THE. -.Chapter From Book on "Moravians in North Car . olina," Written in 1857 by Rev. Levin f T. Reichcl, of Salem. " ' TBe 'favorable' Jrofipects'oT tfie cdi ony were for several years disturb', by the breaking out of the'lndian frat generally called the Old French War. This commenced In the Northern co) nle In 1755, and also affected the Brethren, ten Brethren and Slstprs being murdered on the Mahoney, No vember 2Uh, 1773. Gradually It spread more to the South. In 175G It was found cxpedetpt to fortify the new set tlement by surrounding It with pali sades. whence.it was commonly called the Dutch; Fort. The , mill was also fortified In a similar manner. These fortifications, rude nd Imperfect as they 116 olilt wens soon became very important for the whole neighborhood. Many fugitives, e'n , from distant parts of Virginia, there found a place of refuge and a temporary home, and at-the same time an opportunity to hear' the word of eternal, lire. Some of these afterwards entered into a more close connection with the Breth ren. As yet there waa'no real danger. Occasionally detached companies of Cherokee warriors; also several bodies of Creek and Catawba Indians, passed through he settlement, or encamped near the mill. Receiving plenty to eat,, they behaved very well and gave no cause for complaint, Sometimes they were accompanied by British officers, who paid for them. At other times, coming alone, with a passport of the English government, they were freely received and hospitably entertained (the government of North Carolina afterwards remunerating the Moravi ans.) In consequence, Bethabara be came a noted place among the Indians, as the "Dutch Fort, where there are good people and much bread." Br. Ettweln. who had come frqm Bethle hem on a visit In 1758 tcjk an especial interest in them, and asked a companyi of sixty warriors whether they would like it if a companv ,f our young pea pie should come to their country to try to learn their language; to which they replied that they would be proud of It, It weald ge a very gcoi thing.1 In 1737,-ar.d 1758 more than five hun dred Indians passed through the set tlement at various times. With Br. Bttwein. Br. Jacob Rogers arrived I" Bethabara .in July. 175S, having been appointed the first Eng lish minister of Dobbs Pariah. He was a deacon of the Episcopal church, had come to this country In 1752, and served as Moravian minls;r in Phil adelphia and New York, and in Wach ovia till 1702 when ho returned to England. In consequence 61 the war, a famine prevailed in North Carolina and th adjacent districts of: Virginia , ami many people resorted to Bethabara (some even coming a distance of one hundred miles to purchase ilii:r). Tin Brethren, having, with, the assistance of those who had round a refuge with them, cleared an additional sixty acre? of land, were thereby enabled to sup ply them nt the usual price; while, at the same lime, they omitted no oppor tunity to point out to Uicm tho neces sity of providing for the wants of their fouls, uu.l seeking to obtain the bread of life. Some of these refugees, who had become concerned for the salva tion of their souls under the preaching of the goBpel, appl'cd for permission to join the church. To accommodate them, as well as others of tho oldei settlers, who preferred . their own housekeeping to 'the general family economy, the. establishment of a new settlement was reaolved upon. With a view to find a good location, IJv. Spangenberg, who had arrived on an official visitation, June 3, 1759,, with several others, went to the fco-calltd "Valuut Bottom," about three miles northwest of , Bethabara, ami there, on the 12th of June, selected a spot on which the settlement was to be formed. Thirty town lots and to tiactn of bottom land were at otic surveyed and marked! off by Bro. Reu--tcfi' an well as a number of acres C ( upland for gardens and orchards, and about two thousand acres set opart for the use of the congregation, to which the name of Bethanla was giv en. . .. 3 .... . ft aw resn'vM that eight married conpleg ot Bethabara should form nucleus of this new settlement, and should be supported for a year, until their houses could be built aud acme laud brought into cultivation. The names of these first settlers, who built the lower paru of the village, were Gottfrlfd Crabs, Ualthasar Hege. Charles Ophis. Christopher Schmidt. John ! Beroth, Adam Kramer, Michael Ranko. Henry Bieffel. They began felliug trees ob July 10th, on the 15th (he lots were dis tributed by lot. and on the IStb Dr. Grabs with bis wife occupied the first cabin erected there: the dally word on that day being. I will fear no evil. tot, thou art with me, Ps. xxlll.. which proved a word of much comfort to them amidst tht horrors cf a cruel war, and the consequent necessity of being on the alert both day and night. Besides these Brethren, eight neigh bors .were allowed fcr th present to occupy a number of lots In the upper part of the new settlement. Thte were Martin House r. and his two mar ried sons, George and Michael Hourer; Hfnry Spoenhauer. John Strnp. Philip Shaus, Frederick Shorn, a widower. Sd his son. Henry Shore. In ,17"M. Br. Bishop moved to fleth 0ia. to keep the daily meetings. AJxmt the (im when the new settle-uK-nt m commeiK'M and till w.n bus tle and activity Id (he fclacg Wnffinf Bottom, an alarnilng sickness" broke Out. in