Many settlers pulled back from the more exposed parts of the frontier. Some of the boldest fortified themselves in such places as Grand Island. Indian raids were carried out against the settlers along the Oregon rail with varying success. Among those raids one of the most suc cessful was against a portion of the trail in Nuckolls county at and near the station known as the Oak Grove Ranch. In this raid on August 7, 1864, nine people were killed and three women were taken prisoner by the Indians. One of the captured women later told the story of her capture, and part of her ac count is repeated here: "I spent the afternoon at Eu banks until about 4:oo p.m. at which time Mr. Eubanks, his wife and myself started for my home which was about one and a half miles away. We had gone about one half mile when we came to a place in the road which wound around the bluff an was called the "Narrows" be cause the road was so narrow at that place. Mr. Eubanks was barefooted and got a sliver in his loot and said he would stou and get it out and for us to walk on; he would overtake us. We had gone about fifty yards around the bluff when we stopped to wait for him. Just then we heard ter rible yells. I said I thought it was Indians so we turned and ran back until we camp in sight of Mr. Eubanks who was running to ward the house: Just as he got to the edge of the sandbar the Indians shot and killed him. His brothers that were In the house started to run up a draw and they were both killed. His sis ter started to run toward us; they tried to take her prisoner and she fought them so they stabbed her in the head and j killed her. "By this time we had got into the timber, the Indian had killed everyone at the Eubanks house and started for my fath er's house. As they passed they saw us, whirled their horse and came right to us. I had taken off my slippers and was carry ing them in my hand. The first thing they did was to snatch my hat off and my slippers out of my hand. I had a signet ring on my finger and they took it off 1 next. Then they took us by the hand ' and told us to come: they picked us up, put us on the horses and took us back to Mr. Eubank's house. On the way back we saw Mr. Eubank's sister lying be side the path a hundred yards from the house. We could see where they had stabbed her; she was not Quite dead but threw her arm over her head as we passed. In a few minutes an other Indian came riding up with this girl's scalp on a spear dripping with blood; he was yell ing like a mad man."
