WILLIAMSON'S EXPEDITION, (a.)
[The causes which led to the expedition of the Washington
militia against the Moravian Indians on the Muskingum, were
the frequent murderous marauds by either these or their savage
allies whom they harbored. History has frequently repeated
the story of Gnadenhiitten, where the innocent suffers for the
guilty. It is not our purpose to extenuate or censure the
Pioneers of Western Pennsylvania, who in their efforts to se-
cure peaceful homes, found the necessity to exterminate the
red man prowling on the frontiers. The list of men who were
upon the expedition is far from complete, as there were at least
a force of one hundred and sixty men under the lead of the
brave Williamson.]

THE WESTMORELAND RESOLVES, (a.)
[The Records of the "Committee of Inspection" for the
County of Westmoreland are not to our knowledge in existence,
having propably been destroyed in the Burning of Hannastown,
in July, 1782. These patriotic Resolves, however, have been
preserved owing to the fact that they appeared in the Philadel-
phia newspapers of the day, as the sentiment of the brave and
undaunted frontiersmen in Western Pennsylvania.]
At a general meeting of the inhabitants of the County of
Westmoreland, held at Hanna's Town the 16th day of May,
1775, for taki: :: lUto consideration the very alarming situation
of this Country, occasioned by the dispute with Great Britain:
Resolved unanimously, That the Parliament of Great Britain,
by several late Acts, have declared the inhabitants of the
Massachusetts-Bay to be in rebellion, and the Ministry, by
endeavoring to enforce those Acts, have attempted to reduce
the said inhabitants to a more wretched state of slavery than
ever before existed in any state or county. Not content with
violating their constitutional and chartered privileges, they
would strip them of the rights of humanity, exposing lives to
the wanton and unpunishable sport of a licentious soldiery, and
depriving them of the very means of subsistence.
Resolved unanimously. That there is no reason to doubt but
the same system of tyranny and oppression will (Should it meet
with success in the Massachusetts-Bay) be extended to every
other part of America; it is therefore become the indispensi-
ble duty of every American, of every man who has any pub-
lick virtue or love for his Country, or any compassion for
posterity, by every means which God has put in his power, to
resist and oppose the execution of it; that for us we will be
ready to oppose it with our lives and fortunes. And the bet-
ter to enable us to accomplish it, we will immediately form
ourselves into a military body, to consist of companies to be
made up out of the several Townships under the following
Association, which is declared to be the Association of West-
moreland County.
Possessed with the most unshaken loyalty and fidelity to
His Majesty, King George the Third, whom we acknowledge
COUNTY OF WESTMORELAND. 263
to be our lawful and I'ighti'ul King, and who we wish may long
be the beloved Sovereign of a free and hapyy people through-
out the whole British Empire; we declare to the world, that
we do not mean by this Associataion to deviate from that loy-
alty which we hold it our bounden duty to observe; but ani-
mated with the love of liberty, it is no less our duty to main-
tain and defend our just rights (which, with sorrow, we have
seen of late wantonly violated in many instances by a wicked
Ministry and a corrupted Parliament), and transmit them en-
tire to our posterity, for which purpose we do agree and asso-
ciate together.
1st. To arm and form ourselves into a Regiment or Regi-
ments, and choose officers to command us in such proportion
as shall be thought necessary.
2d. We will, with alacrity, endeavor to make ourselves mas-
ters of the manual exercise, and such evolutions as may be nec-
essary to enable us to act in a body with concert; and to that
end we will meet at such times and places as shall be appointed
either for the Companies or the Regiment, by the OflBcers com-
manding each when chosen.
3d. That should our Country be invaded by a foreign enemy,
or should troops be sent from Great Britain to enforce the late
arbitrary Acts of its Parliament, we will cheerfully submit to
military discipline, and to the utmost of our power resist and
oppose them, or either of them, and will coincide with any.
plan that may be formed for the defence of America in gen-
eral, or Pennsylvania in particular.
4th. That we do not wish or desire any innovation, but only
that things may be restored to, and go on in the same way as
before the era of the Stamp Act, when Boston grew great, and
America was happy. As a proof of this disposition, we will
quietly submit to the laws by which we have been accustomed
to be governed before that period, and will, in our several or
associate capacities, be ready when called on to assist the civil
magistrate in carrying the same into execution.
5th. That when the British Parliament shall have repealed
their late obnoxious Statutes, and shall recede from their
claim to tax us, and make laws for us in every instance, or
when some general plan of union and reconcilation has been
formed and accepted by America, this our Association shall be
dissolved; but till then it shall remain in full force; and to
the observation of it, we bind ourselves by everything dear
and sacred amongst men.
No licensed murder! No famine introduced by law!

