  • Destruction of Delaware and Miami Towns in the Aftermath of the Battle of Tippecanoe: the Impact of Perspective on History
    Destruction of Delaware and Miami Towns in the Aftermath of the Battle of Tippecanoe: The Impact of Perspective on History WILLIAM W. GIFFIN Indiana State University Smoke rose from burning Delaware and Miami towns along the Mississinewa River of northeastern Indiana in mid-December 1812. The time was about a year after the Battle of Tippecanoe near Prophetstown on the upper Wabash River in the Indiana Territory. A military force repre­ senting the United States government was executing a de facto policy of burning dwellings, destroying stored grain, killing cattle, and confiscating horses of the Native American people in the Mississinewa valley. Mean­ while, some men of the towns, largely Miamis, gathered to confront the government's troops. There was a brief conflict resulting in casualties on both sides. Shortly afterwards, the government force's commander decided to order his men to return to their home base in Ohio instead of continuing their campaign of destruction in the Mississinewa valley. These events can be seen as part of the aftermath of the Battle of Tippecanoe in November 1811. William Henry Harrison, Governor of the Indiana Territory, led an army of about a thousand men on a long march up the Wabash River into the northern third of present Indiana. Harrison departed Vincennes, the territorial capital, on 26th September and arrived at Prophetstown on 6th November. Undoubtedly, the residents of Prophets- town saw the arrival of Harrison's army at Prophetstown as the culmination of an invasion of lands occupied by Native Americans. All Anglo- American settlements in the Indiana Territory were located in the southern third of present Indiana far from Prophetstown.

    2006. Proceedings of the Indiana Academy of Science 1 15(2): 103- 109 CURRENT STATUS OF FRESHWATER MUSSELS (ORDER UNIONOIDA) IN THE WABASH RIVER DRAINAGE OF INDIANA Brant E. Fisher: Indiana Department of Natural Resources, Atterbury Fish & Wildlife Area, 7970 South Rowe Street, P.O. Box 3000, Edinburgh, Indiana 46124 USA ABSTRACT. Seventy-five species of freshwater mussels (Order Unionoida) have historically inhabited the Wabash River drainage of Indiana. Nine of these species have always been restricted to Wabash River tributaries and never maintained reproducing populations in the mainstem Wabash River. Of the 66 re- maining species, 18 are currently considered extirpated from the entire drainage and 18 maintain repro- ducing populations only in Wabash River tributaries. Currently, 30 species maintain reproducing popula- tions in the mainstem Wabash River, which represents a 55% reduction in its freshwater mussel fauna. To date, the entire Wabash River drainage of Indiana has seen a 24% reduction in its freshwater mussel fauna.
