SIMON kENTON. THE AMERl-
CAN MAZEPPA

Second only 70 the name Of Daniel
Boone-Whose life he once sayet-is
written IN the annals of Kentucky the
name OF Simon keuron. kenton was
a Virglnian Who served as a scout IN
Lord Duumores war shortly before
the outbreak of the Revolution and
who crossed over the mountains into
the Dark aud Bloody Ground Of Ken
tucky in search OF adventure. His ex.
plolts there soon won for him the I'M
diving hatred Of the Indians and no
less than eight times he was captured
by them and sentenced to death.
In 177s Kenion with two compan-
ions went north into Ohio to spy upon
a tribe at war with the whites. While
returning. they came upon a herd OF
Indian horses. The kentuckians re-
solved TO take some Of the animals
along as trophies OF the successful ex-
peditlon. The Indians quickly discov-
cred the theft and overlook the scouts
just before they crossed the Ohio
river.
one OF the Kentuckians was killed,
another escaped but kenton was taken
prisoner.
"You steal Injun hossi" they taunt-
ed him. "All right. we give you ride
on himw
So they tied the scout on Wild
young horse and set il free In the for
est. He finally was taken from the
horses back more dead than alive
At the first village the Indians
reached. they condemned the scout to
run the gantlet. When the signal was
given, Kenton sprang through the line
OF warriors. armed with clubs and
hatchets, and reached the council
house, his goal, almost untouched.
Near Zanesheld preparations were
made to burn him at the stake, but the
arrival OF Simon Glrty, the white
renegade" who recognized kenton as
an old friend, saved him.
His freedom was short-lived. Three
weeks later the Indians again voted
TO put him 70 death. Again he was
saved by a friend-Chief Logan. the
noted orator OF the Cayugas. When
the Sandsky towns were reached. the
Indians held a council and once more
cecreed the death penalty. kenton
was tied TO the stake. Just as the
torch was being applied. a British OF
ficer appeared and demanded the sur
render Of their prisoner TO his com.
mander at Detroit.
Kenton was kept captive in Detroit
until 1719. when through the aid OF an
Indian traders wife he escaped "a
Kentucky where he died In 1885.