NARRATIVES OF THE EXPEDITION, (a.)
[The following narratives of two of the survivors of Craw-
ford's Expedition to Sandusky were given to the public shortly
after the return of the narrators. It is deemed perfectly pro-
per to reproduce them in connection with the preceding. That
of Dr. Knight was written by himself, that of Slover as related
by him was taken down by H. Brackenridge.]
NARRATIVE OF DR. KNIGHT.
About the latter end of the month of March or the beginning
ot April, of the present year (1782), the western Indians began
to make incursions upon the frontiers of Ohio and Washing-
ton, Youghiogany and Westmoreland counties, which has been
their constant practice ever since the commencement of the
present war between the United States and Great Britain.
In consequence of these predatory invasions, the principal
officers of the above mentioned counties, namely: Colonels
Williamson and Marshall, tried every method in their power
to set on foot an expedition against the Wyandot towns, which
they could effect no other way than by giving all possible en-
couragement to volunteers. The plan proposed was as follows:
Every man furnishing himself with a horse, a gun, and one
month's provisions, should be exempt from two tours of militia
duty. Likewise, that every one who had been plundered by
the Indians, should, if the plunder could be found at their
towns, have it again, proving it to be his property, and all
horses lost on the expedition by unavoidable accident were
to be replaced by horses taRen in the enemy's country.
The time appointed for the rendezvous, or the general meet-
ing of the volunteers, was fixed to be on the 20th of May, and
the place, the old Mingo town, on the west side of the river
Ohio, about forty miles below Fort Pitt, by land; and I think
about seventy-five by water.
Col. Crawford was solicited by the general voice of these
western counties and districts to command the expedition. He
accordingly set out as a volunteer, and came to Fort Pitt two
days before the time appointed for the assembling of the men.
364 ASSOCIATORS AND MILITIA.
As there was no Surgeon yet appointed to go with the ex-
pedition, Col. Crawford begged the favor of Gen. Irvine to per-
mit me to accompany him, (my consent having been previously
asked), to which the G.eneral agreed, provided Col. Gibson did
not object.
Having obtained permission of the Col., I left Fort Pitt on
Tuesday, May 1st, and the next day about one in the afternoon,
arrived at the Mingo bottom.
The volunteers had not all crossed the river until Friday
morning, the 24th, they then distributed themselves into eigh-
teen companies, choosing their captains by vote. There were
chosen also, one Col. Commandant, four field and one' brigadier
Major. There were four hundred and sixty-five that voted.
We began our march on Saturday, May 25th, making almost a
due West course, and on the fourth day reach the old Moravian
town, upon the river Muskingum, about 60 miles from the river
Ohio. Some of the men having lost their horses on the night
preceding, returned home.
Thursday, the 28th, in the evening. Major Brinton and Cap-
tain Bane, went some distance from camp to reconnoitre; hav-
ing gone about one-quarter of a mile they saw two Indians,
upon whom they fired, and then retreated to camp. This was
the first place in which we were discovered, as we understood
afterwards.
On Thursday, the 1th of June, which was the eleventh day
of our march, about one o'clock we came to the spot where the
town of Sandusky formerly stood; the inhabitants had moved
18 miles lower down the creek nearer the lower Sandusky; but
as neither our guides or any who were with us had known any
thing of their removal, we began to conjecture there were no
Indian towns nearer than the lower Sandusky, which was at
least forty miles distant.
However, after refreshing our horses we advanced in search
of some of their settlements, but had scarcely got the distance
of three or four miles from the old town when a number of
our men expressed their desire to return, some of them alleging
that they had only five days' provisions; upon which the field
Officers and Captains, determined in council, to proceed that
afternoon and no longer.
Previous to the calling of this Council, a small party of Light
Horse to reconnoitre, I shall here remark by the way that
there are a great many extensive plains in that country. The
woods in general grow very thin and free from brush and
underbrush; so that light horsemen may advance a considera-
COUNTY OF WESTMORELAND. 365
ble distance before an army without being much exposed to
the enemy.
Just as the council decided, an express returned from, the
above mentioned party of light horse with intelligence that
they had been about three miles in front, and had seen a large
body of Indians running towards them. In a short time we
saw the rest of the light horse, who joined us, and having gone
one mile further, met a number of Indians who had partly got
possession of a piece of woods before us, whilst we were in the
plains; but our men alighting from their horses and rushing
into the woods, soon obliged them to abandon that place.
The enemy being by this time reinforced, flanked to the
right, and part of them coming in nearer, quickly made the
action more serious. The firing continued very warm on both
sides from four o'clock until the dusk of the, evening, each
partly maintaining their ground. Next morning about f-ix
o'clock their guns were discharged, at the distance of two or
three hundred yards, which continued till day, doing little or
no execution on either side.
The field officers then assembled and agreed, as the enemy
were every moment increasing, and we had already a number
of wounded, to retreat that night. The whole body was tq
form into three lines, keeping the wounded in the centre.
We, had four killed and twenty-three wounded, of the latter,
seven very dangerously, on which account as many biers were
got ready to carry them; most of the rest were, slightly
wounded and none so bad but they could ride on horseback.
After dark the officers went on the out posts and brought in all
the men as expeditiously as they could. Just as the troops
were about to form, several guns were fired by the enemy*
upon which some of our men spoke out and said our intention
was discovered by the Indians who were firing alarm guns.
Upon which some in front hurried off and the rest immediately
followed, leaving the seven men that, were dangerously
wounded, some of whom however got off on horseback, by
means of some good friends, who waited for, and assisted them.
We had not got a quarter of a mile from the field of actioh
when I heard Col. Crawford calling for his son, John Crawford,
his son-in-law. Major Harrison, Major Rose and WiHiani Crawr
ford, his nephews, upon which I came up and told him I be-
lieved they were on before us. He asked was that the doctor?
I told him it was. He then replied they were not iij front, and
begged of me not to leave him. I promised him I would not.; ■
We then waited and continued calling for these men till the

troops had passed us. The Colonel told me his horse had almost
given out, that he could not keep up with the troops, and wished
some of his best friends to remain with him. He then ex-
claimed against the militia for riding off in such an irregular
manner, and leaving some of the wounded behind, contrary to
his orders. Presently there came two men riding after us, one
of them an old man, the other a lad. We enquired if they had
seen any of the above persons? They answered they had not.
By this time there was very hot firing before us, and as we
judged, near where our main body must have been. Our course
was then nearly Southwest, but changing it, we went north
about two miles, the two men remaining in company with us.
Judging ourselves to be now out of the enemy's lines, we took
a due East course, taking care to keep at the distance of fifteen
or twenty yards apart, and directing ourselves by the North
star.
The old man often lagged behind, and when this was the case,
never failed to call for us to halt for him. When we were near
the Sandusky creek he fell one hundred yards behind, and
bawled out, as usual, for us to halt. While we were preparing
to reprimand him for making a noise, I heard an Indian hallo,
as I thought, one hundred and fifty yards from the man, and
partly behind him. After this we did not hear the man call
again, neither did he ever come up to us any more. It was
now past midnight, and about daybreak Col. Crawford's and
the young man's horses gave out, and they left them. We
pursued our journey Eastward, and about two o'clock fell in
with Capt. Biggs, who had carried Lieut. Ashley from the field
of action, who had been dangerously wounded. We then
went on about the space of an hour, when a heavy rain com-
ing on, we concluded it was best to encamp, as we were encum-
bered with the wounded officer. We then barked four or five
trees, made an encampment and a fire, and remained there all
that night. Next morning we again prosecuted our journey,
and having gone about three miles found a deer which had been
recently killed. The meat was sliced from the bones and
bundled up in the skin, with a tomahawk lying by it. We car-
ried all with us, and in advancing about one mile further,
espied the smoke of a fire. We then gave the wounded officer
into the charge of the young man, directing him to stay be-
hind whilst the Colonel, the Captain and myself walked up as
cautiously as we could toward the fire. When we came to it,
we concluded, from several circumstances, some of our people
had encamped there the preceding night. We then went

about roasting the venison, and when just about to march, ob-
served one of our men coming upon our tracks. He seemed
at first very shy, but having called to him, he came up and
told us he was the person who had killed the deer, but upon
hearing us come up, was afraid of Indians, hid it in a thicket
and made off. Upon this we gave him some bread and roasted
venison, proceeded all together on our journey, and about two
o'clock came upon the paths by which we had gone out. Capt.
Biggs and myself did not think it safe to keep the road, but
the Colonel said the Indians would not follow the troops farther
than the plains, which we were then considerably past. As the
wounded officer rode Capt. Bigg's horse, I lent the Captain
mine. The Colonel and myself went about one hundred yards
in front, the Captain and the wounded officer in the centre,
and the two young men behind. After we had traveled about
one mile and a half, several Indians started up within fifteen
or twenty steps of the Colonel and me. As we at first discov-
ered only three, I immediately got behind a large black oak,
made ready my piece and raised it up to take sight, when the
Colonel called to me twice not to fire, upon that one of the In-
dians ran to the Colonel and took him by the hand.
They were Delaware Indians of the Wingenund tribe. Cap-
tain Biggs fired amongst them but did no execution. They
then told us to call these people and make them come there,
else they would go and kill them, which the Colonel did, but
they forgot us and escaped for that time. The Colonel and I
were then taken to the Indian camp, which was about half a
mile from the place where we were captured. On Sunday
evening five Delawares who had posted themselves at some
distance further on the road brought back to the camp, where
we lay, Captain Biggs' and Lieutenant Ashley's scalps, with
an Indian scalp which Captain Biggs had taken in the field of
action; they also brought in Biggs' horse and mine, they told
us the other two men got away from them.
Monday morning, the tenth of June, we were paraded to
march to Sandusky, about thirty-three miles distant; they
had eleven prisoners of us and four scalps, the Indians being
seventeen in number.
Col. Crawford was very desirous to see a certain Simon
Girty, who lived with the Indians, and was on this account
permitted to go to town the same night, with two warriors to
guard him, having orders at the same time to pass by the place
where the Col. had turned out his horse, that they might if
possible, find him. The rest of us were taken as far as the old
town which was within eight miles of the new.

