lSDIASs.-A letter In the Austin Gazette
dated, LldnO, Feb. ilih, says that the In
disns some twelve or ffIeen in number at.
taoke d the house Of Mr., Jno. s. Friend, II
miles from Llano, on 9th, and shot Mrs
T. in the breast with an arrow; she fell and
the Indians scalped her, but she recovered
sufficiently TO watch the Indians who took of
Mrs. Boy Johnson and child, Mrs. Babe
johnson and child, Miss Townsend, n little
girl named - Cordle, and Mr.. Friend
little boy-seven in all. A squad of men
next morning followed the trail, and the
letter states that
One child, that ofMrs. Boy John.
son, was found next evening after
taken, about 3 l-2 or four miles from
Mr. Friends house. The next
morning we found Mrs. Babe John
sons child with its throat cut from
ear to ear, and about 10 o'clock of
same day, after trailing over one
of the toughest mountains, we found
both Mrs. Johnsons, murdered and
scalped. Th o same evening Miss
Townsend was found murder d =,
scalpcd, and horribly mutlated.-
These five of the seven were all
scalped and mutilated too horribly
to be described. The little Miss
Cordle and Mr.. Friends son, are
supposed to be still in the hands of
the Indians.
Parties have watched passes, and
tried to follow the trail but the In
di: MS have eluded all. Old Mr..
Smith was killed and sculped noar
the Old Fort Mason crossing on the
same day of the other depredations.
A great deal more could be written,
but time will not allow.
