FIR ON the Nankao Record, 23d.
During the attack on New Ulm, We'd
nesday evening. a rife ball struck against a
brick wall, and CHANGING, hit Miss PAUL. on
the forehead, killing her instantly.
A party of nine had been cut to Leaven
worth, fourteen miles distant in search OF
killed. They did not see an Indian until
near the hill returning to New Uim, when
about seventy-fye sprang up from among
the tall grass, in the form Of letter V.
fired upon the party, killed all but one, who
was mounted on horse which was shot,
and 10 the confusion, the rider managed to
escape. His name is JOhu Thomas.
A German living between the Big and
Little Cottonwood rivers, had fed an Indian
all last winter; this Indian led party OF
FIVE to murder his friend, but who iortu
nately escaped without serious injuries.
A man and wife living beyond New Ulm
was attacked. The wife was killed and
the husband fed to the cellar, where with
his hands he dug hole under the sill of the
house and escaped TO the town.
A little girl whose parents were killed,
escaped, aud says she knew five of the In
dians who killed her parents, and is positive
that they are annuity Sioux.
Another fact cOufrmatory of the above
is, that out of nine killed and brought into
New Ulm, only one was scalped.
A citizen OF New Ulm had married
daughter with five children living on the
Big Co tonwOod. Learning that they had
been murdered, be went in search of them
He found them all lying on the floor ap
parently dead. On examination be OBJ
served signs of life in little boy and girl
twins, two years old, and little girl aged
six years He carried them to New O'm
wh,re they are now in a fair way of recov'
ering. Each of these children was struck
on each temple, apparently with toma'
hawk. The little boy was cut on the lore
head, and the oldest girl on the back OF the
head, with the same weapon.
Most of the dead found, except those kill
ed in New Um, were tomahawked, and il
the most brutal manner.
