Boone continued a resident of Kentucky, until he fancied it too populous
for his comfort; when he removed with his family to Missouri; where he
spent much of his time in fishing and hunting, and where he finally died
at an advanced age. From thence his remains were conveyed to Frankfort,
the capital of Kentucky, where they now repose; and where a rough slab,
with a few half intelligible characters thereon, points out to the
curious stranger the last earthly resting place of the noblest, the most
daring, and famous hunter and pioneer the world has ever produced.
The fate of little Rosetta Millbanks, the captive, is unknown.
Girty, notwithstanding his outrageous crimes against humanity, continued
to live among the Indians for a great number of years, the inveterate
and barbarous foe of his race. In the celebrated battle of the Thames,
a desperate white man led on a band of savages, who fought with great
fury, but were at length overpowered and their leader cut to pieces by
Colonel Johnson's mounted men. The mangled corse of this leader was
afterwards recognized as the notorious and once dreaded Simon Girty.
[Footnote 25: This was found to contain a deed of two hundred acres of
the best land in Kentucky. A historical fact.]