Tuesday morning, the eleventh, Colonel Crawford was
brought out to us on purpose to be marched in with the other
prisoners. I asked the Col. if he had seen Mr. Girty? He told
me he had, and that Girty had promised to do every thing in
his power for him, but that the Indians were very much en-
raged against the prisoners; particularly Capt. Pipe one of the
chiefs; he likewise told me that Girty informed him that his
son-in-law, Col. Harrison and his nephew, William Crawford,
were made prisoners by the Shawanese, but had been pardoned.
This Captain Pipe had come from the town about an hour be-
fore Col. Crawford, and had painted all the prisoners' faces
black. As he was painting me he told me I should go to the
Shawanese towns and see my friends. When the Col. arrived
he painted him black also, told him he was glad to see him
and that he would have him shaved when he came to see his
friends at the Wyandot town. When we marched the Col. and
I were kept back between Pipe and Wingenund, the two Dela-
ware chiefs, the other nine prisoners were sent forward with
another party of Indians. As we went along we saw four of
the prisoners lying by the path tomahawked and scalped, some
of them were at the distance of half a mile from each other.
When we arrived within half a mile of the place where the
Col. was executed, we overtook the five prisoners that re-
mained alive; the Indians had caused them to sit down on
the ground, as they did also the Col. and me at some distance
from them. I was there given in charge to an Indian fellow
to be taken to the Shawanese towns.
In the place where we were now made to sit down there was
a number of squaws and boys, who fell on the five prisoners and
tomahawked them. There was a certain John McKinly
amongst the prisoners, formerly an officer in the 13th Virginia
regiment, whose head an old squaw cut off, and the Indians
kicked it about upon the ground. The young Indian fellows
came often where the Col. and I were, and dashed the scalps in
our faces. We were then conducted along toward the place
where the Col. was afterwards executed; when we came within
about half a mile of it, Simon Girty met us, with several In-
dians on horseback; he spoke to the Col., but as I was about
one hundred and fifty yards behind could not hear what passed
between them.
Almost every Indian we met struck us either with sticks or
their fists. Girty waited till I was brought up and asked, was
that the doctor? — I told him yes, and went toward him reaching
out my hand, but he bid me begone and called me a damned
COUNTY OF WESTMORELAND. 369
rascal, upon which the fellows who had me in charge pulled
me along. Girty rode up after me and told me I was to go to
the Shawanese towns.
When we went to the fire the Col. was stripped naked or-
dered to sit down by the fire and then they beat him with sticks
and their fists. Presently after I was treated in the same man-
ner. They then tied a rope to the foot of a post about fifteen
feet high, bound the Col's hands behind his back and fastened
the rope to the ligature between his wrists. The rope was
long enough for him to sit down or walk around the post once
or twice and return the same way. The Col. then called to
Girty and asked if they intended to burn him?— Girty answered,
yes. The Col. said he would take it all patiently. Upon this
Captain Pipe, a Delaware chief, made a speech to the Indians,
viz: about thirty or forty men, sixty or" seventy squaws and
boys.
When the speech was finished they all yelled a hideous and
hearty assent to what had been said. The Indian men then
took up their guns and shot powder into the Colonel's body,
from his feet as far up as his neck. I think not less than sev-
enty loads were discharged upon his naked body. Then they
crowded aboui him, and to the best of my observation, cut off
his ears; when the throng had dispersed a little I saw the blood
running from both sides of his head in consequence thereof.
The fire was about six or seven yards from the post to which
the Colonel was tied; it was made of small hickory poles,
burnt quite through in the middle, each end of the poles re-
maining about six feet in length. Three or four Indians by
turns would take up, individually, one of these burning pieces
of wood and apply it to his naked body, already burnt black
with powder. These tormentors presented themselves on every
side of him with the burning faggots and poles. Some of the
squaws took broad boards, upon which they would carry a
quantity of burning coals and hot embers and throw on him,
so that in a short time he had nothing but coals of fire and hot
ashes to walk upon.
In the midst of these extreme tortures, he called to Simon
Girty and begged of him to shoot him; but Girty making no
answer he called to him again. Girty then, by the was of deri-
sion told the Colonel he had no gun, at the same time turning
about to an Indian who was behind him. laughed heartly, and
by all his gestures seemed delighted at the horrid scene.
Girty then came up to me and bade me prepare for death.
He said, however, I was not to die at' that place, but to be

