The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1932-08-12

The commander of the expedition was Vir-
ginian, Col. William Crawford, personal friend
of Washington who had won a reputation as a
brave and active officer in the Continental army
but who was utterly untitled for leadership
against such enemy as the trbesmen he was
ordered to crush. Crawford hoped to surprise
the Indians but enemy scouts discovered his
force soon after he started and Indian spies fol-
lowed every movement of his army.
On June Crawford reached one of the wy
andot towns but found it deserted. He marched
on to find another and encountered a small
force of Indians and Canadian rangers, under
the command of Captain Caldwell which had
been sent by the British in Detroit to aid the
Indians. There was a sharp skirmish with
neither side gaining any advantage, although
Crawford had the superiority in numbers. The
next morning, instead of forcing a battle and
crushing the enemy, Crawford's army lay idle.
Caldwell also was willing to delay proceedings
for he was expecting renforcements. They
came in the afternoon in the person of lao
Shawnee warriors.
AT the sight of this, Crawfcrds militia began
to waver and Crawford decided that the only
course left for him to retire from the field.
That night his force began hurried and dis
orderly retreat. In the darkness the troops be-
came scattered and when morning came there
were only about 800 left together in one body.
David Williamson, perpetrator of the Gnaden-
huetten massacre, who was second in command
directed the retreat. If poetic justice had been
at work it would have been Williamson who
was missing and Crawford who was to lead the
disorganized remnants of the command back in
safety to Mngo Bottom.
But instead Colonel Crawford, Doctor knight,
the surgeon of the command, and nine others
were captured by the Indians. All, except Craw-
ford and Knight were killed at once but these
two were taken to a Delaware town for torture.
Crawford burned at the stake and Doctor
Knight forced to watch the sufferings of
his friend. Crawford is said to have appealed
in vain to Simon Girty, the white renegade among
the Indians, to end his sufferings by shooting
him, but Girty either could not or would not heed
his plea. Later Doctor Knight managed to escape
and after wandering in the woods fer 81 days
reached Fort Pitt in safety
Encouraged by their success the Indians ap-
peared in large numbers on the Upper Ohio and
fell upon the settlement of Hannastown, Pa.
which they burned and captured or killed 20 of
its inhabitants. Then the partisan Captains Nc
Kee and Caldwell assembled force of LOO
Indians. the greatest single body of savages
brought together during the Revolution, for an
attack on Wheeling. But while they were march
ing thither they became alarmed by a report
that George Rogers Clark was leading his ''Long
Knives again to attack the Shawnee towns
So Mckee and Caldwell marched to meet him
but upon reaching the Shawn towns discov-
cred that the alarm of those Indians was
groundless. it having originated in the appear
ance of an armed galley-boat at the mouth Of

Bench Warrant Issued
For Jack johnson

LOS ANGELES.-A bench war;
rant for the arrest of Jack Johnson,
former worlds heavyweight boxing
champion, who is believed to be in
San Francisco, was issued today
when johnson failed to appear to
answer six wage claims against him.
When Johnsons case was called in
Municipal Judge G. A. Damon's
court, the negro's attorney produced
a telegram stating johnson was de-
tanned in San Francisco. Judge
Damon issued the bench warrant be-
cause of frequent continuances of
the case and set bail at $500.
The wage claims grew out of John
sons alleged failure to pay money
due former employees of his cafe.
