June 10, 1538: Mary of Guise landed in Fife on June 10, 1538 and was formally received by James. They were married in person a few days later at St Andrews. James's mother Margaret Tudor wrote to Henry VIII in July, "I trust she will prove a wise Princess. I have been much in her company, and she bears herself very honourably to me, with very good entertaining."[14] The Duke of Guise sent her masons and miners, an armourer, and she had a French painter to decorate her palaces, Pierre Quesnel.[15][1]
June 10, 1539: Pope Paul III sends out letters to his Bishops calling for a delay in the start of the Council of Trent, which would turn out to be one of the major conclaves in the history of the Catholic Church. Pope Paul III is the Pope who is credited with starting a series of tribunals that became known as the Roman Inquisition or, more simply, The Inquisition. While the Inquisition was aimed at a variety of non-believers, over the centuries Jews, Marranos and Conversos suffered disproportionately under this scourge.[2]
1540: By 1540 Suleiman ruled half the civilized world and had the other half trying to buy him off. [3] Jews expelled from Naples.[4] All Jews are banished from Prague. Rifling appears in firearms.[5]
1540’s: In the 1540’s [Martin Luther] drove [the Jews] from many German towns.[4][6]
1540 to 1960 A.D.
June 10, 1540:– Thomas Cromwell is arrested. [8] Cromwell was arrested at a Privy Council meeting on charges of high treason, and Norfolk personally 'tore the St George from his neck’. [9]At a Council meeting on June 10, 1540, Cromwell was arrested and imprisoned in the Tower. A bill of attainder containing a long list of indictments, including treason, heresy, corruption, and plotting to marry Lady Mary Tudor, was introduced into the House of Lords a week later.[10]

Catherine's new-found ability to bear children, however, failed to improve her marriage. In 1538, at the age of nineteen, Henry had taken as his mistress the thirty-eight-year-old Diane de Poitiers, whom he adored for the rest of his life.[31] Even so, he respected Catherine's status as his consort.[32] When King Francis I died in 1547 Catherine became queen consort of France. She was crowned in the basilica of Saint-Denis on June 10, 1549.
Queen of France[edit]
http://bits.wikimedia.org/static-1.24wmf5/skins/common/images/magnify-clip.png
Catherine de' Medici, as Queen of France. "Her mouth is too large and her eyes too prominent and colourless for beauty", wrote a Venetian envoy as Catherine approached forty, "but a very distinguished-looking woman, with a shapely figure, a beautiful skin and exquisitely shaped hands".[33]
Henry allowed Catherine almost no political influence as queen.[34] Although she sometimes acted as regent during his absences from France, her powers were strictly nominal.[35] Henry gave the Château of Chenonceau, which Catherine had wanted for herself, to Diane de Poitiers, who took her place at the centre of power, dispensing patronage and accepting favours.[36]

Silver jeton on Catherine de'Médici
The imperial ambassador reported that in the presence of guests, Henry would sit on Diane's lap and play the guitar, chat about politics, or fondle her breasts.[37] Diane never regarded Catherine as a threat. She even encouraged the king to sleep with her and father more children. In 1556, Catherine nearly died giving birth to twin daughters. Surgeons saved her life by breaking the legs of one of the two babies, who died in her womb.[38] The surviving daughter died seven weeks later. Catherine had no more children.
Henry's reign also saw the rise of the Guise brothers, Charles, who became a cardinal, and Henry's boyhood friend Francis, who became Duke of Guise.[39] Their sister Mary of Guise had married James V of Scotland in 1538 and was the mother of Mary, Queen of Scots. At the age of five and a half, Mary was brought to the French court, where she was promised to the Dauphin, Francis.[40] Catherine brought her up with her own children at the French court, while Mary of Guise governed Scotland as her daughter's regent.[41] [12]
June 10, 1560: The sudden death of Mary of Guise in Edinburgh Castle on June 10, 1560 paved the way for an end to hostilities, the signing of the Treaty of Edinburgh, and the withdrawal of French and English troops from Scotland. [13]
When seven Bishops, including the Archbishop of Canterbury, submitted a petition requesting the reconsideration of the King's religious policies, they were arrested and tried for seditious libel.[102] Public alarm increased when Queen Mary gave birth to a Roman Catholic son and heir, James Francis Edward on June 10, of that year.[103] When James's only possible successors were his two Protestant daughters, Anglicans could see his pro-Catholic policies as a temporary phenomenon, but when the Prince's birth opened the possibility of a permanent Catholic dynasty, such men had to reconsider their position.[104] Threatened by a Catholic dynasty, several influential Protestants claimed the child was "supposititious" and had been smuggled into the Queen's bedchamber in a warming pan.[105] They had already entered into negotiations with William, Prince of Orange, when it became known the Queen was pregnant, and the birth of James's son reinforced their convictions.[106]

