A Virginian Pioneer Defends Cabin Against Indians
In 1805 a Virginia settler near the Kanawha builds a cabin and uses a single musket charge to gun down five attacking Indians. He blocks the door, prays for dawn, and chases the sole survivor to the river, salvaging arms from the fallen. The tale ends noting his later peaceful life.
