Oonomoo the Huron
E-text prepared by Al Haines
"Oonomoo the Huron" by Edward Sylvester Ellis is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The story is set during a time of conflict between Native American tribes and settlers, focusing on the life of a Huron Indian named Oonomoo and his interactions with various characters, including settlers and fellow Indians. The narrative explores themes of loyalty, love, and the daily struggles of both Native Americans and settler life as they navigate through a world marked by war and cultural clash. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to Hans Vanderbum, a Dutchman married to an Indian woman, Keewaygooshturkumkankangewock. The scene unfolds in an Indian village in Ohio, showcasing their family dynamics, including their mischievous children. Vanderbum's lazy temperament contrasts sharply with the more active lives of those around him. As he embarks on various fishing attempts, he encounters Oonomoo, who is dealing with the aftermath of a Shawnee raid and is seeking to rescue a captured friend. The chapter sets the tone for the complexities of relationships in a world of cultural intermingling, anticipating the adventures and challenges that Oonomoo will face as he attempts to navigate the dangers posed by rival tribes.
