‘ A BATTE WITH INDIANS.
Bloody One Was Fought Near Daw
i son Just Sixty-Two Years Ago.
I Sixty-two years ago, on the Echowa
i notchaway swamp, five miles of where
Dawson now stands, 'on the old road
leading to the farm once owned by Mr.
Horsley and in a mile or two of Mr.
Martin Harp’s old homestead, a bloody
battle with the Indians was fought,
The few settiers then here were startled
by the crack of the rifle and the roar of
the old regulation musket then used by
the American soldiers, The fight
cormmenced at sunrise and was kept up
till half past one o’clock, wkhen the In
diaps escaped on their way to Florida.
General Wellborn and Captain Jernigan
commanded the soldiers. Captain Moye,
whose people now give tone and
character to the people of Randolph
county, took an active part in the fighi.
Skirmishing had commenced with the
Indians the Monday before, and all over
the locality the settlers contested every
foot of ground. We lost six in killed
and twenty infwounded. The loss of the
Indians was large, ani after the battle
eighteen of them were found dead in a
pond on the place of Mr, Harp. The
home of Captain Stapleton was open
to the care of the wounded, a name then
as now, synonymns of all that is
generous and patriotic.
