LAWRENCEBURGH. SATURDAY, SEPT. 6, 1828.
The report which reached here last week of Governor Ray's decease, we -ore enabled to say was not founded in in truth. His Excellency, at our latest accounts, was fast recovering his health, though still very weak from the severejiess of the fever, with which he was attacked.
Who is elected Lieut. Governor? nnd
From the Ariel. MOSES MARSHALL. The death of this venerable old man, at the age of eighty-six, occurred about two weeks ago, in Solebury township, Bucks county, Pa. We notice it for the purpose of relating some interesting facts connected with the early his.ory of the state, not generally known. Moses iMarshall was the son of Edward .Marshall, who, in 1738, performed what is generally known as the great Indian walk. I have heard the son relate, within the last two years, many particulars of that unjust proceeding. The two sons of William Penn being left proprietors of Pennsylvania at the death of their
father; and perceiving that the popula
fame unrighteous spirit that induced; them to defraud the Indians, successfully refused to award to Marshall any of the promised compensation. He was summoned to Philadelphia, was there sworn, and all the facts relating to the walk in his knowledge, written down and sent to England, and himself cautioned to say ashttle about it as possible. This unjust transaction was the cause of a bloody Indian war, during which many families upon the frontiers were butchered; and it was with great diffi
culty that the business was a last peace
