'On the Oth, of August 1778, James
Brady a brother of Captain Sain
Brady was killed by the Indians at
the farm of Peter "Smith on Turkey
Run not far from Williamsport.
The summer' before Smith had lost
his wife and four children, they hav
ing been murdered near the Loyal
'Sock Creek, b3' the Indians. This j
was just before the "Big Runaway" |
of 1777. The following year the i
military having returned, the farm- I
1 ers under their protection, sought to
harvest their crops. Eight soldiers
and fourteen reapers among the lat
' ter being James Brady, wont to tlie J
Smith farm. The first day they I
were not disturbed, but on the sec
ond day they were attacked by a ;
large party of Indians under tho j
celebrated chieftains of the Six •
Nations. The Bald Eagle who had j
his residence in the forests near |
where Milesburg now stands, and j
Wahallak who occasionally joined j
in a foray into the West Branch i
and Wyoming Valleys, but who j
claimed the Gcncssee Valley for his ;
home. Of the tWenty-two men pies-:
ent, James Brady was the only one j
who showed fight, lie made a stand j
alone, the others cowardly deserting
him He was tomahawked and
scalped and died ilie fifth day there- j
after. Capt. Sam Brady took a
solemn vow that both Wahallak and
Bald Eagle should die. Several
years after this he killed and scalped
Bald Eagle on the Allegheny River.
Wahallak was killed also by Capt.
Brady in August 1779, on the divide
between Muncy and Loyal Sock
Creeks, near LaPorte, in Sullivan
county. The exact place is not
precisely known, but from the de
scription of the place given by Peter
Grove it is supposed to be the
mound just east of the village and on
the banks of Lake Mokoma.
In August 1?7'.1a party of Seneca
Indians under Wahallak entered tho
house of Henry Oilfillen above
Northumberland and took into cap»
tivity his daughter Rebecca and a
son aged about fourteen. The re
mainder of the family escaped. Gil
fillen had himself been killed tho
month preceeding in the defense of
Fort Freeland. When word was >
brought of this outrage to Capt.
Brady, he at once made up a small
party to pursue the savages. Al-'
though composed of but five men
the party contained several of the
bravest Indian fighters the West
Branch Valley held. It was lead
"by Capt. Sam Brady and Robert Cov
enhorn, Moses Von Campen, Peter I
Groves and Waham Campbell werel
the other members. The usual
course for the Indians was up the,
Lycoming Creek and thence across I
the mountains to Towanda Creek,
and up the North Branch to Tioga
Point (Athens). On the second day I
out Brady's party traced the nai'ty j
of Indians to tho mouth of Muncy,
Creek, where it was discovered they
had separated. The larger party;
had proceeded up the river, while i
a smaller party had gone up the
Muncy Creek. The foot print of a
shoe in the sand of the creek bank
satisfied Brady the prisoners were
"with the smaller decision of the
savages, and he lead his party rapid
ly forward. That night they dis
covered the Indians in camp at the
mouth of a small run which from
Groves narrative must have been
Rock Run. The party numbered
fifteen and both children were with
them. Tho Indians were on the
alert and no suitable opportunity was
found to suprise them that night.
So following Brady's advice the
whole party laid down and obtained
a good sleep. At day break the
Indians took up their march. At noon
they had reached the head waters of
Miil Creek, hero we give Grove's
narrative in his own language. Then
we left the Muncy Waters and got
on a small stream flowing into the
Stone hauge (Loyal Sock). It was
swampy and lull of big sand springs, |
the Indians called it Mokoma, that is
Spring Water. They followed along
the bank and about noon stopped
for dinner at the foot of a bank
where there was a fine spring of
water. We were on the other side
of the swamp on a long point of dry
land, that ran out into the swamp
not more thai three hundred feet
across at this place, just below where
they stopped and to our right was a
hill quite high and covered with
U«c.. The swamp had some big
timber iu it ami at this season was
not so wet as to prevent us from
getting across. Brady knew of this
I spring and we ' had got ahfcad and
I waited for tliefti. Brady wanted no
Jone to shoot Wahallak but himself
lie said he had killed Tames Brady
and he believed he was one of the
party that killed his father at Wolf
T?tin. We all promised not to shoot,
the chief. As they came up
WahaUak was ahead. Sam says?
take them in order as they come (lie
as I give the word then drop ar.d
wait' until 1 start, then follow me In
to the swamp loading as we run."
