ever, was not th practice ol 'lecum

ol the British, .fought against is in
1812. He natd the Americans, but
he fought aa a warrior, not as a
Thug.
In lSlJ, (Jol. Dudley, while at
tempting to reliav Fort Meigs,
where Gen Harrison wa besieged by
British and Indians, wa tlaled
wiih gieai slaughter. As usual th
Indian began killing th American
prisoners. General l'rootor, the
British commander, looked coolr on
and made no ffot to restrain them.
Suddenly a voic sounded lik a
clap ot thuiidet, and Tecuruieh mmta
led n a foaming horse, dashed
among the butcher. Two Indians
ware in th act ol killing a prisoner.
Spii ging from his horse, Tecuinseh
seized one Indian by the throat
and the other by the braasl and
threw them lo the ground.
Drawing tomahawk aud scalping
knife, he dar -d any Indian to touch
another prisoner. A cbiel disobeyed
aifd Tecuniseh brained him with his
tomahawk. The Indians sullenly de
sisti'd.
'What will become ol my Jndisns?"
he txclaitpcij. Then turning to
Proctor, w ho stood near, he sternly
demanded why h had not put a slop
