Linda, maybe, but I lean towards "no." Dewitt was born in 1837 so he would have been 27 or 28 at the time of the executions. I have the book and just read the preface and description of the executions. There is no mention of his being an eyewitness. Wouldn't he have most likely mentioned it had he actually been there?
