The Pontiac Manuscript
To crown their tyranny the dead bodies remained in part stretched out along the road without interment, ' while the others were thrown into the river, which then became the heir of these poor remnants of their rage. Even the Indian women took a hand and : helped their husbands to feast on the blood of these pitiable victims by inflicting upon them a thousand cruelties; in fact they were the ones who made them suffer most. They larded them with knife-cuts as we lard beef, other women cut off from them that which makes the man. I could never end, would I undertake to describe the cruel sacrifice and pitiable end of all these- unhappy ones.
