[Savage Colonial Gothic] Samuel James Pickett

MW played Samuel James Pickett, a woodsman from Ohio and cousin to Ezekiel. His was a sad story: he moved to Ohio to pursue game pelts with a friend, met a native woman and married. He and his friend borrowed money to start their business and his friend ran off with it all, betraying Samuel and his wife's tribe to the British. Many natives died in the British attack and Samuel's wife was one of them. His wife dead, his business in ruins and his life in tatters, he returned to Boston just in time for the game to start.

When I ran the next adventure, Samuel's former business partner turns up - as a British Lieutenant!
