Why do native american villages keep a vacant house called strangers’ house?

Kamila [148]3 years ago

The answer is to offer a warm place to sleep and have conversations after a meal.

In the words of Benjamin Franklin in an essay he wrote about Native Americans...

There is in every village a vacant dwelling, called the stranger’s house. Here they are placed while the old men go round from hut to hut, acquainting the inhabitants that strangers are arrived, who are probably hungry and weary; and every one sends them what he can spare of victuals, and skins to repose on. When the strangers are refreshed, pipes and tobacco are brought; and then, but not before, conversation begins, with inquiries who they are, whither bound, what news, etc.; and it usually ends with offers of service, if the strangers have occasion of guides, or any necessaries for continuing their journey; and nothing is exacted for the entertainment.

Answer:

The overview of the given problem is outlined in the following section of the explanation.

Explanation:

Dear Sir/Ma'am,

As you were conscious that I've been struggling with such an infection or disease for a long period that has remedied the time I generally spend on my research. I hope you know that I had all my projects sent long before the actual deadlines throughout the past.

It would sincerely value your decision to forgive my failure to come up with a proposal. In my view, any sort of extension would have been a tremendous benefit.

Thank You.
