The fight drifted around, and R------ alongwith it; and by and by he reached a spot where Wheatley lay dead, withhis head on Tecumseh's breast. Tecumseh had been shot with a rifle, but, before expiring, appeared to have shot Wheatley with a pistol, which hestill held in his hand. R------ affirms that Tecumseh was flayed by theKentucky men on the spot, and his skin converted into razor-straps. Ihave left out the most striking point of the narrative, after all, asR------ told it, viz. That soon a...fter Wheatley passed him, he suddenlyceased to hear Tecumseh's voice ringing through the forest, as he gavehis orders. He was at the battle of New Orleans, and gave me the storyof it from beginning to end; but I remember only a few particulars inwhich he was personally concerned. He confesses that his hair bristledupright--every hair in his head--when he heard the shouts of the Britishsoldiers before advancing to the attack. His uncomfortable sensationslasted till he began to fire, after which he felt no more of them.
