1632

Martin Pheypo leads a party of twelve men into the Appalachians to establish a trading post and subsequently a garrison to guard the colony’s western flank. They have a Yaocomicoe brave as a guide. When they reach the Catocin, their guide refuses to go further. The others cannot understand his language, and consequently his reasons for not wanting to continue, and are forced to insist on his continuance. That evening, the guide attempts to drive off their horses to prevent them from journeying further. He is shot and killed by Mr. Scott under the mistaken assumption that he was an intruder. Having no guide, they are forced to return to Baltimore. The Blair Witch Project: A Dossier
