Excerpt from Some Early Recollections, Vol. 1

The fact is that, following the battle and before the sur render of the fort, Major Butler manifested anxiety for the safety of the inmates and was at pains to send word to the fort to destroy all liquor, that otherwise he would be unable to control the Indians. This advice was heeded and Major Butler afforded the inmates such protection that not one of them was harmed, though many outside the fort were slain. The untrue report was incorporated in some of the histories of the Revolutionary far, and is, to some extent, perhaps to a considerable extent, believed at the present day.
