| | History of Schoharie County by Jeptha R. Simms |
 | | Boyd was detached by Gen. Sullivan from the inlet of the Kanaghsas lake, a log bridge was begun and finished in the night, or early in the next morning, over the inlet. |
 | | Boyd, supposing if any one escaped with life it would be Murphy, determined to follow him, but not being as fast a runner, he was soon taken, and with him one of his men named Parker. |
 | | Boyd, believing the assurance of Brant ample for his safety, too high minded to betray his country on the appearance of danger, refused, as did Parker, to answer Butler's questions; and the latter, executing his threat, gave them over to a party of Seneca Indians. |
