The year is 1675 and King Philip's War was ongoing.  The church in the US had warned the Indians that if they were walking about in the streets that they could be subject to muggings, beatings or even death.  SO, the "white Christians" told the "red Christians" to wear "a mark to distinguish them from the enemy, lest some of them, while out on business, might be taken for enemies, and be molested"

We saw another great example of this occurring when Hitler decided to "mark" the Jews with their yellow star of David and could not be out in public without this mark present.

I am reminded of another foretold instance where this scene will be enforced....
