Chapter XXV: Naylor's Narrative

Text size

_--A description, of the battle by one of the volunteers._

An excellent portrait of Judge Isaac Naylor now hangs in the court room at Williamsport, Indiana. He was one of the first judges of the Montgomery circuit which formerly embraced both Warren and Benton. Naylor was born in Rockingham county, Virginia, in 1790, and removed to Clark county, Indiana, in 1805. In 1810 he made a journey to New Orleans on a flatboat. While preparing for college the Tippecanoe campaign came on, and he joined Harrison's army at Vincennes. His account of the battle is as follows:

"I became a volunteer member of a company of riflemen, and
on the 12th of September, 1811, we commenced our march
toward Vincennes, and arrived there in about six days,
marching about 120 miles. We remained there about a week and
took up the march to a point on the Wabash river, sixty
miles above, on the east bank of the river, where we erected
a stockade fort, which we named Fort Harrison. This was
three miles above where the city of Terre Haute now stands.
Col. Joseph H. Daviess, who commanded the dragoons, named
the fort. The glorious defense of this fort nine months
after by Captain Zachary Taylor was the first step in his
brilliant career that afterwards made him President of the
United States.

A few days later we took up the march again for the seat of Indian warfare, where we arrived on the evening of November 6th, 1811.

"When the army arrived in view of the Prophet's Town, an
Indian was seen coming toward General Harrison with a white
flag suspended on a pole. Here the army halted, and a parley
was had between General Harrison and an Indian delegation,
who assured the General that they desired peace, and
solemnly promised to meet him next day in council, to settle
the terms of peace and friendship between them and the
United States.

"General Marston G. Clark, who was then brigade major, and
Waller Taylor, one of the judges of the General Court of the
Territory of Indiana, and afterwards a Senator of the United
States from Indiana (one of the General's aides), were
ordered to select a place for the encampment, which they
did. The army then marched to the ground selected about
sunset. A strong guard was placed around the encampment,
commanded by Captain James Bigger and three lieutenants. The
troops were ordered to sleep on their arms. The night being
cold, large fires were made along the lines of encampment
and each soldier retired to rest, sleeping on his arms.

"Having seen a number of squaws and children at the town I
thought the Indians were not disposed to fight. About ten
o'clock at night Joseph Warnock and myself retired to rest,
he taking one side of the fire and I the other, the other
members of our company being all asleep. My friend Warnock
had dreamed, the night before, a bad dream which foreboded
something fatal to him or to some of his family, as he told
me. Having myself no confidence in dreams, I thought but
little about the matter, although I observed that he never
smiled afterwards.

"I awoke about four o'clock the next morning, after a sound
and refreshing sleep, having heard in a dream the firing of
guns and the whistling of bullets just before I awoke from
my slumber. A drizzling rain was falling and all things were
still and quiet throughout the camp. I was engaged in making
a calculation when I should arrive home.

"In a few moments I heard the crack of a rifle in the
direction of the point where now stands the Battle Ground
House, which is occupied by Captain DuTiel as a tavern. I
had just time to think that some sentinel was alarmed and
fired his rifle without a real cause, when I heard the crack
of another rifle, followed by an awful Indian yell all
around the encampment. In less than a minute I saw the
Indians charging our line most furiously and shooting a
great many rifle balls into our camp fires, throwing the
live coals into the air three or four feet high.

"At this moment my friend Warnock was shot by a rifle ball
through his body. He ran a few yards and fell dead on the
ground. Our lines were broken and a few Indians were found
on the inside of the encampment. In a few moments they were
all killed. Our lines closed up and our men in their proper
places. One Indian was killed in the back part of Captain
Geiger's tent, while he was attempting to tomahawk the
Captain.

