That is chronicled in an article in the Chronicles of Oklahoma sometimes about 1930's. It was a very good article. According to the article, Allen and John were walking in the back yard, when a knife was thrown over the fence. Neither spoke. The knife, per the article, was used in the slaying of Elias Boudinot, not far from the Ross mansion. I think Oklahoma State University has the Chronicles of Oklahoma online; somebody does, at least. ==== CherokeeGene Mailing List ==== This list is for Genealogy related conversations Your supporting website http://www.wvi.com/~wb/Cherokee1.html Please Good manors and no flaming others For Culture, ridges; bumps; skin tones; or Language lessons Please visit CHEROKEE-L-request@rootsweb.com You can also find what you need search the archives or to get off this list via web site below http://lists.rootsweb.com/index/other/Ethnic-Native/CherokeeGene.html Listowner = CherokeeGene-admin@rootsweb.com __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