John Churchill had been a member of James's household for many years, but defected to William of Orange in 1688.[14]
June 10, 1584: The Duke of Anjou dies at Chateau-Thierry, whither he had retired in consequence of the fresh misunderstanding between him and the king his brother.
On the same day Sir Francis Throckmorton is executed at London, as guilty of conspiracy against the state, and in favour of Mary.
About the same time the Earl of Northumberland is again arrested, and sent to the Tower of London, on account of the correspondence formerly held by him with Throckmorton and Lord Paget. [15]
June 10, 1624: During the Dutch War for Independence France and the Netherlands sign the Treaty of Compiegne which enabled France to supply the Dutch with financial aid in their fight to gain independence from Spain. Since Protestant Holland’s victory over Catholic Spain was in the best interest of the Jews since the former had provided a safe haven and the latter followed a ruinous policy of anti-Semitism.[16]
June 10, 1648: 1648: Start of the Cossacks ten year war with the Poles also known as the Chmielniki Uprising. The Jews were caught between the Russian Orthodox Cossacks who hated the Roman Catholic Poles who had been occupying their land. Jews had served as agents for the Polish nobles managing their lands and collecting the taxes. For this, and the fact that they were Jews, the Cossack hated them. At the same time, the Poles betrayed the Jews, in many instances turning them over to the Cossacks thinking that this would mollify the angry horde. It didn't but from the Jews' point of view that really did not matter since they were killed regardless of what happened. In the ten tumultuous years that followed, over seven hundred Jewish communities were destroyed and between one hundred and five hundred thousand Jews lost their lives. The ensuing sense of helplessness contributed to the rise of the messianic movement which soon followed.[17]

June 10, 1755: Braddock used Fort Cumberland as his base of operations during his flawed15 and ultimately disastrous campaign against the French at Fort Duquesne. Braddock‘s army set off from Fort Cumberland to advance against Fort Duquesne on June 10, 1755,[21] generally following the Ohio Company road.[22]
a copy of an early map of ―Fort Cumberland and Vicinity‖ from
Winsor‘s 1887 ―Narrative and Critical History of America‖. It shows a blockhouse and the
Ohio Company‘s ―New Store‖ on the Virginia (now West Virginia) side of the Potomac River,
and Fort Cumberland on the other.[23]
[24] This 2010 photo shows a plaque at the Fort Cumberland site.[25]
June 10, 1755: Why Braddock did not take the path along Jennings Run
Reasons Braddock did not take the path along Jennings Run were:
· Washington had repaired part of the Ohio Company road in the preceding year, and that
portion would not have been terribly grown up by June 10 of 1755, when Braddock‘s
expedition left Fort Cumberland on its way toward Fort Duquesne.
· From circa 1906 Legislative Road photos (Appendix 0019), one can see that the rocky
mountain slope came very close to Jennings Run. It appears that nothing more than a
bridle path would have been possible until a certain amount of rock and earth were
moved, unless one more or less took to the creek bed in some areas. This notion is
supported by an 1806 report by commissioners for the National Road (Appendix 0061),
that mentions hillside digging as a reason for not placing the National Road along
Jennings Run. The route would not have been very suitable for Braddock‗s artillery and
numerous wagons.[26]

