content: Composite image of Tecumseh or Tecumtha (The One Who Passes Across Intervening Space From One Point To Another) wearing a peace medal, taken from Benson John Lossing's Pictorial Fieldbook of the War of 1812.  According to a note by Lossing, he made the "portrait" of Tecumseh from a Pierre le Dru's pencil sketch of his head and cap and a rough drawing showing him in full military dress, made at Malden shortly after the surrender of Detroit.    Original engraving published in Benson John Lossing, The Pictorial Fieldbook of the War of 1812, New York: Harper & Brothers, 1868, p. 283.
