Rowlandson was not shown a similar kindness.

Explanation:

"The Narrative of the Captivity and Restoration of Mrs. Mary Rowlandson" tells the story of Mary Rowlandson in her own words, and she many times describes this captivity as a hard proof of her faith and even when she says that she never got any physical abuse she was still in a hostile situation in a place against her will, and she was definitely not a guest of honor.
