Extract of a letter from Virginia, dated October 24. . . [2
paragraphs] Our men returned the fire in the best manner
they could, but one of them came off when the engagement
first began, and it was feared was the only one that could
escape alive out of the whole.----This news soon spread all
over our country, and we were in the utmost consternation,
till yesterday afternoon we were told there were fifteen
more of our men returned: They all agree that it was
Delaware Indians that did this mischief.--Our court-house
bell has been ringing almost ever since, to call the
inhabitants to some consultation for their safety. . .