burnt at the Shawanese towns. He swore by G — d I need not
expect to escape death, but should suffer it in all its extrem-
ities.
He then observed, that some prisoners had given him to un-
derstand, that if our people had had him they would not hurt
him; for -his part, he said, he did not believe it, but desired
to know my opinion of the matter, but being at that time in
great anguish and distress for the torments the Colonel was
suffering before my eyes, as well as the expectation of under-
going the same fate in two days, I made little or no answer.
He expressed a great deal of ill will for Col. Gibson, and said
he was one of his greatest enemies, and more to the same pur-
pose to all which I paid very little attention. Col Crawford at
this period of his sufferings besought the Almighty to have
mercy on his soul, spoke very low, and bore his torments with
the most manly fortitude. He continued in all the extremities
of pain for an hour and three quarters or two hours longer, as
near as I can judge, when at least, being almost exhausted he
lay down on his belly, they then scalped him, and repeatedly
threw the scalp in my face, telling me "that was my great cap-
tain." An old squaw (whose appearance every way answered
the ideas people entertain of the Devil) got a board, took a
parcel of coals and ashes and laid them on his back and head,
after he had been scalped, he then raised himself upon his feet
and began to walk round the post; they next put a burning
stick to him as usual, but he seemed more insensible of pain
than before.
The Indian fellow who had me in charge, now took me away
to Capt. Pipes house, about three-quarters of a mile from the
place of the Colonel's execution. I was bound all night, and
thus prevented from seeing the last of the horrid spectacle.
Next morning, being June 12th, the Indian untied me, painted
me black, and we set off for the Shawanese town, which he
told me was somewhat less than forty miles from that place.
We soon came to the spot wher the Colonel had been burnt, as
It was partly in our way; I saw his bones lying amongst the
remains of the fire, almost burnt to ashes; I suppose after he
was dead they laid his body on the fire.
The Indian told me that was Big Captain, and gave the scalp
halloo. He was on horseback and drove me before him.
I pretended to this Indian I was ignorant of the death I was
to die at the Shawanese towns, assumed as cheerful a counte-
nance as possible, and asked him if we were not to live to-
gether as brothers in one house when we should get to the
COUNTY OF WESTMORELAND. 371
town? He seemed well pleased, and said yes. He then asked
me if I could make a wigwam?— I told him I could— he then
seemed more friendly. We went that day as near as I can
judge about 25 miles, the course partly Southwest.— The In-
dian told me we should next day come to the town, the sun
beipg in such a direction, pointing nearly South. At night,
when we went to rest, I attempted very often to untie myself,
but the Indian was extremely vigilant and scarcely ever shut
his eyes that night. About daybreak he got up and untied me;
he next began to mend up the fire, and the gnats were trouble-
some I asked him If I should make a smoke behind him— he
said yes. I then took the end of a dogwood fork which had
been burnt down to about 18 inches long; it was the longest
stick I could find, yet too small for the purpose I had in view;
then I picked up another smaller stick and taking a coal of
fire between them went behind him; then turning suddenly
about, I struck him on the head with all the force I was master
of; which so stunned him that he fell forward with both his
hands into the fire, but seeing him recover and get up, I seized
his gun while he ran off howling in a most fearful manner. I
followed him with a determination to shoot him down, but
pulling back the cock of the gun with too great violence, I be-
lieve I broke the main spring. I pursued him, however, about
thirty yards, still endeavoring to fire the gun, but could not;
then going back to the fire I took his blanket, a pair of new
moccasins, his hoppes, powder horn, bullet bag (together with
the gun), and marched off, directing my course toward the five
o'clock mark; about half an hour before sunset I came to the
plains which I think are about sixteen miles wide. I laid me
down in a thicket till dark, and then by the assistance of the
North star made my way through them and got into the woods
before morning. I proceeded on the next day, and about noon
crossed the paths by which our troops had gone out; these
paths are nearly East and West, but I went due North all that
afternoon with a view to avoid the enemy.
In the evening I began to be very faint, and no wonder; I
had been six days prisoner; the last two days of which I had
eat nothing, and but very little the first three or four; there
were wild gooseberries in abundance in the woods, but being
unripe, required mastication, which at that time I was not
able to perform on account of a blow received from an Indian
on the jaw with the back of a tomahawk. There was a weed
that grew plentifully in that place, the juice of which I knew
to be grateful and nourishing; I gathered a bundle of the
372 ASSOCIATORS AND MILITIA.
same, took up my lodging under a large spreading beech tree
and having sucked plentifully of the juice, went to sleep. Next
day, I made a due East course which I generally kept the rest
of my journey. I often imagined my gun was only wood
bound, and tried every method I could devise to unscrew the
lock but never could effect it, having no knife nor any thing
fitting for the purpose, I had now the satisfaction to find my
jaw began to mend, and in four or five days could chew any
vegetable proper for nourishment, but finding my gun only a
useless burden, left it in the wilderness. I had no apparatus
for making fire to sleep by, so that I could get but little rest for
the gnats and musketoes; there are likewise a great many
swamps in the beech ridge, which occasioned me very often to
lie wet; this ridge through which I traveled, is about 20 miles
broad, the ground in general very level and rich, free from
shrubs and brushes; there are, however, very few springs, yet
wells might easily be dug in all parts of the ridge; the timber
on it is very lofty, but it is no easy matter to make a straight
course through the same, the moss growing as high upon the
South side of the trees as upon the North. There are a great
many white oaks, ash and hickory trees that grow among the
beech timber; there are likewise some places on the ridge, per-
haps for three or four continued miles where there is little or
no beech, and in such spots, black, whiteoak, ash and hickory
abound. Sugar trees grow there also to a very great bulk —
the soil is remarkably good, the ground a little ascending and
descending with some small rivulets and a fev/ springs. When
I got out of the beech ridge, and nearer the river Muskingum,
the lands were more broken but equally rich with those
before mentioned and abounding with brooks and springs
of water; there are also several small creeks that empty
into that river, the bed of which is more than a mile
wide in many places; the woods consist of white and black oak,
walnut, hickory and sugar trees in the greatest abundance. In
all parts of the country through which I came the game was
very plenty, that is to say, deer, turkeys and pheasants; I like-
wise saw a great many vestiges of bears and some elks.
I crossed the river Muskingum about three or four miles be-
low Fort Lawrence, and crossing all paths aimed for the Ohio
river. All this time my food was gooseberries, young nettles,
the juice of herbs, a few service berries, and some May apples,
likewise two young blackbirds and a terrapin, which I de-
voured raw. When my food sat heavy on my stomach, I used
to eat a little wild ginger which put all to rights.
I came upon the Ohio river about five miles below Fort Mc-
COUNTY OF WESTMORELAND. 373
Intosh, in the evening of the 21st day after I had made my es-
cape, and on the 22d about seven o'clock in the morning, being
the fourth of July, arrived safe, though very much fatigued,
at the Fort.
NARRATIVE OF JOHN SLOVER.
Having in the last war been a prisoner amongst the Indians
many years, and so being well acquainted with the country
west of the Ohio, I was employed as a guide in the expedition
under Col. William Crawford against the Indian towns on or
near the river Sandusky. It will be unnecessary for me to re-
late what is so well known, the circumstances and unfortu-
nate events of that expedition; it will be sufficient to observe,
that having on Tuesday the fourth of June, fought the enemy
near Sandusky, we lay that night in our camp, and the next
day fired on each other at the distance of three hundred yards,
doing little or no execution. In the evening of that day it was
proposed by Col. Crawford, as I have since been informed, to
draw off with order but at the moment of our retreat the In-
dians (who had probably perceived that we were about to
retreat) firing alarm guns, our men broke and rode off in con-
fusion, treading down those who were on foot, and leaving
the wounded men who supplicated to be taken with them.
I was with some others on the rear of our troops feeding our
horses in the glade, when our men began to break.. The main
body of our people had passed by me a considerable distance
before I was ready to set out. I overtook them before they
crossed the glade, and was advanced almost in front. The
company in which I was had separated from me, and had en-
deavored to pass a morass, for coming up I 'found their horses
had stuck fast in the morass, and endeavoring to pass, mine
also in a short time stuck fast. I ought to have said, the com-
pany of five or six men with which I had been immediately
connected, and who were some distance to the right of the
main body, had separated from me, &c. I tried a long time to
disengage my horse, until I could hear the enemy just behind
me, and on each side, but in vain. Here then I was obliged to
leave him. The morass was so unstable that I was to the mid-
dle in it, and it was with the greatest difficulty that I got
across it, but which having at length done, I came up with
374 ASSOCIATORS AND MILITIA.
the six men who had left their horses in the same manner I
had done; two of these, my companions, having lost their
guns.
We traveled that night, making our course towards Detroit,
with a view to shun the enemy, who we conceived to have
taken the paths by which the main body of our people had re-
treated. Just before day we got into a second deep morass, and
were under the necessity of delaying until it was light to see
our way through it. The whole of this day we traveled
towards the Shawanese towns, with a view of throwing our-
selves still farther out of the search of the enemy. About ten
o'clock this day we sat down to eat a little, having tasted noth-
ing from Tuesday, the day of our engagement until this time
which was on Thursday, and now the only thing we had to
eat was a scrap of pork to each. We had sat down by a war-
rior's path which we had not suspected, when eight or nine
warriors appeared. Running off hastily we left our baggage
and provision, but were not discovered by the party; for skulk-
ing some time in the grass and bushes, we returned to the
place and recovered our baggage. The warriors had halooed
as they passed, and were answered by others on our flanks.
In our journey through the glades, or wide extended dry
meadows, about twelve o'clock this day, we discovered a
party of Indians in front, but skulking in the grass and bushes
were not perceived by them. In these glades we were in great
danger, as we could be seen at a great distance. In the after-
noon of this day there fell a heavy rain, and then traveling on
we saw a party of the enemy about two hundred yards before
us, but hiding ourselves in the bushes we had again the good
fortune not to be discovered. This night we got out of the
glades, having in the night crossed the paths by which we had
advanced to Sandusky.
It was our design to leave all these paths to the right and to
come in by the Tuscarawas. We would have made a much
greater progress had it not been for two of our companions,
who were lame, the one having his foot burned, the other with
a swelling in his knee of a rheumatic nature. On this day
which was the second after the retreat one of our company, the
person affected with the rheumatic swelling was left behind
some distance in a swamp. Waiting for him some time we
saw him coming within one hundred yards, as I sat on the
body of an old tree mending my moccasins, but taking my eye
from him I saw him no more. He had not observed our tracks,
but had gone a different way. We whistled on our chargers.
COUNTY OF WESTMORELAND. 375
and afterwards halooed for him, but in vain. Nevertheless he
was fortunate in missing us, for he afterwards came safe into
Wheeling, which is a post of ours on the Ohio, about 70 miles
below Fort Pitt. We traveled on until night, and were on the
waters of the Muskingum from the middle of this day.
Having caught a fawn this day, we made a fire in the evening
and had a repast, having in the meantime eat nothing but the
small bit of pork I mentioned before. We set off at break of
day. About nine o'clock the third day we fell in with a party
of the enemy about 12 miles from the Tuscarawas, which is
about 135 miles from Fort Pitt. They had come upon our
tracks or had been on our flanks and discovered us, and then
having got before, had waylaid us, and fired before we per-
ceived them. At the first fire one of my companions fell before
me and another just behind me; these two had guns; there
were six men in company, and four guns, two of these ren-
dered useless by reason of the wet when coming through the
swamp the first night; we had tried to discharge them but
could not. When the Indians fired I ran to a tree, but an In-
dian presenting himself fifteen yards before me, directed me to
deliver myself up and I should not be hurt. My gun was in
good order, but apprehending the enemy behind might discharge
their pieces at me, I did not risk firing, which I had afterwards
reason to regret when I found what was to be my fate, and that
the Indian who was before me and presented his gun was one
of those who had just before fired. Two of my companions
were taken with me in the same manner, the Indians assuring
us we should not be hurt. But one in company, James Paul,
who had a gun in order, made his escape and has since come
into Wheeling. One of these Indians knew me, and was of the
party by whom I was taken in the last war. He came up and
spoke to me calling me by Indian name, Mannuchothee, and
upbraiding me for coming to war against them.
I will take a moment here to relate some particulars of my
first captivity and my life since. I was taken from New River
in Virginia by the Miamese, a nation called by us Picts, amongst
whom I lived six years, afterwards being sold to a Delaware
and by him put into the hands of a trader. I was carried
amongst the Shawanese, with whom I continued six years; so
that my whole time amongst these nations was twelve years,
that is, from the eighth to the twentieth year of my age. At
the treaty of Fort Pitt, in the fall preceding what is called Dun-
more's War, which if I am right, was in the year 1773, I came
in with the Shawanese nation to the treaty, and meeting with
376 ASSOCIATORS AND MILITIA.
some of my relations at that place, was by them solicited to re-
linquish the life of a savage, which I did with some reluctance,
this manner of life having become natural to me, inasmuch as
I had scarcely known any other. I enlisted as a soldier in the
continental army at the commencement of the present war,
and served fifteen months. Having been properly discharged
I have since married, have a family and am in communion
with the church.
To return, the party by whom we were made prisoners had
taken some horses, and left them at the glades we had passed
the day before. They had followed on our tracks from these
glades, on our return to which we found the horses and rode.
We were carried to Wachatomakak, a town of the Mingoes and
Shawanese. I think it was on the third day we reached the
town, which when we were approaching, the Indians in whose
custody we were, began to look sour, having been kind to us
before and given us a little meat and flour to eat, which they
had found or taken from some of our men in their retreat.
Tbis town is small and we were told was about two miles dis-
tant from the main town to which they intended to carry us.
The inhabitants from this town came out with clubs and tom-
ahawks, struck, beat and abused us greatly. One of my two
companions they seized, and having stripped him naked,
blacked him with coal and water. This was the sign of being
burnt; the man seemed to surmise it and shed tears. He asked
me the meaning of his being blacked; but I was forbid by the
enemy in their own language, to tell him what was intended.
In English, which they spoke easily, having been often at Fort
Pitt, they assured him he was not to be hurt. I know of no
reason for making him the first object of their cruelty unless
it was that he was the oldest.
A warrior had been sent to the great town to acquaint them
with our coming and prepare them for the frolic; for on our
coming to it, the inhabitants came out with guns, clubs and
tomahawks. We were told that we had to run to the council
house, about three hundred yards. The man that was blacked
was about twenty yards before us in running the gauntlet.
They made him their principal object, men, women and chil-
dren beating him, and those who had guns firing loads of pow-
der on him as he ran naked, putting the muzzels of the guns
to his body, shouting, hollooing and beating their drums in the
meantime.
The unhappy man had reached the door of the council house,
beat and wounded in a manner shocking to the sight; for hav-
COUNTY OF WESTMORELAND. 377
ing arrived before him we had in our power to view the specta-
cle— it was indeed the most horrid that can be conceived.
They had cut him with their tomahawks; shot his body blacli,
burnt it into holes with loads of powder blown into him; a
large wadding bad made a wound in his shoulder whence the
blood gushed.
Agreeable to the declaration of the enemy, when he first set
out he had reason to think himself secure when he had reached
the door of the council house. This seemed to be his hope, for
coming up with great struggling and endeavors, he laid hold
of the door but was pulled back and drawn away by them; find-
ing they intended no mercy, but putting him to death, he at-
tempted several times to snatch or lay hold of some of their
tomahawks, but being weak could not effect it. We saw him
borne off, and they were a long time beating, wounding and
pursuing and killing him.
That same evening I saw the dead body of this man close by
the council house. It was mangled cruelly, and the blood
mingled with the powder was rendered black. The same even-
ing I saw him after he had been cut to pieces, and his limbs
and head about two hundred yards on the outside of the town
put on poles. That evening also I saw the bodies of three
others in the same black and mangled condition; these I was
told had been pul to death the same day, and just before we
had reached the town. Their bodies as they lay were black,
bloody, burnt with powder. Two of these were Harrison (1) and
young Crawford. (2) I knew the visage of Col. Harrison, and
I saw his clothing and that of Young Crawford at the town.
They brought horses to me and asked if I knew them. I said
they were Harrison and Crawford's; they said they were.
The third of these men I did not know, but believe to have
been Col. McCleland, the third in command on the expedition.
The next day the bodies of these men were dragged to the out-
side of the town and their carcases being given to the dogs,
their limbs and heads were stuck upon poles.
My surviving companion shortly after we had reached the
council house was sent to another town, and I presume, he was
burnt or executed in the same manner.
In the evening the men assembled in the council house; this
is a large building about fifty yards in length, and about
twenty-five yards wide, and about sixteen feet in height, built
of spit poles covered with bark; their first object was to exam-
ine me, which they could do in their own language, inasmuch
as I could speak the Miami, Shawanese and Delaware Ian-

