None have more interested me than that of Bloody Brook and Old Deerfield. It was in those places the Indians assembled in force to capture the tirst settlers. In Deerfield, they erected a strong fort by settling heavy timbers into the ground, standing up some fifteen feet above the ground, rudely covered. This fort, proof against tomahawk and bullets, would accommodate a large number of men and women ; arranged for all culinary purposes. The log-house by its side was another strong rendezvous. ...I was in this house before it was taken down. The logs were of white oak, and the doors were of very thick, white oak plank, with nails driven in, the heads as large as a cent-piece, touching each other. But the Indians dug a hole in the front door, and shot a man in the house. I saw where balls hit the ceiling. That door, I am told, is in the attic as the Indians left it. Men that cultivated the soil kept their rifles near them, and a man to watch as a sentinel. This was in the time of the French and Indian war.
