In January, 1778, accompanied by thirty men, Boone went to the Blue Licks to make salt for the diirerciu stations ; and on the 7th of February following, while out hunting, he fell in with one hundred and two Indian warriors, on their march to attack Boonsborough. He instantly fled, but being upwards of fifty years old, was unable to contend with the fieot young men who pursued him, and was a second time taken prisoner. As usual he was treated with kindness \intil his final fite was determined,... and was led back to the Licks, Avhcre his men M'ere still encamped. Here his whole party, to the numl)cr of twenty seven, surrendered themselves, upon promise of life and good treatment, both of which conditions were faithfully observed. Had the Indians prosecuted their enterprise, they might, perhaps, by showing their prisoners, and threatening to put them to the torture, 296 BOONE. have operated so far upon the sympathies of the garrisons as to have obtained considerable resuhs. But nothing of the kind was attempt- ed.
