I changed the cause of death from "Murdered by Indians" to "Killed by Indians". "Murder" implies an unlawful act, and during war, killing the enemy is not unlawful. The fact that non-combatants were sometimes involved does not really mitigate this, as this applied to both sides about equally. Q 19:46, 23 April 2009 (EDT)
