[Report of atrocities by the Indians in Washington county]
The person above mentioned to have escaped from the enemy,
says that he was taken by six Indians, two of which called
themselves Moravians, spoke good Dutch, and were the most
severe and ill natured to him. . .
While at Muskingum, the two Moravian Indians learned him an
Indian song, which they frequently made him sing, by way of
insult, and afterwards interpreted to him in obscene
language. . .
