Lewiston, Me. Journal. < No more thrilling or romantic story existe in the early history of Maine than that of the captivity of Frances Noble, who, together with a number other unfortunates, was taken by e Indians from Swan Island, in the Kennebee river, in 1750. Her adven- tures while a prisoner read like a { chapter from a historical novel, but [they are wehl authenticated from | dJocuments in the state library here. | James Whadden, I'rances Noble's { maternal grandiather, was a captain lof the colonial army at the taking ol { Cape Breton in 1745. He owned a tract of land on Swan Island, in the Kennebec, where he lived with his |family. . One of is daughters mar: {ried " Lazarus Noble, of Portsmouth, [and the young couple hved on the island with her father. The Indians had been accustomed to vigit © Capt. Whidden for purposes of trade. Asa garrison was stationed there to, Se {eure the inhabitants from attack {time of war, no was {felt concerning the savages. One mot ning a little after daybreak two boys went out -of 'the fort and left the gate open. The Indians were on the watch, and, availing them- gelves of the opportunity, some nines ty of them slipped inside the enclos- ure. The settlers immediately dis covered that the were upon them, but there was no escape. Capt. Whidden and his wife retreated to the cellar and concealed themselves No- ble and-his hired man wet the In- dians at the head of the stairs and fired upon them, wounding one in the arm. Strange to say, the fire was not returned, but Noble, his wile, their seven children and Timothy Whidden and Mary Holmes were tak- en prisoners. The hired man and the two boys succeeded in making their escape. The captives were hurried to the river, where they were securely bound. The Indians then returned to: the gar- vison, burnt the barn and plundered {the house, cut open the feather beds, strewed the feathers about the fields and carried off all the silver and gold and provisions they could find. 1t is supposed that they omitted to burn the house because of their suspicion {hat the captain and his wife, from whom they had received many favors fn times of peace, were concealed in it. After the destruction of his pro- perty Capt. Whidden returned to his old home in Massachusetts, where he died shortly afterward. The Indians also captured an old man named Pomeroy, who was busily engaged in making shingles on an- other part of the island. Having collected their prisoners and plunger, the Indians immediately started on their long return trip to Canada, where they hoped to dispose of their prey. Yomeroy was old and feeble and unable to endure the fa- tigue of the march. On the morning of the second cay he was knocked on the head with the butt of a mus {ket and instantly killed. They were | assiduous in their care of the clald- ven, for which they expected a hand- some ransom. Abigall, ore of the | youngsters, died before the was completed, but the rest of | captives reached Canada in safety {and were variously disposed of. Mr. {Noble was sold to a Quebec baker, {and his wife to a lady of the same city as a. chambermaid. They were allowed to visit each other and were Ihot treated unkindly.

In their attempts to dispose of her the In dians one day took the child ta the house of Louis St. Auge ( arlee, a prosperous merchant of Montreal. At the time he happened to be absent on a business trip to Montreal. His wife was called into the kitchen by o of the maids to the child on the floor in the dirt and rags. Instantly "the little mite caught hold of Mme, Chanlee's gown, wrapped sl over her and burst into frors. The tender-hérted French could not vesist this compassion, and taking up th who clung about her neck, she finall soothed and quieted her. The Indian offered to sell their little captive, but Mme. Charlee declined buying, not choosing probably in the of her husband to: venture on a purchase. The Indians left the house, and slept that night on the pavement before the door. o Mme.
