According to an old story of the 1850’s an Indian tried to buy the wife of a pioneer because he liked the way she made doughnuts. Through a misunderstanding, the Indian was prepared to trade three Indian women for the young wife. As the legend goes, it took a council of war and a bushel of doughnuts to save the doughnut maker.
