The Connecticut town of North Stonington on Tuesday said a holiday promise made by the Paucatuck Eastern Pequot Tribe is an empty one.

The tribe sent out Christmas cards to residents of three towns, promising not to displace homeowners through land claims. But the tribe, and the Eastern Pequot Tribe, both of whom reside on the Lantern Hill Reservation, have previously filed claims on two parcels of land and town leaders say the tribe's failure to disclose this fact to residents is sneaky.