guages, which I had learned during my early captivity in the
last war; I found I had not forgotten these languages, especially
the two former, as well as my native tongue.
'They began with interrogating me, concerning the situation
of our country, what were our provisions? our numbers? the
state of the war between us and Britain? I informed them
Cornwallis had been taken, which next day, when Matthew
Elliot with James Girty (3) came, he affirmed to be a lie. and
the Indians seemed to give full credit to his declaration.
Hitherto I had been treated with some appearance of kind-
ness, but now the enemy began to alter their behavior towards
me. Girty had informed them, that when he asked me how I
liked to live there, I had said that I intended to take the first
opportunity to take a scalp and run off. It was, to be sure,
very probable that if I had such intention, I would communi-
cate it to him. Another man came to me and told me a story
of his having lived on the south branch of Potomac in Vir-
ginia, and having three brothers there, he pretended he
wanted to get away, but I suspected his design; nevertheless
he reported that I had consented to go. In the meantime I
was not tied, and could have escaped, but having nothing to
put on my feet, I waited some time longer to provide for this.
I was invited every night to the war dance, which they
usually continued until almost day. I could not comply with
their desire, believing these things to be the service of the
devil. The council lasted fifteen days; fifty to one hundred
warriors being usually in council, and sometimes more. Every
warrior is admitted to these councils, but only the chiefs or
head warriors have the privilege of speaking. The head war-
riors are accounted such from the number of scalps they have
taken. The third day McKee was in council and afterwards
was generally present. He spoke little, and did not ask any
questions or speak to me at all. He lives about two miles out
of town, has a house built of square logs with a shingle roof;
he was dressed in gold lace clothes. I had seen him at the
former town through which I had passed. I think it was on
the last day of the council save one that a speech came from
Detroit, brought by a warrior who had been counselling with
the commanding officer at that place. The speech had been
long expected, and was in answer to one some time before
sent from the town to Detroit. It was in a belt of Wampum,
and began with addressing them, "My children," and inquiring
why they continue to take prisoners? Provisions are scarce;
when prisoners are brought in we are obliged to maintain them,

