safety of Vincennes that some citiz ems were
about to send their wives and children into
Kentucky and Ohio. The orders which
had been received there to march Colonel
boyd's regiment to Newport had not a little
contributed to excite these s~pprehensions.
his regiment is supposed to be destined
Tor Detroit. This state of aifiirs must be
very distressing to all the inhabitants of In-
diana, but particularly to the recent emf
grants and poorer people, most of whom de-
pend altogether upon their own lsbours tor
bare support, and were about preparing
to plant the corn on which they would have
to rely the ensuing year for provisions for
themselves, their wives aud children.
On the 22d April, the family of a Mr..
%Harryman "a mill-wright recently from
Vermont) consisting of himself, his wife
and FIVE children, were murdered by the 10.
dians, at their residence upon the Ember-
ras river, about FIVE miles from Vincennes.
A party was collected to pursue them, but
a rain which fell during the succeeding
night so obliterated their tracks as to rem
der the pursuit impracticable. Gov. Har-
rison had received information by express
on the 25th thar the family of a Mr.. Mix
was assailed by three Indians, on Little
Pidgeon creek ; he was shot down, his son
wounded in the arm by a t~omahawk, that
his mother saved the son by assailing the
Indian with an axe and drove him off: ano.
Their son fred from a house about 20 yards
off and killed one Indian. The others then
retreated, leaving the old lady aud her
daughter (who had snapped a rifle which
she supposed to be loaded. but was not) in
possession of the house. Similar occur
rences we expect to hear of daily.