He said he knew the party and thoy
were good fighters. Just before we
fired Wahallak stepped back and
spoke to Rebecca. This brought
her between him and our fire. Sam
sa\s that saves him this time, but
I have the Black Bear, and he gave!
the word. We killed our men And !
dropped to our faces, in a few sec- j
onds the Indians fired a volley at
the smoke but no one was hurt j
Sam was up like a deer and into the i
swamp. The Indians jumped for the ;
swamp too, and we had it there for i
a while vet 3' sharp and finally we!
were pressed back onto the ridge !
when we first fired only higher up. j
The Indians did not follow us but
withdrew to the high point first !
spoken of. There was big timber j
there and they kept well hid. Sam
and 1 lay together behind a hemlock, j
Wc could see across the swamp.
Sam says ''Hist I have him." 11
looked and saw \\ ahallack standing
by the side of a small hemlock talk
ing to another Indian. It was a
very difficult shot to make because
the brandies were so thick. I said
"Sam you can't do it." He said
Peter I never uiissed one of my
brothers murderers and 1 can't now.
You take aim at the little fellow,
and tire when 1 press your foot. Iu
a second he gave the word. \\ a
liallak sprang in the air and fell down
the steep bank toward the swaaip.
The smaller Indian run over the hill.
We sprang in theswamp. Wc heard
two cracks oIT to the left. Sam says
"Peter that was Robert's rifle and
Campbell's." We ran up to the
steep bank and found WahaUak
lying over a log not dead but vomit
ing blood from a bullet through his
lungs. As we came up he said
"Brady" Yes" says Sam "'it is
Brady" with that he took out his
'tomahawk and killed him and took
ulf his scalp. "He scalped James
before he killed him,l can't do that"
said Sam. We heard more shots off
to the spring and we ran down the
.Mill to a little water course below the
spring. There we caught, sight off
the Indians and caught two more.
When they saw we were behind
them they ran up the hill. It was
very steep and covered with rocks.
We followed them a short distance
but did not go far. We found both
children safe and sound and got
them home all sr.fely. We "killed
eight birds, Wahallak and did not'
lose a man ourselves.
This is taken from the narrative
adventurers of Peter Crow who was
himself a celebrated Indian Slayer.
Portions of his story may be found |
in Meginness' "Otzinaclison" or j
History of the West Branch Vall«y, j
and also llazzards Register Vol. lx |
and in the Pennsylvania Archive. [
Where the history of the sufferings j
of the early settlers of the \\ est j
Branch Valley is related.
The places mentioned in this arti- j
cle can easily be found in tliei
Mokoma Valley. The spring men- |
tioned is now covered by water and ,
is just at the foot of the mound on j
the shores of Lake Mokoma;
called Krause's Point, and is just,
South of the cabin occupied bv
William Mo ver, Capt. of the Mokoma
grounds. The hill oil which Wa
hallak stood is properly designated
as Mount Wahallak, and is a bold
promontory a few rods North of
Mover's cottage and commands a
fine view of the Lake. The high
ground on which Brady and Grove
were concealed is just across the
Lake and has long been known as
Brady's Point. The small hemlock
spoken of on the narrative is still
standing on Mount WahallaK.
The inarch of improvement lias
changed the Mokoma swamp of
the Senescent into a beautiful and
picturesque sheet of water, and the
shores on which these uardy scouts
of the West Branch waged cespenile
J strife with their si.vage and cruel
enemies will soon be covered with
' yieeu lawns and handabmo cottages.
I Thirty New *mte« m a fvntury.
