That he this examinant, making some doubts, whether the
information he had, of the white people's being killed at
the Oaksuskees, was true, desired the captain to convince
him of it; when the captain readily went with him this
informant, to the trading-house at Oaksuskees, where he did
actually see, in the evening, just after sun-set, the body
of Mr. William Rea, a trader, and that of William Robertson,
a pack-horseman, lying dead in the yard, where Mr. Rea kept
his store, and at the same time saw a great number of
Indians at the Oaksuskee town, in the square, dancing the
war dance. . . .
