BEDFORD WEEKLY MAIL BEDFORD, INDIANA FRIDAY, MAY 9, 1902 Paoli, Ind., May 5. The place of burial of Capt. William Charles, who was killed at French Lick Springs, in early days, by the hostile Indians, was discovered there recently by workmen, who were digging a ditch in which to lay water mains. For years only a cherry tree marked the resting place, but the tree had been removed and the improvements at the place have entirely obliterated the resting place of Captain Charles. History says that he was killed by the Indians in 1813, while plowing in a field near the fort, the Indians creeping close to him from the adjoining forest and shooting him from behind a stump. The rangers were away some distance from the fort when he was shot, and hastened to the scene and found an arrow through one arm and several tomahawk holes in his hat, made in attempting to scalp him. The wife of Charles died in a short time after with a broken heart. After his death she wore the hat which he had on at the time.
