In 1722, when she was about to give birth to her third son William, fearing the Indians, she made a journey to Sudbury, for safety during that critical period, and when her little son was only 2 weeks old, she rode home on horseback, a distance of nearly 50 miles in one day, and carried her infant son in her arms, although the greatest part of the distance of the road, such as it was, passed through an entire wilderness!