John Hancock’s ship Liberty is seized in a disagreement over payment of customs duties; protesters riot in Boston.[27]
June 10, 1774: Lord Dunmore called out the militia of southwest Virginia under the command of Colonel Andrew Lewis.[28]
June 10, 1775
When the war broke out, the two young Bedingers Henry and George. M. enlisted for a year in rifle company of Capt. Hugh Stevenson; another company was embodied in the neighbood. Of Winchester, in Frederick Co., some twenty five miles distant, under Danel Morgan, afterwards so famed in the war. Stevenson’s company numbered 100 men, young & athletic & famous sharp shooters with their rifles. This company was honored with a barbecue at Stevenson’s or rather Stinson’s Spring, in the neighborhood of Shepardstown a little southwest of the town, large, clear spring surrounding wh. Was a lovely grove. Here the barbecue was given by (*Col. Wm. Morgan & others)(*crossed out) their neighbors. Aplenty of meats & cake. A large number of people of the neighborhood collected- men women & children. It was something new-(*& with some it was)(*crossed out) a painful parting.
In The company were some men of talent; one of the number wrote a song to be sung on the occasion, & joined in singing it:
1st
That seat of science, Athens,
And Earth’s great mustress Rome,
Where now are all their glories!
We scarce can find their tombs:
Then guard your rights, Americans,
Nor stoop to lawless sway,
Oppose, oppose, oppose, oppose,
The landing of the Tea.
3d.
Far from a world of tyrants,
Beneath the western sky,
We formed a new dominion,
In the land of Liberty,
The world shall own their masters here,
Then hasten on the day,
We’ll shout & shoot, and shoot & shout,
For brave America.
4th.
We led fair Freedom hither,
And lo the deserts smiled,
A paradise of pleasure,
Just opened in the wild;
Your harvest, bold Americans,
No power shall snatch away,
(*Preserve, preserve, preserve, preserve your rights)(*crossed out)
Then let’s huzza, huzza, huzza
For brave America.
5th
Some future day shall crown us,
The masters of the main,
By giving law & freedom
To the subjects, France & Spain,
And all the isles & oceans spread,
Shall tremble & obey
The laws, the laws, the laws, the laws
Of North America.
2nd
Proud Albion bowed to Caesar,
And numerous lords before,
To Picts, and Danes, & Normans,
And many masters more,
But we can boast, Americans,
We’ve never fell a prey,
Preserve, preserve, preserve your rights
For brave America.
At the close of the barbecue, it was proposed that (*as the company were about to march out in defence of their liberties the survivors of the company present, if successful in the mighty struggle in wh. They were about to engage, should that day fifty years meet again on that spot & commemorate the interesting event. The mutual pledge was quickly interchanged, & then followed the touching parting scene of the little patriot band with their wives, their kindred, their sweethearts, and friends It was the 10th June, ’75.[29] [30]
June 1775
That in the month of June 1775 this affiant entered as a volunteer rifleman under Captain Hugh Stephanson at Shephardstown then Berley now Jefferson county, Virginia and that he marched from thence as well as he recollects on the 10th or 11th of the same June(June 10 or 11) to the siege of Boston, passing through Frederic Town Maryland passing Susquehannah at Wrights Ferry passing through Little York Lancaster & Bethlehem P.A. Crossed the Delaware at Easton, & and passing through New Jersey & Harfort Connecticut thence through part of Massachusetts to Roxberry near Boston. Remaind at Roxbury near eight months. In the Spring of 1776 early in March (March 1776), he with sd. Company were sent from Roxbury…Dorchester Point (as we then called) it which was still nearer Boston & in front of the fortification on the hights, which had in one night been erected and so near the chanel through which I think two vessels attempted to pass that one of them at leat ran a ground in shallow water to keep at a greater distance from the brisk fire from our fortification erected in one night. The British also kept up a hevy fire but did not anoy us much as our troops worked hard in the night to save ther lives in the morning. We had dug so deep that we were not in Great danger from their artillery. From Dorchester hights Capt. Stephensons company was sent to New York City where he this affiant states the company remain’d a few weeks from thence he with said company were sent to & stationd.

We or the privet soldiers with of M Company with me were exposed to ther fire. Had no Brst work to protect our hose, we lay and slept with our heads towars the British cannon this beingthe safest position, as a cannon Bal would do less execution in this way than if we lay across their fire. Our captain in the Spring of 76 got as we were told appointed Colonel left us on Statten Island and returnd home to proceed to recruit and organize a regiment but he unfortunate got sick & died before he had the satisfaction of accom;lishing this undertakin.

June 10, 1782: Colonel William Crawford led the ill-fated expedition against the Sandusky Indians.
From the Collins/Stoner family history:
"In the spring of the year 1782 the Indians became very numerous and
marauding bands were giving the settlers no end of trouble.
An appeal to Fort Pitt was made for soldiers to help chase them out.
A company of volunteers was raised and placed under the command of Col.
William Crawford. The regular soldiers assisted by the volunteers rove the
Indian bands across the Ohio River and north through Ohio. The Indians kept
retreating until they reached northern Ohio, where they were met by a large
supporting band of French and Indians.
Scouts reported that they were greatly outnumbered and a retreat was
ordered, whereupon some of the volunteers became panicky and Col. Crawford
and nine of his men were cut off and captured. Among this group was Dr.
Knight, a short muscular man from Bullskin Twp. These men were divided
between various bands of Indians, who either killed them or tortured them to
death. Crawford and Knight were kept together for a time and Knight was a
witness to Crawford's fate.
The Indians first bound Crawford's hands, with leather thongs with the
other end tied to a state leaving a short length which would allow a few
turns of travel around. He was then shot at with guns at short range
loaded only with powder until his naked body was blistered from head to
foot.
He was then driven around one way then back by the Indiana squaws who
showered him with red hot wood cinders until he was wading in fiery coals.
Occasionally an Indian would slash him with a knife.
During this ordeal, Simon Gerty, the renegade half breed Indian trader,
sat on his horse close by. Crawford seeing him implored him to shoot him
to end his misery but Gerty only laughed and refused to interfere.
When completely exhausted Crawford fell flat in the burning cinders
when an Indian rushed to him, ran his knife around his head, then holding
his knife between his teeth tore Crawford's scalp from his head. There,
completely exhausted, smothered in cinders, death relieved his sufferings.
It is recorded that his death too place on June 10, 1782 in the valley
of the Tamooche Creek, near Sandusky, Ohio.
Dr. Knight was more lucky, as with hands tied he was being taken to
another camp for a similar fate by two Indians, one of them having been
wounded but still able to travel. The night being chilly, they decided to
build a fire to roast some meat. Knight was able to work his thongs loose
but waited for a chance to get his captors off guard. When the fire was
burning well and the Indian was tending the meat Dr. Knight went into action
by grabbing a burning stick and driving it into the Indiana's body, thereby
putting him temporarily out of normal action. He then made a break for
liberty. One Indian grabbed his gun to shoot but in the hurry he broke the
gun and Knight escaped, finally arriving at Fort Mcintosh, on the Beaver
River June 22, 1782. The last Indian massacre in Green Co. took place at
Whiteley on a Sunday morning May 12, 1782 when the McCarthy family were all
killed when on their way to church. Crawford was burned at the stake by
the Indians at a place in the Valley of the Tamooche Creek June 10, 1782.
Among the volunteers on this expedition under Co. Crawford, were men by
the familiar names of John Smilie, James and John Collins, John Sherrard and
John Crawford, a son of the Colonel."
Crawford's Defeat ballad:
In seventeen hundred and eight two,
on the fourth day of May, as I tell it to you;
the [sic] crossed the Ohio, as we understand,
and bold Crawford gave them Command.
Their number four hundred eighty and nine,
and to take Sandusky Town, was their design.

