I'll answer it and say I'm fine

When she thinks of her Sammy Boy.

With snow knee deep mid sleet and

These unfortunates were tied to posts and surrounded by pine wood, ready to be lighted to consume them. The Tennesseeans and their Choctaw a1- lies charged just in time to save the proposed victims. The redskins f1eo at the first alarm, and most of them escaped by swimming or in canoes. Chief Weathersford's flight was dra- matic. In vain he rallied his war riors and when he found himself de- serted, he mounted his horse and, hotly pursued, fled to bluff on the river. He drove the horse over the precipice, and the animal and rider disappeared under the river. In moment they reappeaEed, and Weath- ersford, grasping the mane of his charger with one hand and his rifle with the other, hurled curses of de- fiance at his pursuers. He escaped in Gafc:y. The Choctaws plundered Eccnochaca and then laid 1t in ashes. Weathersford was the son of a white peddler and Creek woman. At thr massacre of Fort Mims. which he led, he sought to prevent the killing ofFwomen and children, but could not restrain his ferocious warriors

ANNIVERSARY OF ECoNocAoA.

White mans medicine proved more powerful than that of the In- dians in the battle of Econochaca, which was fought 105 years ago to- day, Dec. 23, 1913. Gen. Claiborne, one of the American officers charged with the suppression of the Indian uprising, appeared before Econocha- ca, or Holy Ground" "a village built by the half-breed chief, Weathers- ford, on the morning of the battle. The town was on the left bank of the Alabama river, and was almost sur rounded by ravines and swamps. The redskins also believed that the place was protected by the Great Spirit and that no paleface could tread up- on the ground and live. The place had been dedicated as a haven of refuge for the wounded Indians and the women and children of the war ring tribes, Tecumseh and the Proph- ct presiding at the dedication ceremo- nial. The square of the town was the scene of the Indian incantations and their horrible human sacrifices White prisoners and Indians friendly to the palefaces had there been tor tured and roasted.
 When Claiborne szappeared before the town with his arrny of whites and friendly ChoctaWs, he found the square filled with people, preparing for the sacrifice of number of In dians and half breeds who hadsmant- fested friendship for the whites.