and still some of them are running away and carrying tidings
of our affairs. When any of your people fall into the hands
of the rebels, they show no mercy; why then should you take
prisoners? Take no more prisoners, my children, of any sort;
man, woman or child.
Two days after, a party of every nation that was near being
collected, it was determined on to take no more prisoners of
any sort. They had held a large council, and the determination
was, that if it were possible they could find a child of a span
or three inches long, they would show no mercy to it. At the
conclusion of the council it was agreed upon by all the tribes
present, viz: the Tawaws, Chippawaws, the Wyandots, the
Mingoes, the Delawares, the Shawanese, Munses, and a part of
the Cherokees, that should any of the nations who were not
present take any prisoners, these would rise against them, take
away the prisoners and put them to death.
In the course of these deliberations I understood what was
said perfectly. They laid plans against our settlements of
Kentucky, the Falls, and towards Wheeling. These it will be
unnecessary for me to mention in this narrative, more espec-
ially as the Indians finding me to have escaped, and knowing
that I would not fail to communicate these designs, will be
led to alter their resolutions.
There was one council held at which I was not present. The
warriors had sent for me as usual, but the squaw with whom I
lived would not suffer me to go, but hid me under a large
quantity of skins. It may have been from an unwillingness
that I should hear in council the determination with respect to
me, that I should be burnt.
About this time, twelve men were brought in from Kentucky,
three of whom were burnt on this day; the remainder were dis-
tributed to other towns, and all, as the Indians informed me,
were burnt. This was after the speech came from Detroit.
On the day after, I saw an Indian who had just come into
town, and who said that the prisoners he was bringing to be
burnt, and who he said was a doctor, had made his escape from
him. I knew this must have been Dr. Knight, who went as
surgeon of the expedition. The Indian had a wound four
inches long in his head, which he acknowledged the doctor
had given him; he was cut to the skull. His story was that he
had untied the doctor, being asked by him to do so, the doctor
promising that he would not go away; that while he was em-
ployed in kindling the fire the doctor snatched up the gun had
come behind and struck him; that he then made a stroke at
380 ASSOCIATORS AND MILITIA.
the doctor with his knife, which he laid hold of, and his fingers
were cut almost off, the knife being drawn through his hand;
that he gave the doctor two stabs, one in the back, the other
in the belly; said the doctor was a great big, tall, strong man.
Being now adopted in an Indian family, and having some con-
fidence for my safety, I took the liberty to contradict this and
said that I knew the doctor, who was a weak, little man. The
other warriors laughed immoderately, and did not seem to
credit him. (4.) At this time I was told that Col. Crawford
was burnt, and they greatly exulted over it.
The day after the council I have mentioned, about forty war-
riors, accompanied by George Girty, came early in the mora-
ing round the house where I was. The squaws gave me up, 1
was sitting before the door of the house; they put a rope
round my neck, tied my arms behina my back, stripped rv
naked, and blackened me in the usual manner. George Girty,
as soon as I was tied, d d me, and said that I now should
get what I had deserved many years. I was led away to a
town distant about five miles, to which a messenger had been
dispatched to desire them to prepare to receive me.
Arriving at this town, I was beaten with clubs and the pipe
ends of their tomahawks, and was kept for some time tied to
a tree before a house door. In the meanwhile the inhabitants
set out to another town about two miles distant, where I was
to be burnt, and where I arrived about three o'clock in the
afternoon.
Here also was a council house, part of it covered and part
of it without a roof. In the part of it where no cover was, but
only sides built up, there stood a post about sixteen feet in
height, and in the middle of the house around the post, there
were three piles of wood built about three feet high and four
feet from the post.
Being brought to the post my arms were tied behind me, and
the thong or cord with which they were bound was fastened
to the post; a rope also was put about my neck, and tied to
the post about four feet above my head. During the time they
were tying me, piles of wood were kindled and began to flame.
Death by burning, which appeared to be now my fate, I had
resolved to sustain with patience. The divine grace of God
had made it less alarming to me; for on my way this day I
had been greatly exercised in regard to my latter end. I knew
myself to have been a regular member of the church, and to
have sought repentance for my sins; but though I had often
heard of the faith of assurance, had known nothing of it; but
COUNTY OF WESTMORELAND. 381
early this day, instantaneously by a change wrought upon me
sudden and perceivable as lightning, an assurance of my peace
made with God, sprung up in mind. The following words were
the subject of my meditation — "In peace thou shalt see God.
Fear not those who can kill the body. In peace shalt thou de-
part." I was on this occasion by a confidence in mind not to
be resisted, fully assured of my salvation. This being the
case I was willing, satisfied and glad to die.
I was tied to the post, as I have already said, and the flame
was now kindled. The way was clear, not a cloud to be seen.
If there were clouds low in the horizon, the sides of the house
prevented me from seeing them, but I heard no thunder, or ob-
served anj' sign of approaching rain; just as the fire of one
pile began to blaze, the wind rose, from the time they began
to kindle the fire and to tie me to the post, until the wind be-
gan to blow, was about fifteen minutes. The wind blew a hur-
ricane, and the rain followed in less than three minutes. The
rain fell violent; and the fire, though it began to blaze con-
siderably, was instantly extinguished. The rain lasted about
a quarter of an hour.
When it was over the savages stood amazed, and were a long
time silent. At last one said, we will let him alone till morn-
ing, and take a whole day's frolic in burning him. The sun at
this time was about three hours high. It was agreed upon, and
the rope about my neck was untied, and making me sit down,
they began to dance round me. They continued dancing in this
manner until eleven o'clock at night; in the meantime, beating,
kicking and wounding me with their tomahawks and clubs. (5)
At last one of the warriors, the Half Moon, asked me if I was
sleepy? I answered, yes. The head warrior then chose out three
warriors to take care of me. I was taken to a block house; my
arms were tied until the cord was hid in the flesh, they were
tied in two places, round the wrist and above the elbows. A
rope was fastened about my neck and tied to a beam of the
house, but permitting me to lie down on a board. The three war-
riors were constantly harassing and troubling me, saying, "How
will you like to eat fire to morrow — you will kill no more In-
dians now." I was in expectation of their going to sleep,
when at length, about an hour before daybreak, two laid down,
the third smoked a pipe, talked to me and asked the same
painful questions. About half an hour after, he also laid down;
I heard him begin to snore. Instantly I went to work, and as
my arms were perfectly dead with the cord, I laid myself down
upon my right arm which was behind my back, and keeping
382 ASSOCIATORS AND MILITIA.
it fast with my fingers, which had still some life and strength,
I slipped the cord from my left arm over my elbow and my
wrist. One of the warriors now got up and stirred the fire. I
was apprehensive that I should be examined, and thought it
was over with me, but my hopes revived when now he lay
down again. I then attempted to unloose the rope about my
neck; tried to gnaw it, but it was in vain, as it was as thick
as my thumb and as hard as iron, being made of a buffalo hide.
I wrought with it a long time, gave it out, and could see no re-
lief. At this time I saw daybreak and heard the cock crow. I
made a second attempt, almost without hope, pulling the rope
by putting my fingers between my neck and it, and to my great
surprise it came easily untied. It was a noose with two or
three knots tied over it.
I slipped over the warriors as they lay, and having got out
of the house, looked back to see if there was any disturbance.
I then ran through the town into a corn field; in my way I saw
a squaw with four or five children lying asleep under a tree.
Going in a different way into the field, I untied my arm, which
was greatly swollen and turned black. Having observed a
number of horses in the glade as I ran through it, I went back
to catch one, and on my way found a piece of an old rug or
quilt hanging on a fence, which I took with me. Having
caught the horse, the rope with which I had been tied served
for a halter, I rode off. The horse was strong and swift, and
the woods being open and the country level, about ten o'clock
that day I crossed the Scioto river at a place, by computation,
fifty full miles from the town. I had rode about twenty five
miles on this side of the Scioto by three o'clock in the after-
noon, when the horse began to fail, and could no longer go on
a trot. I instantly left him, and on foot, ran about twenty
miles farther that day, making in the whole the distance of
near one hundred miles. In the evening I heard hallooing be-
hind me, and for this reason did not halt until about ten o'clock
at night, when I sat down, was extremely sick and vomited;
but when the moon rose, which might have been about two
hours after, I went on and traveled until day.
During the night I had a path, but in the morning judged it
prudent to forsake the path and take a ridge for a distance of
fifteen miles, in a line at right angles to my course, putting
back as I went along, with a stick, the weeds which I had bent,
lest I should be tracked by the enemy. I lay the next night
on the waters of Muskingum; the nettles had been troubesome
to me after my crossing the Scioto, having nothing to defend
myself but the piece of a rug which I had found and which
COUNTY OF WESTMORELAND. 383
while I rode I used under me by way of a saddle; the briars and
thorns were now painful too, and prevented me from traveling
in the night until the moon appeared. In the meantime I was
prevented from sleeping by the mosquitoes, for even in the day
I was under the necessity of traveling with a handful of
bushes to brush them from my body.
The second night I reached Cushakin, next day came to
Newcomer's town, where I got about seven raspberries, which
were the first thing I ate from the morning on which the In-
dians had taken me to burn me until this time, which was now
about three o'clock the fourth day. I felt hungry very little,
but was extremely weak. I swam Muskingum river at Old-
comer's town, the river being two hundred yards wide; hav-
ing reached the bank. I sat down, looked back and thought I
had a start of the Indians if any should pursue. That evening
I traveled about five miles, next day came to Stillwater, a
small river, in a branch of which I got two small crawfish to
eat. Next night I lay within five miles of Wheeling, but had
not slept a wink during this whole time, being rendered im-
possible by the mosquitoes, which it was my constant employ-
ment to brush away. Next day came to Wheeling, and saw
a man on the island in the Ohio opposite to that post, and
calling to him and asking for particular persons who had been
on the expedition, and telling him I was Slover, at length with
great difficulty, he was persuaded to come over and bring me
across in his canoe.
At the same time, though I would strike away this excuse
which is urged for the savages, I am far from approving the
Moravian slaughter. Doubtless the existence of that body of
people in our neighborhood, was of disadvantage, as they were
under the necessity of receiving and refusing the Sandusky
savages as they came to war, and as they returned, and as no
doubt some amongst them communicated intelligence of any
expedition on foot against the enemy. I am also disposed to
believe that the greater part of the men put to death were
warriors; this appears from the testimony of one against
another, from the confession of many, from their singing the
war song when ordered out to be tomahawked, from the cut
and painting of their hair, and from other circumstances. The
greater part of the Moravian men who were really peaceable or
well affected to us, having been carried off the fall before, and
still detained at Sandusky.
But the putting to death the women and children, who sang
hymns at their execution, must be considered as unjustifiable,

