During the same day, and at some time in the evening, the Indians charged and killed James Knight. He was working for John Pancake and Wm. Babb, who lived on Neil's Creek, about four miles south of Cranfill Gap. This young man when killed was cutting timber for building purposes, about one half mile west of the Pancake home in Hamilton County. He was scalped.
