History of Perry County, Pennsylvania Including Descriptions of Indians and Pioneer Life from the Time of Earliest Settlement, Sketches of Its Noted Men and Women and Many Professional Men By Harry Harrison Hain
Pg 116...
     Let me stop here for a second while the Author trashes this "renegade Indian".
 He more or less says he's an enemy to the Indians, even though in his own words
 he admits that the image on Girty's rock is of an Indian, that his friend and
 fellow renegade Alexander McKee, was part Indian. And that pg. 117 bellow
 The "Great Council of all the north-western tribes convened on the Maumee
he was the only White man admitted", further he goes on to call him one of
 the "most desperate degenerate character in history', but in his own words
describes his daring escapes and the fact that he was one of thee most
capable people in Indian country. And on page 114 below where he saves a
18 year-old boys life, I guess that makes him a coward. Maybe just the fact that
 when he was a boy he watched as the providential authorities burn down his house,
Da, don't you think .