inexcusable homicide; and the Colonel who commanded the
party, and who is said perseveringly, contrary to the remon-
strances of officers present, to have enjoined the perpetration
of the act, has not yet been called to an account, is a disgrace
to the State of Pennsylvania.
(1) This was Col. Harrison, son-in-law to Col. Crawford, one
of the first men in the Western country. He had been greatly
active on many occasions in devising measures for the defence
of the frontiers, and his character as a citizen in every way,
then a young man, distinguished and respectable. He had been
a magistrate under the jurisdiction of Virginia, and I believe
a delegate to the Assembly of that State. I know no man with
whose grave, sedate manners, prudent conduct, good sense and
public spirit on all occasions 1 was more pleased.
H. BRACKENRIDGE.
(2) This was a son of Col. Crawford. I do not remember to
have seen him, nor was I acquainted with his character before
the exjfedition, but have since been informed universally, that
he was a young man greatly and deservedly esteemed as a sol-
dier and as a citizen.

(3) These men, Elliot and Girty, were inhabitants of the
western country, and since the commencement of the war, for
some time professed an attachment to America, went off to the
Indians. They are of that horrid brood called Refugees, and
whom the devil has long since marked for his own property.
(4) It is well known that Mr. Slover mentioned these circum-
stances at his first coming into Wheeling, and before he could
have known the relation of the doctor, for that this is an
evidence of the truth of the doctor's account, and his own.
H. B.
(5) I observed marks on the man when 1 saw him, which was
eight or ten days after he came in, particularly a wound above
his right eyebrow, which he had received with the pipe end of
a tomahawk; but his back and body generally had been injured.

THE SANDUSKY EXPEDITION, (a.)
[It is not the intention of the Editor to present an account of
the unfortunate expedition of Col. Crawford to Sandusky. The
narratives of Knight and Slover, which follow these lists of
volunteers, are sufficient for the general reader. Of the men
who went upon the expedition, we have the rolls of sixteen of
the eighteen detachments of companies. About two-thirds of
the troops were from Washington county, and with possibly
the exception of one company, the rest from Westmoreland
county, under which we place the entire force.' That these
portions of companies were upon that service we fully believe,
being borne out by the fact that all contained certificates simi-
lar to the one re-produced in fac simile on the opposite page.
The most reliable work on Crawford's Expedition against
Sandusky is that by Consul Wilshire Butterfield, published at
Cincinnati in 1873.]

