Ghost of Queen Esther

A military force of two-hundred men under the command of Colonel Thomas Hartley was created and started up the Susquehanna River to Tioga Point, finally reaching the hilly area of Queen Esther.

Queen Esther was then lynched by a nearby oak tree and dismembered before being thrown into the pond with the murdered villagers.

News of her warriors' defeat quickly reached Queen Esther who attempted to flee with the women and children of her village into the surrounding forests in hopes of escaping to the Chemung River.
