Septr. 18th Miss Polly Park: "The Sniffen family always said that Mary was thrown by her horse in consequence of the fire, and afterwards killed by a bayonet wound in the head and robbed. Her pockets were carried by one of the party on the point of his bayonet and exhibited as the property of a tory spy. Isaac Merritt examined the wound in the head which caused Mary's death, and always declared it must have been made by a bayonet. Mrs. Sally Randall can tell all the particulars - also Mr. Samuel Lyon who is upwards of 80 and about five years older than David Brown.