"The sentinels, closely pursued by the Indians, came to the
lines of the encampment in haste and confusion. My brother,
William Naylor, was on guard. He was pursued so rapidly and
furiously that he ran to the nearest point on the left
flank, where he remained with a company of regular soldiers
until the battle was near its termination. A young man,
whose name was Daniel Pettit, was pursued so closely and
furiously by an Indian as he was running from the guard line
to our lines, that to save his life he cocked his rifle as
he ran and turning suddenly around, placed the muzzle of his
gun against the body of the Indian and shot an ounce ball
through him. The Indian fired his gun at the same instant,
but it being longer than Pettit's, the muzzle passed by him
and set fire to a handkerchief which he had tied around his
head. The Indians made four or five most fierce charges on
our lines, yelling and screaming as they advanced, shooting
balls and arrows into our ranks. At each charge they were
driven back in confusion, carrying off their dead and
wounded as they retreated.

"Colonel Owen, of Shelby County, Kentucky, one of General
Harrison's volunteer aides, fell early in action by the side
of the General. He was a member of the legislature at the
time of his death. Colonel Daviess was mortally wounded
early in the battle, gallantly charging the Indians on foot
with his sword and pistols, according to his own request. He
made this request three times of General Harrison, before he
was permitted to make the charge. The charge was made by
himself and eight dragoons on foot near the angle formed by
the left flank and front line of the encampment. Colonel
Daviess lived about thirty-six hours after he was wounded,
manifesting his ruling passions in life--ambition,
patriotism and an ardent love of military glory. During the
last hours of his life he said to his friends around him
that he had but one thing to regret--that he had military
talents; that he was about to be cut down in the meridian of
life without having an opportunity of displaying them for
his own honor, and the good of his country. He was buried
alone with the honors of war near the right flank of the
army, inside of the lines of the encampment, between two
trees. On one of these trees the letter 'D' is now visible.
Nothing but the stump of the other remains. His grave was
made here, to conceal it from the Indians. It was filled up
to the top with earth, and then covered with oak leaves. I
presume the Indians never found it. This precautionary act
was performed as a mark of peculiar respect for a
distinguished hero and patriot of Kentucky.

"Captain Spencer's company, of mounted riflemen composed the
right flank of the army. Captain Spencer and both his
lieutenants were killed. John Tipton was elected and
commissioned as captain of this company in one hour after
the battle, as a reward for his cool and deliberate heroism
displayed during the action. He died at Logansport in 1839,
having been twice elected Senator of the United States from
the State of Indiana.

"The clear, calm voice of General Harrison was heard in
words of heroism in every part of the encampment during the
action. Colonel Boyd behaved very bravely after repeating
these words: "Huzza! My sons of gold, a few more fires and
victory will be ours!"

"Just after daylight the Indiana retreated across the
prairie toward their town, carrying off their wounded. This
retreat was from the right flank of the encampment,
commanded by Captains Spencer and Robb, having retreated
from the other portions of the encampment a few minutes
before. As their retreat became visible, an almost deafening
and universal shout was raised by our men. 'Huzza! Huzza!
Huzza!' This shout was almost equal to that of the savages
at the commencement of the battle; ours was the shout of
victory, theirs was the shout of ferocious but disappointed
hope.

"The morning light disclosed the fact that the killed and
wounded of our army, numbering between eight and nine
hundred men, amounted to one hundred and eighty-eight.
Thirty-six Indians were found near our lines. Many of their
dead were carried off during the battle. This fact was
proved by the discovery of many Indian graves recently made
near their town. Ours was a bloody victory, theirs a bloody
defeat.

