On the morning of the sixth of November, an army of three hundredIndians composed of Miamis, Delawares, Shawnees and Potaw...atomi, commanded by the Little Turtle, attacked a party of about one hundredKentucky militia under the walls of Fort St. Clair, situated on the lineof march from Fort Washington to the Miami villages. They were under thecommand of Major John Adair, afterwards governor of the State ofKentucky.
