Princeton’s Cherokee Chief

Thanks to W. Barksdale Maynard ’88 and PAW for introducing readers to William Potter Ross 1842 (feature, Oct. 22). This is the bittersweet story of a brilliant and accomplished Princeton alumnus. The Cherokee Nation has a distinguished history, and I am glad to learn that a Princetonian played such a central role in the destiny of his people.