"Soon after breakfast an Indian chief was discovered on the
prairie, about eighty yards from our front line, wrapped in
a piece of white cloth. He was found by a soldier by the
name of Miller, a resident of Jeffersonville, Indiana. The
Indian was wounded in one of his legs, the ball having
penetrated his knee and passed down his leg, breaking the
bone as it passed. Miller put his foot against him and he
raised up his head and said: 'Don't kill me, don't kill me.'
At the same time five or six regular soldiers tried to shoot
him, but their muskets snapped and missed fire. Major Davis
Floyd came riding toward him with dragoon sword and
pistols and said he would show them how to kill Indians,
when a messenger came from General Harrison commanding that
he should be taken prisoner. He was taken into camp, where
the surgeons dressed his wounds. Here he refused to speak a
word of English or tell a word of truth. Through the medium
of an interpreter he said that he was a friend to the white
people and that the Indians shot him while he was coming to
the camp to tell General Harrison that they were about to
attack the army. He refused to have his leg amputated,
though he was told that amputation was the only means of
saving his life. One dogma of Indian superstition is that
all good and brave Indians, when they die, go to a
delightful region, abounding with deer and other game, and
to be a successful hunter he should have all his limbs, his
gun and his dog. He therefore preferred death with all his
limbs to life without them. In accordance with his request
he was left to die, in company with an old squaw, who was
found in the Indian town the next day after he was taken
prisoner. They were left in one of our tents.

"At the time this Indian was taken prisoner, another Indian,
who was wounded in the body, rose to his feet in the middle
of the prairie and began to walk towards the woods on the
opposite side. A number of regular soldiers shot at him but
missed him. A man who was a member of the same company with
me, Henry Huckleberry, ran a few steps into the prairie and
shot an ounce ball through his body and he fell dead near
the margin of the woods. Some Kentucky volunteers went
across the prairie immediately, and scalped him, dividing
his scalp into four pieces, each one cutting a hole in each
piece, putting the ramrod through the hole, and placing his
part of the scalp just behind the first thimble of his gun,
near its muzzle. Such was the fate of nearly all of the
Indians found on the battle ground, and such was the
disposition of their scalps.

"The death of Owen, and the fact that Daviess was mortally
wounded, with the remembrance also that a large portion of
Kentucky's best blood had been shed by the Indians, must be
their apology for this barbarous conduct. Such conduct will
be excused by all who witnessed the treachery of the
Indians, and saw the bloody scenes of this battle.

"Tecumseh being absent at the time of the battle, a chief
called White Loon was the chief commander of the Indians. He
was seen in the morning after the battle, riding a large
white horse in the woods across the prairie, where he was
shot at by a volunteer named Montgomery, who is now living
in the southwest part of this state. At the crack of his
rifle the horse jumped as if the ball had hit him. The
Indian rode off toward the town and we saw him no more.
During the battle the Prophet was safely located on a hill,
beyond the reach of our balls, praying to the Great Spirit
to give victory to the Indians, having previously assured
them that the Great Spirit would change our powder into
ashes and sand.

"We had about forty head of beef cattle when we came to the
battle. They all ran off the night of the battle, or they
were driven off by the Indians, so that they were all lost.
We received rations for two days on the morning after the
action. We received no more rations until the next Tuesday
evening, being six days afterwards. The Indians having
retreated to their town, we performed the solemn duty of
consigning to their graves our dead soldiers, without
shrouds or coffins. They were placed in graves about two
feet deep, from five to ten in each grave.

"General Harrison having learned that Tecumseh was expected
to return from the south with a number of Indians whom he
had enlisted in his cause, called a council of his officers,
who advised him to remain on the battlefield and fortify his
camp by a breastwork of logs, about four feet high. This
work was completed during the day and all the troops were
placed immediately behind each line of the work, when they
were ordered to pass the watchword from right to left every
five minutes, so that no man was permitted to sleep during
the night. The watchword on the night before the battle was
'Wide-awake, wide-awake.' To me, it was a long, cold,
cheerless night.

"On the next day the dragoons went to Prophet's Town, which
they found deserted by all the Indians, except an old squaw,
whom they brought into the camp and left her with the
wounded chief before mentioned. The dragoons set fire to the
town and it was all consumed, casting up a brilliant light
amid the darkness of the ensuing night. I arrived at the
town when it was about half on fire. I found large
quantities of corn, beans and peas, I filled my knapsack
with these articles and carried them to the camp and divided
them with the members of our mess, consisting of six men.
Having these articles of food, we declined eating horse
flesh, which was eaten by a large portion of our men."
