Diary from February 22,1872

I read this absolutely tragic article in the paper today. It was about some Indians attacking this small little neighborhood during the French war. They stole the supplies from the settlers all up and down the colonies, then these savages had the nerve to turn the colonies weapons onto the places from which they stole them!

Killburn was the name of one of the first settlers of the area, and the hero of this thrilling story. As these savages crept up to killburn's house, he got the first shot. And with much help from a Colonel Bellows and his men, the savages were taken down. Killburn suffered a bullet to the hip and died from a lack of proper medical aid. 

It is the stories such as these that make us remember how lucky we are and how we are progressively ridding ourselves of the "Indian problem".
