"Then I took my children (and one of my sisters hers) to go forth and leave the house: but,as soon as we came to the door and appeared,the Indians shot so thick that the bullets rattled against the house as if one had taken a handful of stones and threw them,so that we were forced to give back.We had six stout dogs belonging to our garrison,but none of them would stir,though at another time if an Indian had come to the door,they were ready to fly upon him and tear him down.The Lord hereby would make us the more to acknowledge his hand,and to see that our help is always in him.But out we must go,the fire increasing,and coming along behind us roaring,and the Indians gaping before us with their guns,spears,and hatchets to devour us.No sooner were we out of the house,but my brother-in-law (being before wounded in defending the house,in or near the throat) fell down dead,whereat the Indians scornfully shouted and hallowed,and were presently upon him,stripping off his clothes.The bullets flying thick,one went through my side,and the same (as would seem) through the bowels and hand of my poor child in my arms.One of my elder sister's children (named William) had then his leg broke,which the Indians perceiving they knocked him on the head."
