NcENpIARY WARFARE.

2. q IL
The following is.a note, attached to On
!, Grafton, delivered at Windsor, Yer
mont, on the 22d day of February last,
at the request of the Washington, Be-
nevolent Society, by Josiah Durham,
Esq.
aSome years ago Mnrayian Mission
from the Bsthleham Society in Penn.
established itself at Fairfield gu. c on
the River Thames, about 90 miles from
Detroit. The object Of this I" labor of
love-" was to chfistianize the hcathen !;
and it was signally accompanied with the
divine blessing About one hundred &
fay Indians had separated themselves
from their brethren and under the in-
spection AMI care of their pious teach
.ers had become one family Of CHRISTIANS.
They had erected about Fifty houses, be-
sides school-house, for the education
Of yoepg Indians, and church in which
divine service was regularly performed.
" Their society was prosperous and
happy till it was alarmed with the sound
of war. yyhen Hati invaded Canada.
hey applied to the General Government
for projection. In jane, 1918, this ap.
nlics,ion was renewed; and they re-
ceiyed a letter from the Secretary OF
War, assuring them that instructions
were,giyen to cur commanding geserals
10 that effect. Mark the result On the
evening of the sih of October, the day
of Harrison's victory over the British,
the American troops began 10 enter
Fairfield, only mile and an half from
The battle ground. The Indians fed
theugh the Missionaries were at hrst
treated kindly but that very night IN
stead Of protection and respect, they be
can to receive contuncly and insult
Every trunk in their possession was ex'
mined. &their houses strongly guarded.
On the 9th, the troops commenced q
general piIIage. The horey OF ten bee
hives was devoured, while the bees were
yei living. At this moment, Gensial

Harrison arrived. All the separation to
be ostaiped from him was" permis-
sion to leave the place"
Commodore Perry, interfered he
respected the Mission and sympatbized
with the Missionaries in their suffer
ipss. He procured them passports
and urged them to quit, when he did,
lest in his absence, the might NOT be
permitted to go az al. Harrison was
soon left unrestrained by the generous
Perry-the Missionaries were driven
out, and every suiiding in the place
