Abstract:
This article by the late Chief Justice, was first published in the \"North Carolina Booklet,\" July, 1902. Many reasons were assigned as to why bloody outbreak of Indians occurred in 1711 including, the steady encroachment of whites on hunting grounds, conflicts between whites themselves, or instigation by outside parties. The Indians could muster quite a number of men and were lead mostly by the Tuscaroras on the 22nd of September.