Bethabara, which proved fatal lit many cuees.. In quick succession wcre allcd to their eternal home, Sj Mary Rogers, wife of the English min ister; Sr. Marial C. Seltlet, and hr husbund, Christ. Gottfried Seldi, the German minister, only forty-one years old; Hans .Martin Kalberlabn, the doc tor; and five other slugle brethren and cno married Sister mostly after a sickness- of only three or four days. Fourteen more wero very Iff, expecting' their departure also, and twenty had a less f.eriuus attack of the same fe ver. There were but nineteen whi entirely escaped this ' epidemic. As their physician bad been one of the flrBt who departed, Br, Spangenberg became not only . the spiritual but the medical adviser of his brethren. In Br. Seldti's atead, John Ettewin. who had returned to . Pennsylvania, was recalled to Wachovia. Accompa nied by his wife, they accomplished the long and tedious journey on horse back, During the trip, Br. Etteweln suffered much from a severe attack of fever. For the space of nine days he was compelled daily to lie upon the ground five or six hours, losing all consciousness from the severity "of the fever. Sr. Spangenberg was also sick for several months, which obliged hei husband lo remain longer than ho had Intended. This was very for.tunate. as he proved the very man to advist and direct his Brethren In the real difficulties and dangers of the Indian War, which recommenced In October, 1759. . ;.'v ...-.-.': . The Cherokees and Creeks havipg declared war against all white people and murdered seven persons near Fort Loudon, the North Carollua militia was ordered to assemble in Salisbury, In November, 1759. The Brethren be ing exempt from military service, re mained on their land, and Dr. Losch received a commission as captain of the "Dutch Fort" and governor of the watches in Bethabara and Bethanla. Almost dally, either Br. Spangenberg or Br. Etteweln, accompanied by sonu Brethren, went to Bethanla, one going and remaining there, the others re turning. "On one occasion," Br. Ette- wein relates (probably In March 17G0), "when- early In the mornlnc the tracks of the Indians had been ob served, the accompanying Brethren were rather fearful, because we rode generally quite slowly, and were talk ing among themselves how they mfgbl make Siiangenberg ride faster. Whet they canto. to Xlicidenso woods, where tho most danger; was to bo apprehend ed Spangenberg said, "You don.'t kno how fo ride; let; me lead. Snyhif: which, he set off at full speed, nevei slopping till tlrey came to Bethanla There Spangenberg- remained, whilst .ic returned to Bethabara. but wa: treated with lees ceremony. 'It is no. vet safe,' my companions said-; "w iiiiist ride as fast as we can; Spangen berg has also done so. An J. t hus wr were racing day after day." It was subsequently proved that, this prccau uiu, u.- m-n hs uic oruers ol nr. siun- Henbcrg to have the church bell rung every morning nt dawn of day, was lot needkss; Often in the morning the traces of Indians were found quit near the houses, and Ii was afterwards ascertained, through some who had been prisoners among the Indians, that one hundred and fifty of their war nors had encamped for nearly six weeks about six miles from Bethanla whilst a smaller' camp was only Hire lines distaut. Several times thr vere on the point of attacking tl Fort of the Dutch, but when the)' came near tliey heard the big bell, a slgr nat they had been discovered'. Th design of taking prisoners btween thr ild ami new town had also been unsuc cessful, ."for," as they expressed it "the Diitchers had big, fat horses, and rode like the devil." Thus under the kind providence of God, no assault was made upon either of the two set tlements; but still a strict watch was kept by day and night, the new bury-lug-ground, which aws cleared In De cember. 1757 (being situated on the top of a very high hilll proving a verj convenient place for this purpose. ' During this time, a man wounded bi I the Indians arrived in Bethabara, with two arrows still in his body. He had started out, accompanied by two oth ers to obtain provisions from some ol '.lie' neighbors, but suddenly they found themselves surrounded by Iii Indiaus, who, after discharging their guns without effect, attacked them with bows and arrows. His two companions were killed upon the spot; he himself, however, escaped, and. though wounded, reached and forded :'te Yadkin river, but, meeting Indians on the opposite side, recrossed, the stieam, and, after losing his way. and wandering about twenty-four hours in the woods, he arrived at the Dutch Fort, whre Br Lash extracted the arrows, one of which had nearly pierc r:d him through. ' - ,: "A Baptist preacher. John Thoma. was killed near Abbott's Creek by the Indians. In a short space of time no less than fifteen persons wera murder ed in Uie neighborhood. ; A fall of snow In March camwd the enemy finally to retire, whereby, quiet was restored, o that the blessed sea son for commemorating the Saviour's sufferings, death and resurrection proved a time of rich spiritual enjoy ment. On Eaeter Sunday a company of Orptige Cnnnty riflemen, sixty or suns, arrived, and requested Br. Span genbarg, as. the German preaching wna Just closed t preach again for them, in, tho v English ; language, which request he cheerfully complied With, selecting Acts ii. 3G for hlrt text.
