Excerpt from A Narrative of the Incidents Attending the Capture, Detention, and Ransom of Charles Johnston, of Botetourt County, Virginia: Who Was Made Prisoner by the Indians, on the River Ohio, in the Year 1790; Together With an Interesting Account of the Fate of His Companions, Five in Number, One of Whom Suffered at the Stake; To Which Are Added, Sketches of Indian Character and Manners

The excellence of his heart, and the correctness of his moral principles, placefhnn above all suspicion. But another objection arises, from his omission of many striking details. It shall be my object to present as minute and faithful a narrative, of the occurrences when I was captured, and while in the hands of the savages, as my memory can supply. After the lapse of so many years. I can confi dently assert, that my recollection of incidents, during a period so calamitous to me, and while my facultieswere vigorous, is sufiiciently'perfect to give them without danger of mistake. Every one, who has attained to my age, must have ascertained by experience, that the striking events of youthful life are fastened indelibly on the memoryta'nd that their impression is more perfect, and is retained with greater precision, than those circumstances which occur to us in our declining years. I en tertain no fears that my veracity will be questioned by those to whom I am known; and lappeal to others, who may read my details, whether they are distinguished by any features, which oughtfto bring upon them the frowns of incredulity.
