254 Bladud was a legendary king of the Britons as recounted by Geoffrey of Monmouth. He was the son of King Rud Hud Hudibras. He ruled for twenty years in which time he built Kaerbadum (Bath) and the many hot baths in that city. This was because he was a leper and a hot bath cured him. He dedicated the city to the Greek goddess Minerva and lit undying fires in honor of her. During his reign, he also encouraged the practice of necromancy, or divination through the spirits of the dead. Through this practice, he is said to have contructed wings for himself and tried to fly to the temple of Apollo in Trinovantum (London) but was killed when he hit a wall. He was succeeded by his son, Leir.

HISTORY OF MONTAGUE COUNTY BY MRS W, R, POTTER

babies. But the ringing laughter of the children at
play in the sunshine dispels their momentary fear,
and they take up the thread of conversation anew.
The men in the front yard talked of everyday af-
fairs, and gave an occasional word of warning to
the newcomers about the Indians.

The day being clear and sunshiny, the entire com-
pany decided to go over to the new Willingham and
Wainscot place, as they expressed it, just to pass
the time. The following were in the number : Cash
McDonald and family, Daniel Wainscot and family,
Bob Wainscot and family, John Willingham and
family, Fine McFarland, Ike Wainscot, Jack Kil-
gore and family.

Cash McDonald drove his wagon, with a yoke of
steers hitched to it, and a number of the women
and children rode with him, the others walking leis-
urely along by its side, as steers do not travel fast.
Bob Wainscot and Jack Kilgore were a little in ad-
vance of the wagon. When they reached a point of
timber, about a quarter of a mile from the new
house, without a word of warning seven Indians
sprang out from the woods upon them, uttering un-
earthly yells as they came. Seeing their approach
to the house was cut off by the Indians the men
turned to run back to the wagon. Just after they
reached it both men were slain by the Indians. By
this time the women and children had scattered like
frightened birds, some going in one direction and
some in another. Contrary to their custom, the In-
dians did not take time to scalp their victims, but
turned their attention to the rest of the party. All
the members of the company managed to reach the
home of John Wainscot in safety, with the excep-
tion of Cash McDonald and Mrs. Bob "Wainscot. Mr.
McDonald held in his arms his two-year-old daugh-
ter, Mary (now Mrs. Andy Jackson of Bowie). He
was shot in the arm with an arrow, but fortunately
little Mary was unhurt. Notwithstanding this, he
walked twelve miles, shunning the road, for fear of
Indians, still carrying the child in his arms, reach-
ing Bill Freeman's house in the night. They pulled
the arrow from his arm, which had remained there
all of these hours, and was very painful. Mrs. Bob
Wainscot also had a thrilling experience. In the
confusion following the attack by the Indians she
became separated from her husband. Looking back,
she saw an Indian shoot her husband, who fell with
their four-year-old daughter in his arms. She sup-
posed both were killed, but the Indians passed on
and they made their way to safety. She proceeded
on her way, running with her six-weeks-old baby
in her arms. (Now Mrs. Huse Wainscot of Denver.)
She came upon Mr. Cash McDonald, who, as has al-
ready been told, had his little daughter with him.
The child was sick, and crying aloud for her mother.
They could not quiet her by any means, so Mr. Mc-
Donald said, "If Mary continues to cry this way she 
may attract the Indians, and they will come and
kill us all. It is hard for you to start out through
the woods alone, but it may be the means of saving
your life and that of your baby. ' ' It was a fearful
moment, but the half distracted woman decided to
take his advice and started through the woods alone.
Having just come into the neighborhood the day be-
fore she was wholly unacquainted with the coun-
try. Her one thought was to travel in the direction
of the old home she had left. On and on the terror
stricken woman went. She traveled all the after-
noon and that night over stones and hollows, through
briars and thickets ; the next day found her between
Bradin's Bluff and Clear Creek, having traveled in
her wanderings about thirty miles. In all this time
she had eaten but two wild plums. About 12 o 'clock
that day, hungry and almost exhausted, she paused
to rest for a short time near a hollow. In the begin-
ning of her flight she had lost her sunbonnet. Her
hair had become loosened and fell about her face in
such a manner that her features could not be dis-
cerned without close scrutiny. A band of white men,
who had heard of the raid and started out to aid in
the capture of the Indians, came upon Mrs. Wain-
scot quite suddenly. Seeing her long black hair fall-
ing in Indian fashion about her face they mistook
her for an Indian squaw and paused an instant, be-
fore approaching, not knowing what might await
them. She caught a glimpse of the men, and be-
lieving them to be Indians, she ran with her baby
clasped to her breast. She hid in a washed out place
in the hillside. The men found her there, and she
was overjoyed to learn they were white men. She
poured out her story to them between sobs. One of
the men took her behind him on his horse, while an-
other carried the baby in his arms. They took her
to the home of Mr. John Wainscot, where to her
great joy she found her husband and little daugh-
ter.

