Women of Bryant's Station Heroic Water Run
The fort at Bryant's Station near Lexington Kentucky faced a siege in 1782 with Indians encircling a spring outside the walls. Women from the stockade, educated by danger, risked their lives to fetch water, walking through open ground while one ambush waited by the spring. They returned unshot, preserving the fort’s slim chance of survival.