[June 10, 1782—Monday]
Early this morning, Col. William Crawford, Dr. John Knight and the nine other American prisoners being held at Wingenund’s Town for the past three days were led away from the village, heading westward, guarded by a strong party of 17 Delaware warriors. The captives were greatly dejected, having just been told they were being taken to Pimoacan’s Town on Tymochtee Creek. They would be marched first to the old Half King’s Town, where they would spend the night, and tomorrow they would complete the journey.
The procession soon passed the place where Crawford and Knight had been captured and not long afterward began following the trail by which the army had made its initial approach to the old Half King’s Village. When that trail moved toward the southwest, however, the party continued straight west on another, smaller trail that was a more direct route than the one following the left bank of the Sandusky River.
Now, as they continued traveling, Crawford learned that his companion of many years ago, Simon Girty, was presently staying at Monakaduto’s house in the New Half King’s Town, not far from where the battle was fought. Seeing a possible ray of hope there for getting himself out of this present predicament, Crawford managed to convince his captors to take him there to talk with Girty instead of with the others to the old Half King’s Town.
When they came to where the trail split, 15 of the warriors led all the prisoners, except for Crawford, to the left fork, heading west and slightly south toward the old village, still about another seven miles distant. The other two warriors directed Crawford to follow the northwest fork and said they would reach Monakaduto’s new town in about an hour.[42]
Almost at this very moment, someone else was entering that New Half King’s Town who was not at all happy to be there—Pvt. Thomas Heady, under guard of the small party of Wyandot warriors who had been involved in his capture. The muscular young volunteer was in fairly good shape, considering he had been forced to run along with the horses much of the distance from where he had been captured toward this principal town. Only when his wounded leg began bothering him more and he became so exhausted that he slowed them considerably had he been permitted to ride double with one of the warriors for the remainder of the journey.
Now, having arrived at the town, they were greeted by a large number of Wyandots, including many women and children, who streamed out of their dweffings with loud cries, cheers and whoopings. With hardly a pause in the main part of the village, on the east side of the river, they crossed at the fording place to the west side and continued westward, passing McCormick’s Trading Post, where a number of other warriors emerged, along with half a dozen or more British Rangers.
With Heady’s captors leading the way, the entire group moved gradually west a short distance to where, close to the John Leith Trading Post, they formed a double gauntlet line some 200 yards in length. At the far southern edge of the line, Heady was stripped of all clothing and his face and body smeared with black paint—the mark of the condemned man. He was made to understand he was to run to the painted post at the north end of the line, adjacent to Leith’s store. If he made it there, his life would supposedly be spared. Blackened as he was for death, however, Heady didn’t believe that for a moment. Despite the tomahawk wound on his thigh, now somewhat inflamed and causing him to limp a little, he thought he could reach the far northern end of the gauntlet, and he resolved that if he got close enough, he would burst through the line and dart into the store, hoping to find refuge there. If nothing else, he might at least be able to snatch up a weapon and die fighting.
Most of the women and children who took their places in the line were wielding switches and larger sticks with which to strike the captive as he passed. Younger boys readied themselves with tomahawks and small bows and arrows with sharpened but not barbed points. Some of the men also had clubs, and a few had tomahawks, but the majority were armed with rifles heavily charged with gunpowder but not lead. There was little delay in starting Heady on his way. One of the warriors cried “Go!” and, at the same moment, he was whacked savagely across the small of his back with a club; the blow caused him to stagger, though he managed not to fall. At once he began running as strongly through the double line as he could. A roar of shrieks and screams rose all the way down the length of the gauntlet, and participants positioned themselves to strike most effectively.
The rules of the gauntlet run, such as they were, required that no one could strike or shoot at him as he approached and thereby check his forward progress, but they were free to inflict ~hatever injury they could to his sides and back as he passed. The result was that a multitude of blows rained upon him as he ran past the screaming Wyandots, and soon the skin of his back and buttocks, arms and legs, was badly bruised and lacerated, and a number of arrows were stuck shallowly in his flesh.
Worse yet was the intense stinging and burning pain inflicted upon him by powder burns, as warriors thrust their guns within inches of him and fired as he passed.
Despite the injuries, Heady’s constitution was such that he was holding up well as he approached the northern end of the line and the nearest point to Leith’s Trading Post. Abruptly he turned and smashed into the line, bowling over several people, and continued running right into the store.
