Notes about Jonathan Brigham Ensign

He settled on a part of the Thomas Brigham homestead in Marlborough, MA. where he was tythingman, 1704; constable, 1714; moderator, 1715, and selectman in 1719, '22 and '32. He was commonly called the " Indian Warrior." One day while chopping in the woods he saw a savage preparing to take aim at him; he seized his own musket, stepped forward in full view, exclaiming as he did so, " Shoot straight, you dog." Both fired at the same moment, the Indian dropped his gun, and giving a tremendous whoop, bounded high into the air and fell dead. His bullet passed close to the ear of Jonathan, who escaped unhurt..
