Akan tetapi  mereka telah diserang oleh penduduk tempatan. Tiga orang orang Amerika dan  setengah dozen buruh telah dibunuh dan  rumah mereka telah dibakar. Pelombong yang lain berpindah untuk  sementara ke Bagan Terendah, sebelum meneruskan usaha melombong di Kuala Langat."// ([[https://www.blogger.com/profile/05591479116173290567|Andin Salleh @ Mohd Salleh Lamry]], July 18, 2013: {{ :laman:jalan_ketiga_pekan_rekoh_yang_sudah_lenyap.pdf ||}}[[http://darikajang.blogspot.com/2013/07/pekan-rekoh-yang-sudah-lenyap.html|"Pekan Rekoh yang sudah lenyap"]]). |

|   |  | 
|   | //"Pada akhir 1840an kira-kira sedozen orang putih Amerika bersama pengikutnya seramai 60 orang hitam (hamba Habsyi) datang ke Rekoh* (sekarang Reko berdekatan Kg. Sungai Tangkas -  UKM Bangi) iaitu 6 batu dari sempadan Selangor - Sg. Ujong. Mereka memulakan operasi perlombongan yang berjaya di Rekoh. Bagaimanapun mereka tidak meminta izin dan berunding dengan Tok Perkasa (Tok Pawang Besar) yang kemudiannya mengadu hal tersebut pada Tok Bandar Lili (Pembesar Kajang) mengenai pelanggaran hak istimewanya (sebagai pembuka lombong) dan sikap kurang ajar pendatang asing membuka lombong tanpa kebenarannya. Tok Bandar Kajang bersimpati dengan beliau dengan itu beliau berpakat dan mengarahkan empat atau lima "orang Tambusai" membuat amuk. Serangan nekad itu berlaku pada waktu malam. Orang - orang Tambusai membakar rumah kongsi pelombong Amerika  dan menikam apabila mereka keluar untuk cuba menyelamatkan diri. Orang - orang Tambusai berhasil membunuh tiga orang putih Amerika dan enam atau tujuh daripada kuli orang hitam mereka juga dibunuh. Yang terselamat melarikan diri dan berlindung seketika di Bagan Terendan dekat Pasangan, dan kemudiannya akhir mereka melarikan diri ke hilir ke Kuala Langat. \\ | 
|   | \\ | 
|   | * Rekoh sebuah pekan perlombongan dibuka orang Melayu yang punya pekan, perkampungan, balai polis, hospital dan juga punya pengkalan yang kemudian lenyap dari sejarah, terutama apabila kuasa ekonomi perlombongan Melayu musnah apabila tamatnya Perang Saudara Selangor dan kemasukan British Selangor pada 1874. Dalam banyak catatan juga di eja sebagai Reko, Recko, Rakoh, nama tempat ini juga wujud di Sumatera Barat. \\ | 
|   | \\ | 
|   | * Orang Tambusai - adalah gelaran bagi pengikut Tuanku Tambusai yang berhijrah ke Sg. Ujong dan Semenanjung daripada daerah Rokan Hulu, Riau Sumatera. Keturunan Tambusai di Hulu Langat masih menetap di sekitar Kampung Jenderam, Sg. Merab dan Kampung Bangi. \\ | 
|   | \\ | 
|   | - Kisah ini punya dua versi berlainan- satu lagi adalah versi Raja Berayun mengarahkan ratusan pengikut membuat amuk pada 1850an. Sumber ini diterjemahkan dan disusun semula daripada buku Selangor Journal & Sutan Puasa Founder Of Kuala Lumpur. Catatan ajaizainal."// |

Somewhere about the year 1855 a party of twelve Americans and 60 Orang Hitam (negroes) sailed up the Langat river, in Selangor, took possession of the village of Reko, and began mining at a place called Sungei Tangkas. They neglected, however, to obtain the permission of the district chief, with the result that the Malays launched a night attack, killed three Americans and six or seven negroes, and set fire to the wooden house in which they were living. The survivors fled downstream and made a fresh settlement near Passangan, but after a short stay they left the Langat river and were never heard of again."// (The Straits Budget, 7 February 1935, Page 6: {{ :akhbar:straitsbudget19350207-1-2-29.pdf ||}} [[https://eresources.nlb.gov.sg/newspapers/digitised/article/straitsbudget19350207-1.2.29|"AMERICANS AT REKO"]]). |   * //"Looking through the Selangor Journal the other day, I came upon what is perhaps the most extraordinary episode in the history of European penetration of Malaya.