John Leith was inside and Heady ran up to him and stopped, unable at first to talk as he gasped for breath but looking at the trader imploringly. Tempted though he was to thrust a weapon into the young man’s hands so he could defend himself, Leith did not do so, knowing it would place his own life in jeopardy. An instant later an Indian who had pursued him from the gauntlet line appeared in the doorway and threw his tomahawk. It struck Heady in the right side of his back, causing him to leap into the air with a cry of pain. He spun around and, with the weapon still embedded in his back, raced toward the door and bowled over the approaching Indian. The instant he plunged through the open doorway, however, he was struck by another tomahawk. The blade smashed into his brain and killed him.
As John Leith watched in horror, the shrieking Indians scalped Thomas Heady and then severed his head and stuck it on the end of a sharpened pole a dozen feet in length. They planted the butt end of the pole in the ground close to where he fell and left the body lying near the doorway to the trading post. As the excitement diminished, Leith approached a small group of the Wyandot leaders and asked permission to take down the head and bury it, along with the body, away from his store some distance. At first they refused to let him do so.
“Your people,” one of the chiefs told him, “do not bury our dead, and we will not bury yours.”
Leith was not so easily dissuaded, knowing that if he did not press the issue, the head and body might well remain where they were until they rotted. He shook his head angrily and resorted to the only form of pressure he could exert. “If you don’t let me bury those remains, I promise you I will move my trading post from here to Chief Pipe’s Village on the Tymochtee.”
The village of Pipe—Pimoacan’s Town—was about five miles to the west, and if Leith reestablished himself there, it would cause a considerable inconvenience for the Wyandots here at the New Half King’s Town. So, with poor grace, they gave in and told Leith he could do with the body as he wished. After a short while, when the Indians dispersed and returned to the village, Leith took down the head and returned it to the body. He washed the blood off both, wrapped them together in a clean blanket and buried them. A short time later some of the warriors returned and, seeing what he had done, took several sharpened stakes and drove them deeply into the fresh grave and through the buried body as a final act of triumph.
The villagers were still keyed up over it all when, hardly a quarter-hour later, a party of Delawares arrived with the American commander, Col. William Crawford in tow. Another stir of excitement rippled through Half King’s Town. The Delaware -were on their way to Pimoacan’s Village with Crawford but stopped by here to show him off and to see if Simon Girty would consent to seeing him, assuming that such a meeting would be all right with Monakaduto.
Permission was granted by Monakaduto himself, who led Crawford and his two guards to his own house where Girty was temporarily lodging. Despite the fact that it was now nearing midday, Girty was still asleep, having drunk himself into a stupor the preceding night. Monakaduto roused Girty and then let the captive and the British agent talk privately.
“Heard you was took, Colonel,” Girty said, regarding him through bloodshot eyes. “I get no pleasure seeing you here. Guess you know you’ve got yourself into bad trouble.”
“I know that, Girty,” Crawford replied. “That’s why I asked to see you. I was hoping you’d somehow be able to help get me out of this. I’ll see that you’re well rewarded.”[43]
Girty shook his head. “I ain’t got much hope of that. Trouble is, it’s the Delawares got you, not Wyandots. Them Delawares are plenty damn mad over what happened at Gnadenhütten.”
“I had no part in that,” Crawford protested. “That was Dave Williamson’s work.”
“Figgered as much. But you led this one, an’ they’ll just figger you done both. Reckon you boys didn’t come here for no friendly visit, so they ain’t gonna be no kind feelin’ toward you.”
“The point is, can you get me off? You can tell them I’ll divulge military information in exchange for my freedom, but for nothing less. Can you ransom me?”
Girty shrugged. “Dunno. Doubt it. But I got me some friends aroun’ an’ I’ll talk to ‘em an’ see what mebbe we can do. You wait here and I’ll do some checkin’ an’ see. Might take a few hours.”
Then he was gone. Crawford settled back to wait, still apprehensive but also with more optimism than previously, knowing the influence Girty carried with many of the Indians. Crawford’s optimism was not at this moment being experienced by his namesake nephew, his son-in-law and one of the expedition’s guides. Those three, Ens. William Crawford, Pvt. William Harrison and Guide John Slover, were at this very instant approaching the Shawnee capital village of Wapatomica, some 40 miles to the southwest.
As these men were led into the town, they passed the still smoldering remains of a fire and the body of a man who had been tortured to death at the stake. As they came closer, they recognized the freshly burned remains of Maj. John McClelland. Grateful to leave the scene behind, they moved on to the center of town, where they were surrounded by a noisy swarm of Shawnees. Slover was well known here, of course, having been a Shawnee prisoner for six years, and many of the Indians called to him and made remarks, most of which were not complimentary. Surprisingly, however, several approached and shook his hand and seemed delighted when he addressed them by name.
