Scalping the undead?

Read carefully:"On May 9, as the militiamen were being led in prayer by chaplain Jonathan Frye, a lone Abenaki warrior was spotted. Lovewell's men waited until the warrior was close and fired at him but missed. The Abenaki returned fire, killing Lovewell. Ensign Seth Wyman, Lovewell's second in command, missed the warrior with the next shot. Chaplain Frye then scalped the dead Indian." How did the lone Indian die? 84.23.155.84 (talk) 21:32, 18 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
