INCIDENT IN FLoRIDA-The ST. Augustine
News relates an incident which occurred at
the late capture of the Indians by Mr.. Major
ChiIds at the Haulover:
When the Indians were surprised in their
fishing operations by the troops, those who es-
capped immediate capture or death made off in
various directions in their boats. Most of
them were taken in the pursuit by the troops,
One yawl-boat containing three warriors, two
children and four squaws, was chased by Lieu
tenant Taylor, two privates and the sergeant.
When they had got within rifle shot Of the
Indians; their boat got aground. They all
jumped out to pull the boat into deep water,
and In doing so, got so suddenly beyond their
depth, that they were completely immersed
arms and all. The sergeant was the only
one who escaped immersion. The Indians
now fired upon them from their boat, but
without effect. The sergeant returned il
and one of the warriors was. seen 10 fall back
in the boat. He then threw down his rife,
and armed with bowie knife, he started alone
in pursuit of the Indian boat He ran, and
swan, and waded, as circumstances deman-
ded, till he got his hand on the enemy's boat
desperate struggle now ensued between the
Indian and the sergeant. They were both
powerful men, and were not interrupted in
their duel, for one of the other two warriors
jumped out of the boat and made his escape as
soon as the sergeant approached, and the other
was too badly wounded to fight. The squaws
remained passive spectators Of the battle. 1t
was short and decisive. The Indian had no
weapon but his rifle, and that was of no great
use at short quarters. His object at first was
to beat out his advesary's brains, but finding
that impracticable, his next aim was to prevent
the enemy from boarding him, in which he
IL e -
the white man got footing in the boat, his
bowie knife soon ended the struggle. 1t pass
ed three times in rapid succession into the
breast of the savage! The brave sergeant
having scalped the Indian, called out to the
officer at the top of his voice: "Lifiendnt wiR
l scalp the rest Of 'em7" meaning the wounded
warrior and the squaws. On receiving neg
ative reply, he padded up to his admlring
comrades with his prize.
