    from a visit at her father's, both on the same horse, when the Indians fired on
    them, with the intention, as it was subsequently ascertained, of killing Colvin
    and capturing Mary. Both were wounded and fell from the horse. The Indians
    then rushed up, and, although Colvin endeavored to save his wife and baby, he
    was compelled to flee. Securing aid he soon returned, but found Mary and the
    baby dead.
