But the latter was soon disabled by sickness, and the chief command devolved upon General Atkinson.
Seeing this formidable force arrayed against him, Black Hawk determined to retreat to the north and save himself by crossing the Mississippi river, but he was overtaken on the banks of the Wisconsin, at Blue Mounds, by General Henry's division, and a battle ensued July 21st, in which he lost 50 men while crossing the river.
Black Hawk continued his retreat after the battle till he was again overt...aken, August 2d, near the mouth of Bad Ax river, in Wisconsin. A battle followed, in which nearly the entire remnant of Black Hawk's army were killed or drowned in attempting to cross the river. Black Hawk fled to Prairie La Cross, a Winnebago village, where he surrendered himself to Chaetar and One-eyed Decora, two Winnebago chiefs, who delivered him up to General Street, the Indian agent at Prai- rie du Chien, on the 27th of August.
As soon as the cholera had partially subsided among the troops of General Scott, he moved his quarters from Fort Dearborn to the banks of the Desplaines river, where, after his soldiers had sufficiently recruited, he sent the main body, under command of Colonel Cummings, to the present site of Beloit, then a deserted Winnebago village.* Here instructions came from the general in chief command for the army to march down Rock river to Fort Armstrong, on Rock Island, to which place General Scott with his staff had arrived by a hasty march across the country by way of Naperville.
