A Footprint in Blood on the Old
Family Bible.
HEIRLOOM in THE HARRISON FAMILY.
James Harrison, Special Agent for the
Burlington, Relates an Incident of
Early Indian Wars in the State OF
Kentucky.

A large, old-fashioned family bible
with a portion of the pages pierced
with an Indian arrow, and the foot
print of a savage stamped in blood
one one of the pages of the book, is
among the many interesting heirlooms
in the possession of T. B. Harrison, of
Liberty township, near WOODBURY.. A
book SO marked naturally has an in
teresting history. The present own
er of the book is the father of James
Harrison, of Charlton, special agent
for the Burlington, who was in Ottum-
wa recently and briefly related the
story connected with the bible and it's
grewsome record.
In the early part of 1900 Mr.. and
Mrs. Eli Harrison, father and mother
of T. B. Harrison, resided in Ken
lucky. Mr.. Harrison was engaged in
the Indian wars of that time and one
day block house in which Miss
Swank, cousin of Mrs. Eli Harrison
had taken refuge was attacked by the
Indians. Miss Swank had in her pos
session the old family bible which was
then a family relic She was shot
thru the heart with an arrow from the
bow of the Indian warrior, and as she
fell, the bible with it's pages opened,
fell on the floor at her side. The In
dian seeing it, pulled the arrow from
the breast of the woman, and shot it
into the book. He then placed his
bloodstained foot on the page of the
bible and removed the arrow. The
imprint of the foot made by the life
blood of the woman whom he murder.
ed is still discernable on the sacred
book.
Eli Harrison, grandfather of James
Harrison, was cousin of General
Harrison, and was engaged under him
in the battle Of Tippacanoe, where he
| was wounded three times. The bible
which has been handed down from
the pioneer family is said to be over
$50 years old. T. B. Harrison, who
| has resided near WOODBURY. since 1865
has a number of old-fashioned nipple.
ments of war and agriculture which
| are more than a century and hall
old. Included among these are a
! broad-ax, a wooden plow mould board
and an old-fashioned corn gritter.
