這幾天外子要我和他出去散步,我正好前陣子去小木屋參觀過。
Mr. Les Zimmerman 也說"帶妳先生來玩!我可以介紹一些歷史故事給他" 。
只是外子白天上班,他有時間去時,
Mr.Zimmerman住在半小時遠的地方,又不好叫他趕過來。
所以我帶外子去那裡在樹林裡散步,並沒有到小木屋參觀。
這小木屋會有歷史價值,
是因為印地安酋長Logang在這木屋殺死白人"屏豆"Pindall家人三女二男。
印地安酋長Logan本來是與白人有好交情不願動殺戒的人。
他父親有白人好友就叫"洛跟",故為他取名Logan。
但是他的母親和姐妹被白人殺死他才大開殺戒 。
發誓只要印地安人被殺一個。
他要回殺十個白人,為他們印地安人復仇。
他沒上大學但是在榆樹下哀悼文寫的很好。
堪比美林肯總統"蓋地玆堡"演說詞。(只少20個字。)
傑佛遜總統都讚賞他印地安酋長洛跟的哀悼文章。
哀悼文如下
我向任何白人哀懇的説,如果有饑餓的白人進入我洛根的屋內,我一定給他肉吃:如果有白人是赤身露體寒冷的來到,我一定給他衣服穿。我洛根是一個倡導和平者。在那漫長和血腥的戰爭過程中我始終不動的留在屋內。這是我對白人的愛,我的國人走過就指我說, "洛根是白人的朋友"。 我這個受傷的男人甚至想過要和你們住一起。去年春天,上校克利薩普,冷血的無端殺害所有和我洛根有關係的親人,甚至不留半個婦孺。流和我相同血液的人無一幸存。這呼喚我去復仇。我曾尋思過:我已被殺害了很多人:我已完全充滿復仇:我為我國的和平之光而欣幸。但不隱藏一種思想我的喜悅是徨恐的。洛根從不感到恐懼。我絕不轉腳逃跑求生。有誰來悼念洛根? -沒有。
Simon Girty(賽蒙哥替),是一個在賓州的神秘和傳奇人物。他是一個愛爾蘭移民的兒子,被綁架,並被印地安族人扶養大的。
洛根對白人定居處的攻擊導致了dunmore運動,1774年10月在"歡樂點"戰役之後。'賽蒙哥替"被送往去說服違抗者明歌酋長"洛根"並進行和平談判。洛根酋長拒絕,但發出了一個信息(現稱為洛根哀悼文) ,給戰勝國答摩王 。傳說還認為洛根發表了他的雄辯的演說是在一棵大榆樹下。洛根酋長繼續空襲白人定居者,直到他去世為止。
有趣的是'美而嫩"愛肯樂太太家有一幅掛圖。內為一張氾黃的1774人們向"愛肯樂"祖先買東西捨帳的記錄紙。
最後一位買家大名就是Simon Girty(賽蒙哥替)。
Logan Lament:
I appeal to any white man to say, if ever he entered Logan's cabin hungry, and he gave him not meat: if ever he came cold and naked, and he cloathed him not. During the course of the last long and bloody war Logan remained idle in his cabin, an advocate for peace. Such was my love for the whites, that my countrymen pointed as they passed, and said, 'Logan is the friend of white man.' I had even thought to have lived with you, but for the injuries of one man. Colonel Cresap, the last spring, in cold blood, and unprovoked, murdered all the relations of Logan, not even sparing my women and children. There runs not a drop of my blood in the veins of any living creature. This called on me for revenge. I have sought it: I have killed many: I have fully glutted my vengeance: for my country I rejoice at the beams of peace. But do not harbour a thought that mine is the joy of fear. Logan never felt fear. He will not turn on his heel to save his life. Who is there to mourn for Logan?—Not one.

Historical Facts Concerning The Hickory Hill Log House
This restored log strcture was dismantled and moved to it's present site from it's original location on Little Indian Creek near Route 19 South, between Morgantown and Fairmont in Monongalia County, W.Va.
The structure combines the log home of Captain Phillip Pindall and the log barn of his brother Jacob Pindall. The buildings were built by the Pindall brothers in the latter 1780's.
The three Pindall brothers, Phillip, Jacob and John were among the very first setlers to cross the mountains from maryland and settle in Monongalis County, W.Va. In the year 1773 they claimed homestead rights to 400 acres each (1200 acres total) in the area bounded by Little Indian Creek, Big Indian Creek, Flaggy Meadow Run and the Monongahela River. Each of the brothers erected a crude settler's cabin on their claims within "settlement distance" from each other (a gun shot sound apart).
In the year 1776, Phillip Pindall returned to Maryland and joined the Revolutionary army, serving in Maryland or Pennsylvania in 1781 when Indians attacked the Pindall settlement on Flaggy Meadow Run. During the course of the attack John Pindall's wife Elizabeth was murdered along with two surveyors named Crawford and Wright.
Phillip's wife Rachel, together with John Pindall and a third surveyor, managed to escape the Indians and made it to safety in Stewart's Blockhouse some three miles from the scene. Detailed accounts of the "Pindall Massscre" can be found in Wiley's "History of Mongalia Country" and Wither's "Border Warfare". When the threat of indian attacks was no longer major concern to this pioneer family, the Pindalls set about building the permanent log houses and barns in which you are now standing.
The last Indiain attack in the area took place in 1789 at Fort Statler some ten miles from the Pindall settlement.
Captain Phillip Pindall died in this house in 1804 and is buried in the Wiseman graveyard near the town of Lowesville, W.Va. jacob pindall died in 1828 and is buried in the same graveyard. The grave stones are still standing.
*************************
Facts Concerning The Construction of The Original Log Buildings
All logs used in the construction of the house and barn are of white oak. All boards used in trim, gable ends and second story floors are of poplar. The poplar trim boards (around windows and doors) and the sill and cap logs ere secured with oak pegs. The roof pole rafters are poplar and secured with oak pegs. A mud mixture was used to chink between the logs and in setting the cut stone fire places and chimmeys.
