About the Book

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1819. Excerpt: ... MICHAEL HEDEN, sworn. Examined by the Attorney-general. Heden. I was living, in the year 1816, and during the summer of that year, at a place called Red River, in the Indian territory. I was there in the month of June, in the capacityof a servant in the Settlement. I was a blacksmith. We were compelled, I think it was on the 23rd of that month, to leave it, by the party who attacked us on the 19tli. We were warned, both by the hunters and free Canadians, that we were to be turned out of Red River; both the Indians and free men told us that we were to be attacked. On the evening of the 19th of June, perhaps about six or seven o'clock, as we had for some time before kept a watch at the fort, the man on watch gave notice that a party of armed men were going towards the Settlement. Governor Semple was alarmed, and took a spyglass, and went to look, accompanied by Captain Rogers. He soon came down again, ( I did not go with him to look, ) and said the half-breeds belonging to the NorthWest Company were coining. He told about twenty men to take their arms and follow him, to see what those fellows were about. There were about forty servants, men, women, and children, in the fort at the time. Perhaps about thirty or forty men, now I recollect, but I am not sure. I think about twenty-eight men went out with him. I do not know how many were left, but there were, I should think, more than ten left. There were three or four pieces of cannon at the fort. Going on, at a little distance from the fort, we met some women and children running, clasping their hands, and crying; they said the half-breeds were coming, and the North-West, with carts and cannon. Going on a little further, we met more of the settlers, men, women, and children, who said the same. Mr. Semple did no..
