Captain Taylor remained coored ur
within his pickets, until the 10th OF Septem-
Der, 1912, hoping that some assistance
would have arrived from Vincennes, but
none came, and he determined TO send two
Of his men to Vincennes by water, with a
letter for Gov. Harrison, though il was wea-
kening his force materially. He advised the
sending Of provisions under strong escort,
lest the Indians would attempt to cut them
off,
In Captain Taylor's despatch Of the 10th
Of September to Gov. Harrison at Vinccnnes,
he advised that an expedition against the
Prophet should be provided with every
thing, as he believed that every inch OF
ground between Fort Harrison and the Pro-
phet's Town would be disputed by them.
On the 18th Of September, 1872, Captain
Taylor, finding that the men, whom he had
sent on the 10Th to Vincennes by water,
were compelled to return, owing to the riv-
er being so well guarded, despatched his Or
derly-sergeant and one private through the
woods with letter to Governor Harrison.
These last messengers got through safely,
though they were entirely ignorant OF the
country. The first messengers found that
the Indians had built a fire on the bank Of
the river just below the fort, and had ca
noe ready to push out and cut off any canoe
that might attempt to pass the fire.
On the afternoon of the 18th of Septem
Der, 1912, Col Russell fortunately reached
the Fort al the head of several companies Q
Rangers and Indiana militia, and relieved
the garrison, which was in starving condl
ton. Several wagons loaded with provi
sions had been previously sent on iron
Vlncennes to Fort Harrison under an escor
of Ii regular troops, commanded by Lieut.
Fairbanks, but they were surprised, and al
slain but three
