After the killings, the Indians destroyed everything they could. When the Oregon Volunteers arrived they partially rebuilt the main Mission House, and changed the name to Fort Waters. After they left, the Indians in the area once again destroyed all structures. Luckily for archaeologists, fires that had been set by the Cayuse caused the Mission House roof to fall on the foundations, preserving them.
