Ben Wright and his party took time by the forelock. When light was inevitable they commenced to fight first. and it was a fair fight in which these savages were killed. They had assembled there for the purpose of acting treacherously and murdering Ben Wright and his party. as they had murdered whole trains of emigrants before. Going into the camps of these helpless. travelworn people. iader the guise of friendship. and pretending to extend aid and assistance to them. they butchered them in the most merciless manner. They perpetrated other crimes. too shocking. sir. fort me to describe in a decent and civilized assemblage.
