rk;  William  Pewit,  of  Texas,  and  John 
Dorsey,  of  Missouri.  At  the  time  of  the  massacre 
Dr.  Lincoln  had  in  his  possession  $50,000  in 
silver,  and  between  $20,000  and  $30,000  in  gold, 
belonging  to  the  ferry  company,  which  it  ap- 
pears has  fallen  into  the  hands  of  the  Indians.

The  three  Americans  who  escaped  in  the 
manner  described  were  named  William  Carr, 
Joseph  A.  Anderson  and  Marcus  L.  Webster. 
The  above  statements  were  taken  from  deposi- 
tions made  by  them  before  the  Alcalde  of  Los 
Angeles,  which  were  forwarded  to  the  governor 
in  the  manner  aforesaid.  The  testimony  goes 
on  to  say  that  the  Indians  had  declared  to  the 
Mexicans  that  their  tribe  was  at  war  with  the 
Americans;  that  they  did  not  intend  to  suffer 
Americans  at  the  ferry ; that  they  want  to  fight 
with  the  Americans.  These  Indians  have  since 
pursued  two  Americans,  who  are  now  at  Los 
Angeles,  after  having  succeeded  in  robbing 
them  of  everything  they  had.
