Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Historic Events of Worcester: A Brief Account of Some of the Most Interesting Events Which Have Occurred in Worcester During the Past Two Hundred Years
Again the Indians proved too terrifying; for the bloody happenings all about Worcester, in Queen Anne's War, caused the abandonment of the mills, the fort, and the rude log houses which had sprung up after the manner of a town. Digory Sergent stayed on after every one had gone, and paid for his risk with his life. His wife, also, was killed by the Indians and his children led away. Two of them chose to remain with their captors all their lives. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
