On the early frontier, Indians from the many tribes were encouraged by the British to attack American settlements. In March of 1782, Pennsylvania militiamen under Lt. Col. David Williamson murdered 90 peaceful, neutral, Christian Indians at Gnadenhutten in reprisal for these raids. These Indians were of the Delaware nation but called themselves Moravians after being converted to Christianity. In May of 1782, Colonel William Crawford led an expedition of 500 militiamen into the Ohio County with the primary purpose of destroying the towns of the Indians along the Sandusky River. The expedition was a failure. This book chronicles the events leading up to this ill fated expedition, the defeat of the militiamen and the capture of Crawford and others. The author, C. W. Butterworth, tells it like it was, with graphic descriptions of the atrocities committed by both sides and of the torture and burning of Crawford as the Indians took their revenge for the Gnadenhutten massacre. This book is part of the Historical Collection of Badgley Publishing Company and is a reproduction of the original published in 1873. All pages shown are from the original book.
