His a cries soon arrested the attention of some indians who were returning from Hogansburg by a land Road separated from the River by a Small Thicket of Woods. The Indian death cry was a Stull client signal to inform that a Friend was in distress. The whole party consisting of six or seven persons left their horses and sleighs and ran in the direction from whence the cry came and soon discovered the to fortunate boy struggling in the last agony of despair. They All stopped at the verge of the ice except one this was an Uncle of the boy he did not hesitate but plunged into the water perfectly a dismayed by the awful Prospect before him of Wloch he was cautioned by his then sinking Nephew in these words Quot Uncle do not Conio after me or you will perish with he swam a few rods when he met a Bur of inc that separated him from the Hole in which i his Nephew was he used All the strength he was master of to break the ice with his arms but finding it impracticable he dived under it a distance of about Twenty four feet and Reachel the Side of Iii Nephew who Hud already sunk below tie surface he caught him and wit i one Clifort of Herculian strength threw him on the ice when with very Little assistance lie might have been saved but being quite benumbed and probably insensible to his danger lie Slid Back into the water and was drowned. The generous Uncle whose Nanie deserves to be recorded Jean i Baptist Torrence was by the exertion made in swinging Iii Nephew on the ice driven under it on the opposite Side and was seen flouting Down wit i the current by the persons above at a distance of about 8 or 10 feet from the air Hole. In this most horrid of All imaginable situations he had the presence of mind to Endeavor to break the ice with his head but Vas twice unsuccessful alien in ids Mim words desperation impelled Huiai to one More Effort not however before he had taken a considerable Piantiny of water he managed with the motion of Iii hands and feet to gain the Bottom and with one bold Spring drove his head through the ice where he must yet have perished had he not been rescued by those on the ice.

Y Young John they were gladly received by their countrymen whose anxiety for the Fate of their fellow soldiers their wives and children was deep and painful. They burned with the fire of re Ventre. At length Chance threw a fit Opportunity in the Way. A Large body of French and indians were returning to their Camp besotted with excess when the news was communicated by a Friendly Indian to major Dalzell who immediately marched to meet them. Their yells were heard at a distance As the soldiers approached the Bridge the sight of whose planks yet Crim soned with their Kinsman s life blood added fresh vigor to their powerful arms. They placed an ambush As the Savages had done before. Soon the advanced party in a state of intoxication reached the fatal Bridge. Casting Many a disgusting joke while boasting of their former deeds of murder the. Tin Happy captives brought up the rear guarded by a party of sober Savages. At a signal the Little band suddenly poured Forth their Leaden volleys into the midst of the Savage foes and rushed upon them from their Covert Vith fixed bayonets. The carnage was dreadful no Quarter was Given. The blood ran in streams from the planks and destruction and death ruled the hour. The Sun at length set and the victorious soldiers loosing the hands of their captive friends and burying their dead in a Large Mound returned in safety to their fort. Thus was Given the appellation of the bloody Bridge to the passage Over the Miami whose dire tragedy still forms the theme for Many a Village nurse to Stop her wailing children s intrepidity Quot about six weeks ago a a Young Indian of the St. Regis tribe named Lamar table was formerly.

B. Is is. 362 for publishing by subscription a . A Zap of the Iti the subscribers having become concerned in the publication of this work respect ully inform the citizens of this state and the Public that they have made arrangements to insure its so needy publication. Some May have come to the conclusion that its publication was entirely abandoned in consequence of it not appearing at the expected by its author hence we deem it proper to say for the satisfaction of those who May have manifested a disposition to patronize it that the delay was occasioned entirely by circumstances beyond the control of its author. The undertaking is one which requires More labor and necessarily incurs greater expense than Many Are a Ware of or than the author himself at first anticipated. The delay however will afford the publishers an Opportunity of presenting much new and interesting matter which has been brought about by the late session of the general Assembly which will in some measure make the delay rather advantageous than otherwise. Suffice it to say then that the work a progressing and will be completed As soon As a due regard to correctness will per it Mit. We deem it unnecessary to beg the patronage of our fellow citizens to this work As we feel confident from the patronage already received they will take a pleasure in giving it their support Quot especially when they consider it is the production of their own and not of Mother state. To those who have not had an Opportunity of examining the manuscript we would say that it was presented to the members of the legislature at their session of 1829, and pronounced to be Correct and As an evidence we refer to their signatures on the prospectus or to the representatives themselves residing in Tea different sections of the state. Great pains have been taken to obtain Correct information in relation to the North part of the state and we Are much indebted to those gentlemen who have Long been engaged in the Indian Trade for the information acquired. The manuscript is now in the hands of or. We. Woodruff of Cincinnati whose Sharac ter As an engraver is Well known to he Public we May therefore say the work will be executed in a style not inferior to any in the United states.
