"This Revolutionary War Veteran and homesteader was the last man killed by Indians in Knox County, Tennessee, on the night of May 25, 1795, investigating a noise in his barn, he was ambushed and slain. The Indians later attempted to force entry into the house: his wife fired on and wounded two, whereat the party left, having first scalped and mutilated Mann's body and fired outbuildings."
George Mann hid in a cavern called "Campbell's Cave." This is where the Indians found him, drug him out, and murdered him.
