Indian Raid in Llano County Leaves Victims and Captives
In December 1867 a raid by about twenty five Indians struck Legion Valley near Disheville in Llano County. Women hid, some were killed or scalped, and captives were taken as a pursuit formed toward Hell's Gate. Several residents pursued the raiders with a recovering body count and accounts of brutal acts.