group of warriors were on hand from the village of Mackachack, some six and half miles southwest of here, down the Mad River. After some discussion between them and the others, the leader of the Mackachack Shawnees pointed at Ens. William Crawford, who was immediately turned over to them and led off toward their village to be burned at the stake.[44]
More discussions were begun and dragged on and on, and gradually verbal disputes broke out among them. After two hours or more, they seemed no closer to agreement than when they began. The conflict seemed to arise from what they should do with John Slover. Ordinarily, an escaped captive who was recaptured was condemned to death as a matter of course. Slover, however, had been well liked during his tenure here, and there were those in the crowd who apparently thought his life should be spared. At last, after two hours of squabbling, it was decided that a formal council would have to be held where all who wished to have their say in the matter could be heard, a vote taken and the matter resolved. A young woman with whom Slover had been more than friendly, Pahcotai Sisqui—Autumn Leaf—requested and was given the responsibility of keeping him—and preventing his escape
—until the council was held in three or four days.
Where Pvt. William Harrison was concerned, however, there was no debate. As Slover was now taken off to one side, the private was stripped of all clothing and taken out 100 yards or more from the village. A double gauntlet line quickly formed, extending all the way from where Harrison was positioned to the huge msi-kah-mj qui, or council house. If he managed to make it through the gauntlet and into the structure, he would be safe, at least for a while.
Harrison was started down the gauntlet by a savage blow with a club across his buttocks. It lifted him off his feet and knocked him flat, and he was struck numerous times more with switches and clubs before he was able to regain his feet and commence running. Once started, however, he amazed everyone with his fleetness and ability to dodge the blows aimed at him.
As he approached the council house, still relatively unharmed, one of the Indian women ran up with a panful of hot coals, stepped directly in his path and threw them full in his face. Many struck him and bounced away, doing little harm, but one hit his open eye and he screamed with the pain. At the same time, using the momentum he had built up, he leaped and kicked her in the stomach with such force that it killed her. Immediately pummeled by the weapons of those nearby, he tried to break free and get to the council house, now only mere yards away. It was not to be. The husband of the woman he had killed rushed up brandishing a rifle and put a bullet through Harrison’s head.
Harrison was scalped and his body dumped beside the burned remains of Maj. McClelland Then both were beheaded, their bodies dragged outside the town for the dogs to feed on and their heads impaled on tall poles, which were then stuck in the ground in the center of the village near the council house.
Back at Half King’s Town in the late afternoon, Col. William Crawford, awaiting the return of Simon Girty, had begun to think that his former companion would not return at all. As the hours passed, he had become progressively more depressed. Now, with sunset approaching, his depression became overwhelming as Simon Girty finally returned to him, his expression grim. What the British Indian agent had to say did nothing to elevate Crawford’s spirits.
“I have tried with all those I know who might have helped,” he told the colonel. “All but a few refused even to listen. They don’t have much fondness for Americans. Most said you deserve whatever may be in store for you, which most hoped was death. Those few who might have helped can do nothing to get you released.”
Crawford said nothing, but he shook his head slightly. Girty continued: “You will be staying in this village tonight, and in the morning the Delawares will take you to Pimoacan’s Village, which will almost surely be the beginning of the end for you. There is only one possible hope left. Escape. Tonight will be your only opportunity, and I strongly urge you to take it. Only one Indian will be guarding you tonight, and he is almost certain to go to sleep, at which time you can slip away. I have told you where my camp is. Come there, and you will find my horse already saddled and ready for you. My Negro will also be waiting to go with you, and he will guide you on the road toward Detroit, as far as he can go and still get back to my camp by morning. At Detroit you can give yourself up at the garrison and you will be taken into custody, but at least you will be safe with the British officers there. This, my friend, is all I can do for you. You can easily get away, if you will. If not, tomorrow they will kill you.”
Crawford continued shaking his head and replied in a voice so soft it was barely audible, “I am too weak and tired to try that.”
“You may come to wish you had, my friend,” Girty murmured sadly. “Don’t give up hope yet. I will still be tryin’ t’save you somehow.”[45]
A short while later Crawford’s Delaware guards led him away to the hut that had been provided for them for the night. The colonel went with them meekly, as if sleepwalking in the midst of a worsening nightmare.[46]

