The mostdreadful anticipations of savage cruelty were indulged--the force ofBlack Hawk was greatly magnified--his thirst for vengeance upon thewhites was only to be appeased by blood--the state was actually invadedby a powerful and remorseless enemy--and memorials and petitions, for anarmed force to repulse the invaders and protect the frontiers, flowed inupon the Governor, from all quarters. Such was the excited state ofpublic feeling, such the force of public sentiment, that little time wasle...ft for Executive deliberation. Governor Reynolds issued hisproclamation, reiterating the dangers of the frontier, and calling for abody of the militia to march and protect it. A call under suchcircumstances was promptly responded to, and in a short time, a largebody of mounted volunteers, embracing many of the most respectable andinfluential citizens of Illinois, were in the vicinity of the invadingfoe, and ready for co-operation with the regular troops under GeneralAtkinson. A concentration of these two forces was made at Dixon's ferry, on Rock river, about thirty miles below the encampment of Black Hawk andhis party.
