SHAWNEE CHEIF TECUMSEH DEFENDS THE WHITES AT FORT MEIGS Art by John Emmins 1894 Print
This is a Wood Engraving / illustration / print that has been taken from a book dated 1894 and is ready for framing. Measures approximately 11 1/2 x 9 inches.
One of the most famous incidents in Tecumseh's life occurred after the battle. American prisoners had been taken to the nearby ruins of Fort Miami. When a group of Indians began killing prisoners, Tecumseh rushed in and stopped the slaughter. Tecumseh's defense of the American prisoners became a cornerstone of his legend, the ultimate proof of his inherent nobility. Some accounts said Tecumseh rebuked General Procter for failing to protect the prisoners, though this might not have happened.
