Though well known, the story may bear a brief repetition. In September of 1677, just two years after the first destruction of Deerfield, and the massacre at Bloody Brook, a party of Indians from Canada fell upon Hatfield, killing nine persons, wounding four and carrying away seventeen, after which Deerfield was attacked and several of its settlers were also taken into captivity. Then began the terrible march to Canada and the pawning of the captives to the French - for rum! On the 24th of October, accurate information of the captives reached Hatfield, and Benjamin Waite and Stephen Jennings, whose wife and children were of the number, started upon their work of ransom. Obtaining a commission from the Governor of Massachusetts, they proceeded under great discouragements and hardships to Canada, where, at Sorrell and Vicinity, they found all the captives, save three, who had been slain. Two children had been born, a daughter to Benjamin Waite, named Canada, and a daughter to Stephen Jennings, called Captivity. Through the aid of the French governor all were ransomed, under a promise of a payment of two hundred pounds to the Indians, and having accomplished this, the two men, in the early spring of 1678, started homeward with their redeemed families and friends. Albany was reached on the 22nd of May and a trusty messenger sent to Hatfield with a letter explaining what had happened. After five more days at Albany, the party walked twenty miles to Kinderhook, where horses and provision awaited them. At Westfield they were met by friends and wanderers and reached Hatfield amid great rejoicing. Jeremiah Waite resided in that part of Hatfield, which in 1771 became the separate town of Whately, Massachusetts. (Source: History of Whately, Massachusetts, f. 275).