Col. Crawford was very desirous to see a certain Simon Girty, who lived with the Indians, and was on this account permitted to go to town the same night, with two warriors to guard him, having orders at the same time to pass by the place where the Col. had turned out his horse, that they might if possible, find him. The rest of us were taken as far as the old town which was within eight miles of the new.[49]

The 10th. Several days ago, after the greater part of the prisoners had already arrived, two officers and fifty men of the Brunswickers came to New York quite unexpectedly. Since their captivity over five years ago they had heard nothing at all. They had been shut. up in the mountains and employed in ironworks. They were not half clad, and misery and hunger could be read in their faces. On the whole, the Brunswick troops have endured the most misfortune of all the Germans. They were captured early in the first campaign, were not clothed again by their masters, and not a single officer was advanced since that time. There are many captains among them who were already captains in 1760.[50]

This are the only entries approaching Daniel McKinnon in appearance. And we know he must have been there because Theophilus says so.[51]
June 10, 1810: Ruth McKinnon was born December 4, 1755 and about 1785 married Captain John Bavington
(Bevington) born February 2, 1750. They both died in Washington County, Pennsylvania, he on June 10, 1810 and she on February 4, 1824. They took up a Patent called "Milltown" in Washington County, PA, February 22, 1786. They had ten children(37). (The records of Pennsylvania were not research for additional information.)
Eleanor Howard is claimed to be the daughter of a male Howard (General Eager Howard).
Eleanor McKinnon's father cannot be established and the most that can be inferred from the records
was that he resided in All Hallows Parish of Anne Arundel County, Maryland and was not Daniel
McKinnon. [52]
June 10, 1818: Conrad married Catherine McKinnon, June 10, 1818, in Clark County, Ohio. She was born in 1795, daughter of Judge Daniel McKinnon. Her mother's maiden name was Harrison. [53]
June 10, 1819
Saturday, October 01, 2005 (6)
A marriage certificate on record in the Clarke County, Ohio, courthouse indicates Conrad and Catherine were married June 10, 1819, before Saul Henkle (Ref #10). According to my notes he was a Methodist Episcopal Minister that came to Clark County by horseback from West Virginia. He was the first clerk of court. The record sent to me from Dorothy Nordgren (Ref #5) shows the date of marriage was 1818 but the marriage certificate shows clearly “1819”. This 1818 certificate date may have been inserted at some time to make insignificant the date of birth of their first child, Matilda, which was August 18, 1819, just 3 months and 10 days after the date of marriage. John, the second child was not born until 4 years later. The next chapter reveals that in the year 1819 not only did Conrad get married and have a child but he bought 83 acres of land and paid $1,000. cash for it. Note Mary Ann lived to be 98 years of age but Nancy Jane died at age 26 and Matilda died at 14. (Ref #5). When Catherine died the children were the following ages:
William Harrison Goodlove (my great grandfather) was 13,
Mary Ann was 21; Joseph was 17 and already a teacher, John was married and on his own at age 27. Nancy lived close by and was married to Dr. Milton Read Hunter and Catherine was enjoying her grandson, Franklin C. Hunter, who was 3 years old.

1819: "The Vance Song"
http://www.blueridgeinstitute.org/images/spacer.gif
Vance Song main page | song & audiohttp://www.blueridgeinstitute.org/ballads/images/russell_map.gif
Several details concerning "The Vance Song" are sketchy, but the story centers around the murder of Lewis Horton in 1817. According to oral history, Abner Vance was a hunter and/or a preacher. His daughter had a sexual encounter with either neighbor Lewis Horton or Lewis' brother Daniel. As a result, Vance quarreled with the Hortons and ended up shooting Lewis off his horse at the Clinch River. Again, oral history suggests that Vance may have actually intended to kill Daniel Horton.
Both Vance and his wife were tried in Russell County for the murder, but only Abner was convicted. After a series of appeals, the original conviction was upheld, and Vance was hung in Washington County in 1819.
"The Vance Song" is unusual in that it is autobiographical. Abner Vance reportedly composed and sang it while awaiting his execution. The song went into oral tradition and was still known in Virginia, West Virginia, and Kentucky more than a century after Vance's death. It has also been collected under the titles "Vance's Song," and "Vance's Farewell."

