In 1864, Lake Shetek Massacre survivor Lavina Day Eastlick (1833-1923) would publish a chilling first-hand narrative of her fight for survival in her book titled "Thrilling Incidents of the Indian War of 1862: Being a Personal Narrative of the Outrages and Horrors Witnessed by Mrs. L. Eastlick in Minnesota." In what would eventually be known as the Lake Shetek Massacre, on August 20, 1862, about 40 Dakota Sioux men and at least one woman attacked Minnesota settlers living nearby, killing 15 and taking a dozen women and children captive. In introducing her book, Eastlick writes: "I have given merely a plain, unvarnished statement of all the facts that came under my own observation, during the dreadful massacre of the settlers in Minnesota. Mine was only a single case among hundreds of similar instances. It is only from explicit and minute accounts from the pen of the sufferers themselves, that people living at this distance from the scene of those atrocities can arrive at any just and adequate conception of the...the extremities of pain, terror and distress endured by the victims." Interestingly, Eastlick describes a paranormal encounter with a red orb that occurred right after the attack. Author Biography Minnesota pioneer Lavina Day Eastlick was born in 1833 and died 1923.
