First sentence: A PLOWED-UP arrow in a cornfield, an occasional Indian mound in the shadow of the forest, a creek named Bowl, and a town and a county named Cherokee are poignant reminders of old Chief Bowles and his Cherokee people, who claimed a large area of East Texas as their particular paradise from 1819 to 1839.
