. History of Greene county, Illinois: its past and present. ng in the place.When the officers of the new territory reached the post, they found it inruins, and the inhabitants scattered throughout the country. Rebuild-ing, however, soon commenced, and ere long the town contained morehouses than before the fire, and many of them much better built. While this was being done, Indiana had passed to the second gradeof government, and through her General Assembly had obtained largetracts of land from the Indian tribes. To all this the celebrated Indian, Tecumthe or Tecumseh, vigorously protested, and it was the main causeof his attempts to unite the various Indian tribes in a conflict with thesettlers. To obtain a full account of these attempts, the workings of theBritish, and the signal failure, culminating in the death of Tecumseh atthe battle of the Thames, and the close of the war of 1812 in the Northwest, we will step aside in our story, and relate the principal events of his life, and his connection with this conflict.

His father, Puckeshinwa, was a member of the Kisopok tribe of the Swanoese nation, and hismother, Methontaske, was a member of the Turtle tribe of the samepeople. They removed from Florida about the middle of the last centuryto the birthplace of Tecumseh. In 1774, his father, who had risen to bechief, was slain at the battle of Point Pleasant, and not long after Tecum-seh, by his bravery, became the leader of his tribe. In 1795 he wasdeclared chief, and then lived at Deer Creek, near the site of thepresent City of Urbana. He remained here about one year, when hereturned to Piqua, and in 1798, he went to White River, Indiana. In1805, he and his brother, Laulewasikan (Open Door), who had announcedhimself as a prophet, went to a
