Georgia: All in Translation

James Oglethorpe had an idea: he wanted to reform the debtor’s prison system in England by establishing a new colony in America called Georgia. The only problem was that the current residents of the ‘new land’ were members of the Yamacraw tribe and he did not speak their language. Luckily he met Mary Musgrove who not only could translate, but gave him invaluable advice that helped both Oglethorp and the Yamacraw people.
