[380] Florida. Tallahassee, August 25 - More murders. On Sunday evening last an
attack was made by Indians on the family of a Mr. Baker residing in Madison
County near the Oscilla (sic), about fifteen miles east of Monticello. The
family were at supper at the time: Mrs. Baker was killed by the first rifle
discharged: Mr. Baker at the time caught up his two grand children, one under
each arm, and endeavored to make his escape, but was shot in the yard, and one
of the children killed by the same ball passing through both - the other child
was found next morning asleep between the dead bodies of father and sister, by
a party from Monticello. A young lady, daughter of Mr. B. was wounded, but
made her escape to a fort about a mile distant. A young man was also wounded.
The house was plundered and burnt.

[381] Early on Monday morning the troops, under major Taylor, were in active pursuit
of the Indians, supposed to number 40 or 50. Capt. Rowles' company proceeded
to Econfenee (sic), about 25 miles south, to lie in ambush, while capt.
Newsom's company took the trail near the scene of the murders, under the
expectation of overtaking the enemy. There is some prospect of success by
this arrangement.
