华盛顿的部队会把易洛魁人的尸体从臀部剥落下来，制成靴子或绑腿。幸存者称第一任总统为“屠城者”。在五年内，塞内卡30个城镇中的28个被摧毁。
