He converted during the same Great Awakening that filled a Boston field with 20,000 people. He preached to massive crowds across England and Scotland, raising enough money to found what he believed would be a school for his own people. Instead, that money helped found Dartmouth College — and Samson Occom never forgot the betrayal.
