To Prevent
Their Proceedings Being Known, They Killed And Then Cut Off The Heads
Of The Two English Hostages; And,
On the same afternoon on which
Captain B. had left them, they were in full retreat across the lake,
with
Baggage, children, &c. The whole of them afterwards spent the
remainder of the winter together, at a place twenty to thirty miles to
the south-west, on the south-east side of the lake. On Captain B.'s
return to the lake next day or the day after, the cause of the scene
there was inexplicable; and it remained a mystery until now, when we
can gather some facts relating to these people from the Red Indian
woman Shawnawdithit.]
