"Thomas came to his mother's house on the first day of July 1811 but she was not around. He was intoxicated, where he found his brother John, with whom he immediately commenced a quarrel on their old subjects of difference. John's anger became desperate. He caught Thomas by the hair of his head, and dragged him out of the door, and there killed him, by a blow which he gave him on the head with his tomahawk. John is tried and acquitted by the chiefs."