I
Tlio original thirteen States rep
resented by the fitst Congress held
tfbder our present Constitution were
appropriately honored on the 4tli
inst, by conventions held in five new
Territories applying for admission
into the Union. The application of
four of those Territories have been
already grunted, North and South
.Dakota, Washington, and Montana,
by Congress and tin people of Idaho
lield their convention to take the
preliminary steps for the same pur
pose. When these five new States
shall have been dn'y organized and ■
representee in Congress it will make
thirty States in addition to the orig
inal thirteen that elected George
Washington President in 1789. |
This is a good showing for a century,!
but not better than that made in ;
every avenue of civilization, freedom
and progress* Some of England's [
political prophets took delight at'
the beginning in predicting that the i
thirteen would Drove an unlucky j
number, and that America's free in-}
stitutions would not prove sufficient
ly oohesive to stand the strain for
any length of time. The century's
experience, however has shown not
only to England but to all other
enemies that it was decidedly un
lucky to attempt to block tlio pro
gress of her triumphal car.
Kdiicili For I.nUiri r« Wrong'*. I
The labor riot that occurred the
other da}' at Duhith is in every way
a most unfortunate occurrence.
Several persons were killed and
nr'.ry more wounded because the
strikers had recourse to violence
when a moment's reflection would
have shown them tli:»t they could
not attain their object iu that .vav
: The moment a body of workmen on
[ strike appeal to force, t hat moment
i they set the laws at defiance an 1
! divei't the public attention from the
jusi ice of their demands to the ncces-,
j sity of upholding the law.
Jf there is one thing that the ;
I history of the labor movement in
this country teaches it is that labor
I cannot be benefited by the employ
ment of the methods adopted by the
strikers at lhilutli. No doubt it is
j hard to put up with the injustice
wage-workers are often called upon
to submit to. Hut the lesson o''self-j
control must be learnt if labor is to
achieve anything. There are hot
heads who are ever ready to advise
a recourse to violence. But they
are unsafe leaders, whose ad vis j if
followed is bound to injure tlio hi-|
bur movement.
Another thing. This appeal to
■force in a land where every man Las
a vote and is at liberty to enter into
■combination with others for the bet
tering of his condition is a species
of treason against American institu
tions. Whatever excuse labor may
have for employing force in coun
tries where it is disfranchised it can
plead no excuse for having recourse
to violence iu a land where, if prop
erly organized, it can mold public
opinion iu a way that it will maun it
possible for labor to obtain all its
just demands without coming into
collision -.villi the law, which after
all, is only the expression of the will
of the people.
If it be urged that laws are fram
ed by and in the interest of the few
the answer suggests itself that this |
could not bo possible i'.i a land of
universal siilferage 4 if the voters were
intelligent and honest enough to
elect legislators that would repje-!
s<'iit the views of those electing
them. Coliseum ntly political edti-|
cation and perfected organization!
are the two things needed by labor.
In the meantime the employment of
brute force cannot advance the in-1
tcrcsts of workingmen.

AFTER THE RAILROADER'S.
New Orleans, July 15.—A
Purvis, Mississippi, special says:
I To-day has been a busy one with
I District Attorney Neville. Frst this
| morning came the eases against C.
jW. Rich, of this county, and J. T. ;
! Jamison, ot Lauderdale County,
who were brought to this place by
the sherilf's of the respective coun
ties last night, they having been ar
j rested on warrants charging them
' with aiding and abetting the Sulli
ivan-Kiirain light. These parties
wr.ived examination and were placed
' under bonds ol' i?l,000 each for then 1
I appearance at tno nest term cf
court.
llumor lias it that affidavits hava
been made against R. C. Carroll and
1,.. C. Tyler, Superintendents of' the
New Orleans and Northeastern
Railroad, and that the Governor has
been expected to -Issue extradition
papers fort hem.
Thus begins the fight against the
railroad. Nearly everybody is with
the Governor in this fight, and
knowing the District Attorney to
be a eoneientious and determined
I official, it can be safely said that
the guilty parties may expect a
I vigorous prosecution.
| John Fitzpatriek, of New Orleans,
referee in the Sullivan-Kilrain light,
i arrived hero last night lie went
I to the Governor's otlice this morn
; ing as soon as it was opened, and
| informed the Governor thai he had
j come to answer whatever charge
i there might bo lodged against liini
; tor alleged violation of the laws of
i Mississippi. Preliminaries were
; waved, and Mr. Fitzpatriek gave j
! bond iu the sum of SI,OOO to appear
: at Purvis. Marion County, on Thurs
day the 18th. This bond was
promptly signed by citizens of this
