Conspiracy of Pontiac
The Seige of Detriot
Then some of his young men, sent by him, went to the house of an old woman, on the common, and killed her, her seven children and all her cows.
Pontiac sent the prisoners to Mr. Louis Campau's (at the little chapel, on the bank of the river, above the fort). They were put into the hands of the Canadians, and soon after were sent to the house of Meloche.
From Campari's the Indians went to Hog Island, where they killed a part of Fisher's family, consisting of himself and wife, and thirty soldiers, who were employed in building a house for the government; but saved two girls (children of Fisher), and a servant as prisoners.
