There is such contemporary record for one of Brady's deeds, which took place towards the close of the Revolutionary war.
Brady's Feats.
Brady had been on a raid in the Indian country and was returning.

His party had used all their powder and had scattered, each man going towards his own home, as they had nearly reached the settlements.

Only three men were left with Brady, the four had but one charge of powder apiece, and even this had been wet in crossing a stream, though it had been carefully dried afterwards.

They had with them a squaw whom they had captured.

When not far from home they ran into a party of seven Indians, likewise returning from a raid, and carrying with them as prisoners a woman and her child.
