I never saw the frontiers more alarmed; I have just cause to believe, there are no less than 29 Indians killed in the same manner, and am well informed of a scout being out at present endeavouring to find more. This the Indians bring on themselves; they come over the line among the settlements, insult the people, and endeavour to plunder and murder them.”

713. WH Sat Nov 21, 1795: Windham. Last Wednesday afternoon, Ann, a negro girl between 12 and 13 years of age, was commuted to the goal in this town, for the murder of a child about 5 years old, daughter of Mr. _____ Clark, of Pomfret. The deed was perpetrated on Tuesday evening, about dusk, while the rest of the family were absent. It seems by the confession of the negro, that the child had affronted her, while at
play, and to be revenged, she determined her death; to effect this purpose, she took a sharp knife from the buttery, and cut the child’s
throat to such a degree, that she expired in a few minutes. The negro immediately alarmed Mr. Clark, who was but a small distance from the
house, but alleged the murder against a straggler, whom she said had been in the house. This story was at first credited by the afflicted
father of the child; but from some circumstances appearing, which she had not art enough to conceal, she was suspected of being the
perpetrator of the crime, and being closely examined, she at first strongly denied it, but finally confessed the truth. She stands committed to have her trial before the superior court in March next.
