In the fall of 1838, he and his brother-in-law, Capt. John Tumlinson, attempted to rescue the Putnam children who had been kidnapped by Indians from near their home in Gonzales County. By the time the group gathered, the Indians were too far in advance, and they were unable to overtake them. The children were later reunited with their parents. One was so wild, scared, and unable to speak English that it was difficult to make the trip from San Antonio back to the Pilgrim community.
