Notwithstanding the fast falling snow and the cold gales which swept from the north, Sevier s men, at the break of day, filed out to attack Tipton s men. Maxwell s troops fired a volley and raised a deafening shout. The THE LIFE OF SEVIER 167 men in the house, knowing that deliverance was at hand, sent up another shout which filled Sevier s shivering, half-clad troops with ter ror, and caused them to flee pell-mell into the woods. The sheriff of Washington County was mortally wounded. The canno...n of Se vier s battery fell into the hands of Tipton, and many of the Franks were taken prison ers, among them two of Sevier s sons, James and John. Tipton declared that he would hang them both. Learning of Tipton s threat, the two boys sent for Mr. Thomas and others with whom they were on good terms, and asked them to appease the wrath of Tipton and save their lives. These men went at once to Tipton and pleaded their cause well. They pictured to him the wretchedness of his own sons, whom he supposed to be in the hands of Sevier and about to be hanged for deeds im puted to himself, their father.
