About: Logan's raid

An Entity of Type: societal event, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Logan's raid was a military expedition in October, 1786 by a Kentucky militia force under General Benjamin Logan against several Shawnee settlements along the Little Miami and Mad Rivers in the Ohio Country. The villages were occupied primarily by noncombatants, since most warriors had left to defend the villages of Chief Little Turtle from a separate force moving up the Wabash River under the command of General George Rogers Clark. Logan seized and burned thirteen villages (full of mostly women and children), destroying the food supplies and killing or capturing many, including the aged Chief Moluntha who was soon murdered by one of Logan's men, reportedly in retaliation for the Battle of Blue Licks in the American Revolutionary War.

  • Logan's raid was a military expedition in October, 1786 by a Kentucky militia force under General Benjamin Logan against several Shawnee settlements along the Little Miami and Mad Rivers in the Ohio Country. The villages were occupied primarily by noncombatants, since most warriors had left to defend the villages of Chief Little Turtle from a separate force moving up the Wabash River under the command of General George Rogers Clark. Logan seized and burned thirteen villages (full of mostly women and children), destroying the food supplies and killing or capturing many, including the aged Chief Moluntha who was soon murdered by one of Logan's men, reportedly in retaliation for the Battle of Blue Licks in the American Revolutionary War. Moluntha had recently signed the Treaty of Fort Finney at the beginning of the year, and had raised an American flag over his lodge. When Logan's force attacked, he had calmly surrendered himself and his family, holding a copy of the treaty as a testament to his peaceful relationship with the United States. Militia Colonel Hugh McGary had participated in the Battle of Blue Licks in August 1782, and when the weak resistance offered by the Shawnee villagers had ended, he approached the elderly chief and asked if he had been present at the battle. "Moluntha had not been there, but he misunderstood the question and seemed to indicate otherwise. McGary, a hotheaded soldier whose irresponsibility had been a cause of that defeat, angrily felled the old chief with a hatchet and, as he tried to regain his feet, killed him with a second blow and scalped him." Logan's raid and the death of their chief angered the Shawnees, who retaliated by further increasing their attacks on the whites, escalating the war. (en)
  • Le raid de Logan est une expédition militaire du début de la guerre amérindienne du Nord-Ouest. À l'automne 1786, sous les ordres de George Rogers Clark, le général Benjamin Logan mène une force de soldats fédéraux et de miliciens montés du Kentucky contre plusieurs villages shawnees dans la vallée de l'Ohio, le long de la rivière Mad, essentiellement protégés par des populations non combattantes puisque la plupart des guerriers sont partis défendre le village du chef Michikinikwa, menacé par une autre force remontant la rivière Wabash sous le commandement du général George Rogers Clark. Logan incendia treize villages shawnees, détruisit leurs vivres, et tua et captura de nombreux Amérindiens, dont le vieux chef de la tribu, Moluntha, qui fut rapidement assassiné par l'un des hommes de Logan.

Осенью 1786 года, следуя указаниям генерала Джорджа Роджерса Кларка, генерал Бенджамин Логан повел отряд федеральных войск и ополчения Кентукки на селения шауни в долине Огайо, вдоль реки Мэд. В этих селениях тогда почти не было воинов, которые были заняты нападениями на поселения белых в Кентукки. Логан сжег индейские селения и запасы пищи, убил и захватил в плен значительное число индейцев. Среди пленных был и Молунта, вождь мекоче, одной из пяти групп шауни. Молунта был позднее убит одним из людей Логана, как считалось, в отмщение за потери в битве при Блю Ликс во время Войны за независимость. Рейд Логана и смерть их вождя разъярила шауни, которые ответили ещё более яростными атаками на белых, что привело к дальнейшей эскалации войны. (ru)
