The Indians according lo the British account led down the ridge across the present acquednct, to what is called Indian bridge; which then, as now, crossed Tippetts brook. On gaining the western bank, they secreted themselves amid the rocks and bushes; here the cavalry pursued them; but being un-able to scale the rocks, called upon the fugitives to surrender; promising them as a condition for so doing, life and protection. Upon tliis, three ventured to throw themselves upon the mercy of the British soldier, and were immediately drawn out by the bridge and cut to pieces. Notwithstanding the strictest search that could be made for the remainder, four managed to escape to the American lines beyond the Croton. Oneof these survivors by the name of Job, lived to a good old age; gaining his livelihood by fishing on the banks of the Hudson; but whenever he could be tempted to relate the horrors of that day, the big tears would start in his eyes and he would sob like a child. Nimham the Indian chief fell as related by the hand of Wright, Simcoe's or-derly huzzar, in the swamp between Jesse Halstead's house and John and Frederick Devaux's, now the Mankin property. There it was left a prey to the dogs and crows to be devoured at their leisure. All trace of the bones are now gone.
