the name of the Indian tribe to which my great-great

name of the tribe was Seneca.”
My middle name, Tree, comes from your basic tree, a thing
of such beauty to my mother that she made it part of my
name. She wanted to be more specific and use Sugar
Maple Tree because Sugar Maple is part of her own name,
but Salamanca Sugar Maple Tree Hiddle sounded a bit
much.

she was used to being plain and ordinary, that she was not

58. The Tide Rises, the Tide Falls Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807–1882)
The tide rises, the tide falls, The twilight darkens, the curlew calls; Along the sea-sands damp and brown The traveler hastens toward the town, And the tide rises, the tide falls.
Darkness settles on roofs and walls, But the sea, the sea in the darkness calls; The little waves, with their soft, white hands, Efface the footprints in the sands, And the tide rises, the tide falls.
The morning breaks; the steeds in their stalls Stamp and neigh, as the hostler calls; The day returns, but nevermore Returns the traveler to the shore, And the tide rises, the tide falls.
