The country girls were considered a menace to
the social order. Their beauty shone out too boldly
against a conventional background. But anxious
mothers need have felt no alarm. They mistook the

was stronger than any desire in Black Hawk youth.

through their contacts with the Black Hawk men and
their mothers.
The country girls are portrayed as vibrant and
beautiful, while the Black Hawk men are portrayed
as conventional and afraid of risks.
