Book excerpt: Excerpt from Addresses Delivered at the Celebration of the One Hundred and Fiftieth Anniversary of the Battle of Bushy Run, August 5th and 6th, 1913 In 1763, Pontiac, Chief of 'the Ottawas, by far the shrewd est and most powerful'leader the Indian race has yet pro duced, united the northern and western tribes of his pe0p1e in a concerted effort to exterminate all white settlements be tween the lakes on the Northwest, the Ohio River on the South and East as far as Carlisle, at one blow. To this end, the great leader visited all the tribes of the Six Nations and, in the absence of calendars or the ability among the Indians to reckon time as we do, he gave to each of them a bundle of rods from which they were to extract a rod every morning and, when the last rod was drawn, they were to fall upon the white settlers nearest them, exterminate them and their families and besiege all intervening English forts. L the twelve larger forts in the territory west of Pittsburgh out lined above thus surrounded by the Indians, nine of them fell and most of their inmates were butchered in cold U. Western Pennsylvania, as far east as Carlisle, was plunged into a most deadly warfare. It was literally overrun and de vastated by the savage emissaries of the great leader.

Book excerpt: By 1763, the Indian tribes contained behind the western frontier of Brit.-Amer. settlement realized that they must band together to stop the encroachment of settlers. In early May 1763, the chief of the Ottawa nation, Pontiac, united warriors of the Ottawas, Wyandots, Chippewas, & Potawatomies for an assault on Detroit. Failing to take the fort, he settled down to a siege. Inspired by Pontiac¿s example, his cohorts captured the small garrisons of satellite forts about Detroit. The uprising spread to threaten the PA posts of Venango, Le Boeuf, & Presque Isle, & finally to reach Ft. Pitt, Ft. Bedford, & Ft. Ligonier. This document describes the attack on Ft. Pitt & the victory over the Indians by the soldiers led by Col. Henry Bouquet at the Battle of Bushy Run. Illustrations.
