[407] Cornelius Van Vorst had a slave known as “Half Indian Jack,” who died at Harsimus, February 2, 1831, at the age of 102 years. Winfield, _History of the County of Hudson, New Jersey_, p. 434. _The New York Gazette_, June 24, July 8, July 15, July 29, August 12, and August 26, advertises a runaway Indian slave, and a second slave, half Indian and half negro, from Monmouth County, New Jersey. _The American Weekly Mercury_, October 24, October 31, and November 7, 1734, advertises a runaway slave, half Indian and half negro, from Perth Amboy, New Jersey. [408] The Yoamaco Indians of that section had been so preyed upon by the “Susquahannocks” that they had abandoned their country. Oldmixon, _The British Empire in America_, etc., i, p. 189. [409] Lawson, _A New Voyage to Carolina_, etc., p. 194, states that the Indians of the Carolina country refused to sell their children, though they would sell anything else they possessed for wampum. For precedents when the English sold white captives in war, see Trowbridge, _A History of Ancient Maritime Interests in New Haven_, p. 47; Lecky, _A History of England in the Eighteenth Century_, ii, p. 189. [410] Quoted in Bannister, _British Colonization and Colored Tribes_, pp. 49–54. [411] _William and Mary College Quarterly_, vi, p. 214. [412] _The Narrative of Bacon’s Rebellion_, in Winder Papers, Virginia State Library, reprinted in _Virginia Magazine of History_, iv, 1896–1897, p. 140, tells of forty-five Indian captives taken. “The plunder and captives estimated noe lesse than 6 or 700, the goodes being three horse loades.” [413] _Calendar of State Papers_, colonial series, x, p. 165. Later all but five were restored to the queen by Ingram, one of Bacon’s officers. [414] Rivers, _A Sketch of the History of South Carolina_, etc., p. 106.

[417] Religious hatred and race hatred, as well as the desire for personal gain, dictated Moore’s action. Note that the constant enmity of the Spanish and English Indians, and their raids upon each other, gave him excellent opportunity to accomplish his purpose. [418] Hewat, _op. cit._, i, p. 157.
