The brig. was not arriv'd when this account left Barbados, she not going so well as the sloop. The person who cut Capt. BRADDOCK's throat was an Indian who had been some time with him. 'Tis said he was so strong that three men could not bind him, and they were forced to hamstring him before they could master him. They put the boy's eyes out and flung him over-board,! but he swimming took hold of the vessel and they cut his hands off. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ PA-Old-News ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ NewspaperAbstracts.com - Finding our ancestors in the news!
