CORNSTALK'S FAME AND DEATH
AT POINT PLEASANT
rpVEN if the Shawm ail not given
k-j to history a Tecur . they would
be well represented it the Indian hall
of fame by Cornstal He rose to
greatness in the Baith of Point Pleas
ant during Lord Dunmmv s war in
1774. That was the first •■All-American”
engagement—Shawnee Italians led by
Cornstalk against native frontiersmen
commanded by Col. Andy I^ewis.
On the evening before the battle the
Shawnee chief, knowing that be was
already outnumbered and that another
army was marching against him, of¬
fered to cross the Ohio alone and make
overtures for peace. He was overruled
by his warriors. “It is well,” he said.
“If you are resolved to fight, then fight
you shall. But if any warrior attempts
to run away I will kill him with my
own hand.”
Early the next morning he attacked.
It was a desperate all-day battle.
Cornstalk was everywhere, encourag¬
ing his warriors. Once, true to his
threat, he cut down with his toma¬
hawk a skulker. Then Lewis out
flanked him. The chief skillfully with¬
drew his forces, leaving the white man
in possession of the field, but at the
cost of 75 killed and 150 wounded.
When Lord Dunmore offered to
make peace, Cornstalk called a council j
of his chiefs. “You would not make '
peace before Point Pleasant. What is •
your voice now With two armies of the j
Long Knives pressing upon us?” he de¬
manded. “If it is for war, lot us first
kill our women and children, then go
out and fight like men until we, too,
are killed.” The Shawnees were silent.
Cornstalk dashed his hatchet into the
council post. “You act like children!”
he exclaimed. “I will go and.make
peace myself.” So he went alone to
Chillieothe and signed the treaty.
He never broke it. In 1777 he went
to the American fort at Point Pleas¬
ant and warned the settlers that lie
might not be able to restrain his rest¬
less warriors. The commandant de¬
tained him and his son, Ellinipsico, as
hostages.
One day some roving Indians am¬
bushed and killed a settler. Declaring
that the Shawnees had planned the
ambush, a party of whites rushed to
the cabin where they were held pris¬
oners.
Cornstalk heard their angry cries
outside the door. He knew that the
end had come. “My son,” he said to
Ellinipsico, who was badly frightened,
“the Great Spirit has seen fit that we
should die together. It is well. Let
us die like men and Shawnee war¬
riors.”
Rising to his feet, he faced the door.
As the infuriated settlers threw it
open the old chief drew himself up
proudly and opened wide his arms. A
second later he sank to the floor,
pierced through the breast, by seven
bullets. Point Pleasant had brought
liipi both fame and death.
STORIES OF
QREAT INDIANS

JOSEPH BRANT, WHO WAS PRE¬
SENTED AT COURT
/CAMPBELL was a better poet thau
VJ historian. For Joseph Brant (Thay
eudanegea—“He Places Together Two
Belts”), chief of the Mohawks, had no
part in the famous Wyoming valley
massacre in Pennsylvania in 1778, al¬
though lie did lead the Indians at two
others equally bad—Minisink and
Cherry valley.
Through the friendship of Sir Wil¬
liam Johnson, young Thayendanegea
was sent to Dr. Eleazer Wheelock’s
school in Connecticut. He returned to
Johnson hall and became Sir William's
assistant and interpreter.
At the outbreak of the Revolution
the Iroquois were wavering between
joining the British and the Americans.
Doctor Wheelock wrote to his former i
pupil, presenting every argument in
favor of the Americans. “I well re- J
member the days in your home,” re- \
plied Brant, “And especially do I re- j
member the family prayers and how
you prayed that we might live as
good subjects to fear God and honor i
the king!” |
Brant went to England in 1775. He
was presented to the king and, al- |
though he wore the costume of his
people, his gracious manners and per- t
feet English made him a favorite in |
court circles. Before he left London,
he had promised to lead 8,000 war¬
riors into the field under the British
flag.
Although hfe name became a word j
of terror along the New York frontier, l
he was not wholly merciless. Once j
he Vroman, captured whom an he sent old into friend the named woods j
,
to get some birchbark. few hoping hours that later be j
would escape. i
Vroman returned with the bark—which
Brant did not want. “You had a j
chance to escape, but you were too
big a fool to take it. So now I shall
have to take you to Canada as a
t
prisoner,” exclaimed the Mohawk chief j
with much disgust. Brant-j
After the Revolution ended
remained in Canada, where he was i
granted a pension by the British and !
given a large estate in Ontario. Here j j
he held “barbaric court with a retinue
of ,‘io negro servants, surrounded by
gay soldiers, cavaliers in powdered
wigs and all the motley assemblage
of that picturesque era,” and here he
died November 24, 1807.

Tifton-r-Unless the tobacco crop in
the territory immediately surrounding
Tifton gets rain within the next few
days, it will be almost a total loss. It
has been a little more than three weeks
since a good rain fell here, and it has
been too dry to put out plants. Many
plants put out earlier died. Perhaps
the most serious loss, however, is the
oat crop, which matured about three
weeks early this year, just in time to
be caught by the dry weather. Later
sowings did not get high enough to cut
unless they were treated with nitrate
of soda, and early sowing that reached
good heights, failed to fill out when
the dry weather came. Last year's oat
crop was bountiful, hut there was little
sale for it. Oats are relied on by many
farmers as a fill-in feed between corn
crops and the almost total loss of the
crop is a serious one.
Atlanta—Lindsey Hurt, Jr., two
year-old son of Mf. and Mrs. Sherwood
L. Hurt, of th.'s city, was dead here to¬
day from bichloride of mercury pois¬
oning. The child secured a box of the
mercury tablets when left alone for a
moment in a room. As his mother re¬
turned he was placing the poison in
his mouth. She sprang to his side and
removed the tablet, hut part of it had
been swallowed and all efforts to save
him were unavailing.
Dawson—Several solid car loads of
lettuce have been shipped by a local
firm. Lettuce as a commercial crop is
a new addition to the agricultural out¬
put of this fertile location, but it has
proved a highly profitable one and is
now regarded as a fixture in the farm
activities.
Jaskson—Growers of strawberries in
the Jackson territory arc now begin¬
ning to ship the berries to market.
Shipments so far have been made to
Atlanta by express, but buyers who
have been handling the Florida crop
will come to Jackson within a few days
and buy in large lots. A price of 2u
cents per quart is being paid for the
strawberries shipped to Atlanta dealers.
Monticello—Last year Mr. W. R.
Turk, a thrifty truck farmer of Mon
tic ’lo, shipped a good number of
crates of tomatoes to Tampa, Florida,
which were sold at a profit to him. He
expects to do the same stunt this sum¬
mer, only an a larger scale. In addition
to his tomato crop he will try his luck
Irish potatoes for export.
