“This account is made up from ” Zeisberger’s Journal,” ” Holmes & Loskiel’s Missions,” “Willett’s Scenes in the Wilderness,” and “Doddridge’s Notes.” The actors in this foul transaction consisted of about one hundred men, from the western parts of Virginia and Pennsylvania, under the command of Col. David Williamson. The murder was premeditated, for their purpose was to proceed as far as Sandusky, in order to destroy all the Moravian Indians, whom they claimed had committed depredations upon the Ohio settlements.” Peter G. Thomson, A Bibliography of the State of Ohio (1880)
