Those who did not suc- comb to malnutrition or disease, were put to work for the Queen, along the Hudson, then they were promised land to 'till, in the Schoharie Valley, but as usual, it was an unfulfilled promise; then the migration to the beautiful' Mohawk valley.

My Grandmother
By SUE JENNINGS (Continued from Last Week)
', My g-g-grandmother was alone in the house with her two chdn., when they surrounded it, and set it on fire. She said they riped open her feather beds and danced around with evident delight in seeing the feathers scatter- ed to the winds. After helping them- selves to everything they could find in the way, of provisions, or any- thing else that took their eye, they struck off into the woods, hurrying her , along . with them. She had " her baby in her arms and a little boy of two years ran by her side; but | 24 Sept. 1927 now of 904' Packard when he stumbled and feli, crying out St., Ann Arbor, Mich. 4th and 5th child of C.

My grand- father (g-g) was working in a field some distance from the house, his ever present friend, his rifle, near him, when the sight of the burning buildings startled him and he hurried Forest Eugene b. 1914, and Doro- home to find his buildings almost burned to the ground, his wife and chdn. gone; nothing more was needed to teli him of his fate and he hurried to follow the trail, until he reached the brush fence where he found his little boy, so cruelly mutilated but still breathing .. He took him in his arms and hurried back to the well where he found an apron belonging to his wife, and wetting it, he wrap- yped it around his child's head and hurried with him to the fort. This child, whom some of my mother'. older sisters' remember as Uncle Samuel, grew to manhood, and died of smail-pox in 1811. He always bore the mark left by the cruel scalping knife. (note by C. S. - He wore a skull-cap all his life. As told by my. mother by her g-grandmother who remembered him).

My g-g-grandmother traveled with the Indians all that day and the next, and the second night after her cap- ture was iying in camp, surrounded by sleeping Indians, when an Indian appeared outside the circle and sig- nailed her to come to him. Seeing that her ankles were tied with with- ers, he crept carefully past the sleep- ing savages and cutting the withers, she arose and followed him. Some- "thing familiar in his appearance had struck her when she first saw him, and as soon as they were out of hearing of the camp he made himself known as the little playmate of years ago, telling her that he was among the; band of Indians who had cap- tured her, and, recognizing her, he had sought" the first oportunity of helping her to escape. They soon' came to a stream down which they waded a long distance.
