In 1884, 180 years after she was slain on the march to Canada following the attack on Deerfield, Massachusetts, on February 29, 1704, a monument was dedicated to Mrs. Eunice Williams, wife of the town’s minister, Reverend John Williams. The address at the dedication of the monument was given by Reverend Moors of Greenfield, Massachusetts. He recounted Mrs. Williams’ ancestry, discussed warfare from the 15th through 19th centuries, and concluded that the 19th century had done more and better things for humanity than all the previous Christian centuries combined.
