The battle of Wisconsin Heights,
between Black Hawk and his trib-
esmea and the whites was fought
on July 81, 1882, a. short distance
south of Sank City. Attorney
Charles N. Brown of Madison has
spent considerable time in locat-
ing the route of the Indians after
they crossed the Mississippi river,
from Iowa into Illinois, until they
reached the Wisconsin but from the
Wisconsin to the Mississippi the
trail of the fleeing savages has
never been definitely located.
There were no white inhabitants
in the region at the. time, the
streams and hills were not named,
hence it was difficult to make clear
the course taken. writers with
the white army are very indefinite
as to the route.
N. B. Hood of Spring, Green says
that Samuel Huntley, the first per-
manent settler in his neighborhood
told him many years ago that
Black Hawk camped theinight after
crossing the Wisconsin about %
rods north of where Mr. Hood now
lives, in the town offspring Green,
the location being near the center
of section 20, about one and one
half miles east of the Richland
county line. Mr.. Huntley obtain
