On the 7th of July, 1838, he was appointed colo nel of the 8th infantry, the rank he now occupies in the line of the army. After service on the northern frontier, and an elabo rate pursuit of the famous Johnson, the chief of the Thousand Isles, and service everywhere, from the foot of Champ] ain to Detroit, Colonel Worth was sent west ward with his regiment, and in the fall and winter of 1840 he was sent to Florida. General Armistead was then in command, but in May, 1841, Colonel Worth was plac...ed in command. Proceeding from Fort Brooke, fampa Bay, westward, he occupied almost the whole country; and on the 17th of April, 1842, forced the In dians to an engagement at Pilaklaklaha, near the St. John s. The American loss was not great; but the enemy, already morally defeated by Taylor s victory at Okee-Chobee, from which they had not recovered, were totally defeated. For this he received the brevet of brigadier-general, with rank from the 1st of March, 1 842. He subsequently served in Florida, but achieved but little, because the Indians would show him no front.
