A son of the chief, after peace was restored, came to Dunstable, to revenge his father’s death, by killing Chamberlain; but not going directly to him his design was suspected by some one, and communicated to the intended victim, who kept himself upon his guard, and had a hole cut through the door of his house. Through this hole, Chamberlain one morning discovered an Indian, behind a pile of wood, with his gun pointed toward the door. Making use of his advantage, he fired upon and killed the son of Paugus. In the ballad, in which the events of Love-well’s fight are commemorated, we find some singular details of the escape of the wounded white men. Solomon Keyes, having received three wounds, said he would hide himself and die secretly, so that the Indians could not get his scalp? As he crawled upon the shore of the pond, a short distance from the battle-ground, he found a canoe, into which he rolled himself, and was drifted away by the wind. To his astonishment, he was cast ashore near Fort Ossippee, to which he crawled, and there found several of his companions, with whom he returned home. The most of those who escaped did not leave the battle-ground till near midnight. When they arrived at the fort, they expected to find refreshment, and the few men they had left in reserve. But a deserter had so frightened the men left in the fort, that they fled in dismay towards Dunstable. Fifty New Hampshire volunteers afterwards marched to the scene of action, and buried the dead. They found but three Indians, one of whom was Paugus. The remainder were supposed to have been taken away when they retreated. The pond, on the banks of which the battle was fought, has ever since received the name of Lovewell’s Pond. Some rural Homer, the author of the ballad to which we have alluded, thus pathetically concludes his narrative: ``Ah, many a wife shall rend her hair, ``And many a child cry, “Woe is me,” ``When messengers the news shall hear, ``Of Lovewell’s dear-bought victory.= ``With footsteps slow shall travellers go, ``Where Love well’s pond shines clear and bright ``And mark the place where those are laid, ``Who fell in Love well’s bloody fight.= ``Old men shall shake their heads, and say, ``Sad was the hour and terrible, ``When Lovewell, brave, ‘gainst Paugus went, ``With fifty men from Dunstable.= [Illustration: 0370] [Illustration: 0371] WINGINA [Illustration: 9371] INGINA was the first chief known to the English settlers of Virginia. The voyagers, Amidas and Barlow, sent out by Sir Walter Raleigh, in the summer of 1584, landed upon the island of Wokoken, adjacent to Virginia. They saw several of the natives, and made them presents. Wingina was at this time confined in his cabin, from wounds received in battle, and did not see the English. He had not much faith in their good intentions, and would not trust them far.
