On the evening of 3 November, St. Clair's
force established a camp on a high hill near
the headwaters of the Wabash River. An
Indian force consisting of around 1,000
warriors, led by Little Turtle and Blue
Jacket, waited in the woods until dawn, when
the men stacked their weapons and paraded to
their morning meals.
Little Turtle directed the first attack at
the militia, who fled across a stream
without their weapons. The regulars
immediately formed battle lines and fired a
volley into the Indians, forcing them back.
Colonel William Darke ordered his battalion
to fix bayonets and charge the main Indian
position. Little Turtle's forces gave way
and retreated to the woods, only to encircle
Darke's battalion and destroy it.
After three hours of fighting, St. Clair
called together the remaining officers and,
faced with total annihilation, decided to
attempt one last bayonet charge to get
through the Indian line and escape. Supplies
and wounded were left in camp. Little
Turtle's Army allowed the bayonets to pass
through, but this time the men ran for Fort
Jefferson.They were pursued by Indians for
about three miles before the latter broke
off pursuit and returned to loot the camp. |
