41 General Wayne and the Greenville Treaty. All efforts of Governor St. Clair to make peace with the Indians failed. The military expeditions sent out ajrainst the Indians were fail- ures or disasters, so that in 1794 Indian ali'airs were in a very critical condition. On August 20, 1794, General Wayne near the Falls of the Maumee defeated the Indians. He says: "The enemy were routed from their position and driven more than two miles through the woods. The savage hordes with their British and Ca...nadian allies abandoned them- selves to flight and dispersed with terror and dismay, leaving our vic- torious army in full and quiet possession of the field of battle. " General Wayne returned to Greenville for the winter. During the winter, parties of Indians from several different tribes visited General Wayne and signed preliminary articles of peace. At Greenville, August 3, 1795, General Wayne concluded a treaty of peace with the Wyandots, Ottawas, Chippewas, Sacs, Eel Rivers, Kas- kaskias, Kickapoos, Pottawattomies, Weas, Miamis and Shawnees by which old boundary lines, including all of what is now Ohio, were con- firmed, and for "the same considerations, and as an evidence of returning friendship, and to provide for that convenient intercourse which will be beneficial to both parties, the said Indian tribes do also cede to the United States certain pieces of land, to-wit, one piece six miles square at the old Wea towns on the Wabash, and fourteen other pieces of land in the Northwest Territory.
