Jackson Street Harltngen, Texas. New Finds Recall Indian Massacres Of Early Texas PECOS, March 10. --W)-- Old timers around Monahans, Texas, are being called on again to relate tales of 50 or more years ago as shifting sands reveal stark memen- tooes of those former days in the wild west. The last Indian massacre in Texas, of Willow Springs, has been the subject of much speculation lately as the sands have blown away and left a heap of grim relics. Just 50 years ago a band of Pennsylvanians en route from the American region of California crawled down the eastern slopes of the Rockies by wagon train and into the sand dunes north of Mona- bans.

The little caravan was led by three men who had helped make the history of California's gold fields from 1849. They were John sutter, Jim Marshall and Sam Brandon. The wagon train crossed the Pecos river going on to the camp site at Willow Springs. After crossing the river it slowly passed out of sight in the low hills and was never seen again. There are lew facts available connected with this frontier tragedy of 1833, because the annihilation was complete.

None escaped that Indian slaughter to relate the tale. However, there are many mute witnesses to the raid and as the dunes shift back and forth they uncover wagon irons, pots, and other I pieces of camp equipment that withstand the erosion of sand, wind and water. The actual massacre was probably like so many others of that day, with the difference that men had escaped before to recount their experience. There Is no way of knowing how and when the Indians attacked, but Monahans people and sightseers searching for the relics declare they find pots in proximity to burnt sand and charred wood. This leads to the theory" that the pioneer were attacked either at supper or breakfast.

Also, judging: from the number of flint arrow heads still to be found in the vicinity those old Bold hunters and their comrades put up a good fight. Willow Springs is treasure spot for people interested in pioneer and Indian relics. When the wind blows and the sands shift to leave Willow again above the ground, arrowheads, spearheads, matetes, beads and bones are there to be picked up. But an hour, or a day, or a month later those restless white sands close back. If prohibition Is repealed, it will only be a few years until the pie will again restore it.