266 Brutus Greenshield (Welsh: Bryttys darian las) was a legendary king of the Britons as accounted by Geoffrey of Monmouth. He was the son of King Ebraucus. Brutus, surnamed Greenshield, was the eldest of twenty sons and the only remaining son of Ebraucus in Britain at the time of his death. All Ebraucus's other sons were in Germany establishing a new kingdom there. He reigned for twelve years after his father's death and was succeeded by his son, Leil. (From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia) Brutus Greenshield (I6736)
 
267 Brutus of Troy, also of Britain (Welsh: Bryttys), was the legendary founding king of Britain and great grandson of Aeneas, according to Geoffrey of Monmouth. Exiled from Italy for the accidental killing of his natural father Silvius, Brutus liberated a group of Trojans living in slavery in Greece and led them forth, received a vision during this wandering that he would found a kingdom in a land inhabited by giants, then after numerous battles in the region of the city of Tours in Gaul, he settled in Britain with the aid of his fellow Trojan Corineus, where they slew the giants living in that island. He is said to have founded the city Troia Nova, later named London. The Celtic tribe that dwelt in the area of London was called the Trinovantes, and one early name of the city named it after them. He created a code of laws for his people before his death. He reigned 23 years. By Ignoge he had three sons Locrinus, Kamber, and Albanactus whom on Brutus's death divided the island between them. Geoffrey fixes the time of his death with the statement that Eli was priest in Judea and the Ark of the Covenant was captured by the Philistines, the sons of Hector reigned in Troy, and Aeneas Silvius was ruling Alba Longa in Italy. Although the Historia Britonum, from which Geoffrey drew the core of this story, claims Britain was named after Brutus, this personage has no basis in actual fact, and is generally considered a medieval fiction created to provide a distinguished genealogy for one or more Welsh royal families. The Historia Britonum not only describes Brutus as a descendent of Troy but also places him in the Trojan genealogy, which he probably created himself to relate Troy to the Christian God. Brutus became part of the Matter of Britain, a pseudo-historical account of the events of that island, which was widely accepted as historical fact until the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, when reliable historical records and inscriptions were available and studied by scholars who gradually disproved much of it but is still occasionally cited in popular or ceremonial accounts in contemporary England. duplicate line Brutus the Dardanian King of Britons son of Silvius Aeneas the Dardarian. 
He is speculated to have lived approximatedly 1100 BCE and reigned for 23 years in Britain.
(From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)

According to Geoffrey of Monmouth's History of the Kings of Britain (1136), he led the descendants of the Trojans who fled with Antenor after the Trojan War and settled on the coasts of the Tyrrhenian Sea. After Brutus, a descendant of the Trojan prince Aeneas, had been exiled from Italy and liberated the enslaved Trojans in Greece, he encountered Corineus and his people, who joined him in his travels. In Gaul, Corineus provoked a war with Goffarius Pictus, king of Aquitania, by hunting in his forests without permission, and killed thousands single-handedly with his battle-axe. After defeating Goffarius, the Trojans crossed to the island of Albion, which Brutus renamed Britain after himself. Corineus settled in Cornwall, which was then inhabited by giants. Brutus and his army killed most of them, but their leader, Gogmagog, was kept alive for a wrestling match with Corineus. The fight took place near Plymouth, and Corineus killed him by throwing him over a cliff.