LOCHRY'S EXPEDITION, (a.)
[In the summer of 1781, Colonel Archibald Lochry, Lieuten-
ant of Westmoreland county, raised several companies of vol-
unteers, of which he was chosen Commander, for the purpose
of joining the force of Col. George Rogers Clark on an ex-
pedition against the Shavvanese and other Indian towns in
Ohio, with scout designs against the British Post at Detroit.
The party of one hundred & seven mounted volunteers ren-
dezvoused at Carnahan's Block House, eleven miles west of
Hanna's town, on the 24th July, 1781. They began their march
on the 2nd of August by way of Fort Pitt to Fort Henry
(Wheeling), where they arrived on the 8th, about twelve hours
after Col. Clark with all the men, boats and stores he could
gather had departed, leaving orders for Col. Lochry to follow
and overtake him at the mouth of Little Kanawha. Several
days were consumed by Col. Lochry in getting started. In the
meantime Clark's men began to desert; and Lochry appre-
hended Lieutenant Baker and sixteen men who were desert-
ing from Clark at Fishing creek. To prevent desertion Col.
Clark was obligeu to proceed from the Kanawha leaving a letter
affixed to a pole directing Lochry to follow to the Falls of the
Ohio. Lochry's stores and forage gave out at this point and
he detached Capt. Shannon with seven men in a small boat
to overtake Clark and secure supplies. This detachment had
not proceeded far when the Indians, who were carefully watch-
ing the expedition, captured Shannon and all of his men but
two, and also obtained a letter to Col. Clark detailing Lochry's
situation. Joseph Brandtt, with one hundred Indian warriors,
lay in wait to attack Clark at the mouth of the Miami River,
but Clark passed in the night, but the Indians being afraid of
the cannon and the number of men did not molest him, but
concluded to wait for Lochry's party. It is said that the In-
dians placed the prisoners they had taken in a conspicuous
position on the north shore of the Ohio River and promised to
spare their lives on condition that they would hail Lochry's
404 ASSOCIATORS AND MILITIA.
party and induce them to land and surrender. However this
may have been, at about 10 o'clock on August 24th, Lochry
having reached an attractive spot about ten miles below the
mouth of the Big Miami, near the present town of Aurora,
Dearborn County, Indiana, landed on the north side of the
Ohio River in the mouth of a creek which has since been
called Lochry's Creek. The Ohio River was very low and a
large sandbar extended from the south almost across to the
north bank of the river. Col. Lochry's party, wearied with
their slow and laborious progress and discouraged by the fail-
ure to overtake Clark's army, removed their horses ashore and
turned them loose to feed while some of the men cut grass
sufficient to keep them alive until they should reach the Falls.
A buffalo had been killed and all were engaged in preparing a
meal, when the Indians appeared on both sides of the river,
and began firing from the woods. The soldiers seized their
arms and made a defense as long as their ammunition held
out. An attempt was made to escape by the boats, but they
were sO' unwieldy find the water so low that the Indians cut
them off. Unable to escape or defend themselves, Col. Lochry
sun'endered. Brant, the Indian Chief, says thirty-six, in-
cluding five officers, were killed and sixty-four made prisoners.
One or two escaped, but did not reach home for several months
afterwards. Lochry was tomahawked by a Shawanese Indian
after the battle while sitting on a log, and all the wounded
who were unable to m.arch v/ere similarly dispatched. The
prisoners were marched eight miles up the Miami River, sub-
sequently taken to Detroit, and sent from there to Montreal.
Of the officers and men, v/e have the names of only a few, those
herewith given.]

Petition of the Fourth class of the Fourth Battalion of the
York county Militia, April 30, 1779.
To the Supreme Executive Council of the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania:
Gentlemen:— the humble petition of the Fourth Class of
the Fourth Battalion of York County Militia, humbly Sueth,
that whereas your Honours have been pleased to send forth
your Order, to call out the Fourth Class of the Militia at this
time, to go to the frontiers against the Common Enemy, we
think ourselves very much agrieved by Said Call, for the fol-
lowing reasons —
First— We were called before, when the enemy was in the
City, and we turned out with great Spirit, and underwent much
danger and fatigue, and »t that time we must either go or pay
forty Pounds; but when the Eighth Class was called only one
man turned out of the Battalion, and them that Stayed at home
got off for paying a trifle— and when the next call came last
fall, it was for three classes, when one, if they had turned out,
would have raised more men than was wanted; and the three
classes joined and paid one volunteer out of a class, which
made up the number of men wanted, and there was no more
to pay, nor no Appeal held but for those that was Conscience
bound; and whereas, we are now called, we are informed we
must either go or pay one hundred Pounds; and what further
adds to our grievance to be called from home at a time when
we should put our Spring crops in the ground, and if we are
to stay two months out at this time of the year then we will
be deprived of putting any fall crop in the ground—
And now, Gentlemen, we pray you may take our case under
your consideration, and put us upon an equal footing with our
fellow Citizens, or grant us Such relief as you in your Wisdom
may think proper, and we as in duty bound shall ever pray—.

To the Hon. President or Vice President, and Council, of the
free men of the State of Pennsylvaftia in Council met:
The Petition humbly sheweth that we your humble peti-
tioners, do look upon ourselves not only much agrieved, but
even insulted, by reason of a certain John McKinley (a most
avowed enemy of our Constitution), being imposed upon us as
a wagon Master for this Battalion. It is very notorious that
said McKinley has been long an enemy to the Common Cause
of our Country, frequently SpeakiMg most bitterly against the
measures Concerted for the defence of our invaluable rights
and privileges; has often reported, that he was indeed Some-
what friendly to the Cause at first, but for that reason God had
550 ASSOCIATORS AND MILITIA.
taken away three of his children by death; and that he did not
now any man that was Spirited in the Cause, but God had
either taken him away by death, or Cast him into a bed of
Sickness. When our Militia have been called together, he has
frequently used all his influence with Some to prevent their
going out. He has also declared that he would join How's
Army rather than Submit to the Laws of our State; and abso-
lutely refused to take the oath of Allegiance, and Swore he
would Suffer death first; but yet he being told upon receiving
his Commission, that he must Either take the Oath, or it
would be taken from him, he chose that, which to him it seems
was worse than death, rather than not be a Wagon Master.
Now having hinted to your Honours the Consistency and be-
fore unheard of Zeal of this wagon driver, ycur wisdoms will
at once see how well qualified he is for his Commission. Es-
pecially when (to be timely serious), we inform your honors,
he has been heard cursing the Council and Assembly; has in
the most depreciating manner spoken against our Continental
bills of Credit. But we shall not add, unless it be, that when
his own Son, David McKinley, was requested by Benjamin
Peden, Esqr., to take the oath of Allegiance, he answered that
he could not while he was about his Father's house; for if he
did he would be perjured every night if he did not inform
against his Father. In short such is the man, and such his
Tory principles and Conduct, that it will be impossible ever
to bring the people here, willingly to serve under him.
We petitioned Joseph Geffreys, County Wagon Master, to
have him turned out and another put in his place; but he paid
not the least regard to our Petition, and heard our petition
just as the King and parliament heard the Petition of the
Americans.
Upon the whole, we would humbly beg leave to observe to
your honourable body that we cannot but look upon it as an
insufferable grievance, And a very great infringement upon our
Liberties, that a man of no veracity and so notoriously inimi-
cable to the Common Cause which we are all contending for.
Should be Suffered to bear any rule over a people, many of
whom have already risked their lives in the not)le Cause of
Liberty, and are still determined to persist in the glorious pur-
suit, though at the risk of Life and Fortune.
We humbly hope, therefore, that proper measures will be
taken to turn out Said McKinley, and that some other person
m.ay be put in his place. We would recommend Joseph Reed
Esqr., Robert Smith, Samuel Crow and John Lusk, as persons

fit for that office. Finally we humbly beg that your Honors
will take this our prayer under your serious Consideration, and
redress our grievances; and we, your petitioners, as in duty
bound, Shall ever pray —