Bright shines the sun on Clinch's Hill.
So soft the west wind blows.
The valleys are lined with flowers gay,
Perfumed with the wild rose.
Green are the woods through which Sandy flows.
Peace dwells in the land.
The bear doth live in the laurel green.
The red buck roves the hills.
But Vance no more on Sandy behold
Nor drink its crystal waves.
The partial judge announced his doom.
The hunters found his grave.
There's Daniel, Bill, and Lewis,
A lie against me swore
In order to take my life away
That I may be no more.
But I and them shall meet again
When Immanuel's trumpet shall blow.
Perhaps I'll be wrapped in Abraham's bosom
When they roll in the gulf below.
My body it will be laid in the tomb.
My flesh it will decay,
But the blood that was shed on Calvary
Has washed my sins away.
Farewell, farewell, my old sweetheart,
Your face I'll see no more.
I'll meet you in the world above,
Where parting is no more.

June 10th, 1825
To complete the incident: the 10th June, 1825, was the time for the semi-centenial meeting. Two old veterans met, from the original Capt. Stevenson’s company, a splendid dinner was prepared for them, a company of artillerymen from Shepardstown joined in the celebration, an appropriate oration was pronounced, & the old veterans, by special request, sung the song “That seat of science, Athens”, & some other of their old war songs. [59]
The Meeting at "Stinson's Spring"
IT was now fifty years since, the party of eager young
men had met at the spring on the old Bedinger
place, and pledged themselves to meet again when a
half century had rolled away. And where was that
gallant little company? Alas, the fate of many, of at
least two-thirds, was a dreadful death, not on the
field of glory, hut in the terrible prisons of New York
where their treatment was so harsh that it seems as if
human brutality could go no further. Some, it is true,
escaped ; and others survived, often in enfeebled
health, to be exchanged, and once more to breathe free
air.
In 1825 one or two, besides Henry and Michael
Bedinger, were still alive, but they were old and
feeble. And so it happened that, on the day appointed,
(ho tenth of Juno, 1SJ5, two old brothers rode in to
the rendezvous at "Stinson's Spring;" one, all the way
from Bourbon County, Kentucky ; and the other from
his home near Martinsburg. The two old brothers
met, and clasped each other's hands, and looked into
each other's eyes, for the last time.
Of this affecting meeting a newspaper of the day,
the Harper's Ferry Free Press, gave a full and very
graphic account. This I will copy here as the best
description written by an eye witness of the scene.
It will be noted that the spring where the meeting
took place is said to belong to Daniel Morgan. This
was a son of Elizabeth l)edinger Morgan. His home,
including the famous spring,* was bought long after

*This spring must not be confounded with Morgan's Spring,
now the property of Dr. Crawford.
his death, in 1859, by the widow of Henry Bedingcr,
one of the sons of Michael's dearly loved brother,
Daniel. The writer of this little book now lives in the
old house partly built by Daniel Morgan, and often
visits the famous old spring. A tablet should be
placed at the spot to commemorate the patriotic meet-
ings there, and perhaps this may yet be done.
FROM THE harper's FERRY FREE PRESS OF JUNE 1825.
A party of ladies and gentlemen repaired on Friday,
the tenth of June, to a spring (Air. D. Morgan's, near
Shepherdstown) for the purpose of celebrating the
day, pursuant to an arrangement made 50 years be-
fore. The circumstances which gave rise to this truly
interesting celebration have been related to us as fol-
lows, by a gentleman who was present.
In the spring of 1775 General Washington selected
Hugh Stephenson and Daniel Morgan, afterwards
Colonel Hugh Stephenson and General Morgan, to
command two companies of men, the quota Virginia
had been required to furnish.
Altho' at the time Boston was invested with a large
military force, and the prospects of Americans were
enveloped in impenetrable gloom, yet so great was
the love of liberty which animated our forefathers,
that two volunteer comi)anies were instantly raised,
one at She])herdstown, and the other at Winchester.
They turnetl out for twelve months, furnished their
own rifles and equipment, and marched to Boston in
twenty-one days.
A barbecue was given by Colonel William Morgan,
to Stephenson's company, on the 10th day of June,
1775, the period of its organization, at thcspring above
mentioned, which has ever since been known by the
name of Stephenson's spring.
\
Then it was that a prophetic and truly patriotic
song was sung (of which we hope to obtain a copy)
and an agreement made by these heroes of the olden
time, that the survivors of the perils they were then
about to encounter and of the ravages of time, should
"meet at that spring and on that day fifty years to
come," which agreement has thus been redeemed.
Out of the ninety-seven* gallant spirits who com-
posed the company, five only are living, and of the
latter number but two were present, namely, Major
Henry Bedinger, of Berkeley County, \^irginia, and
Major M. Bedinger, of Kentucky.' The other three
are Judge Robert White of Winchester, and General
Samuel Finley and William Hulse, Esq., of Ohio, all
of whom it is understood would have attendctl had
they not been prevented by old age and infirmity. A
few of those who fought in '76, and one who sur-
vived the slaughter at St. Clair's defeat, were among
the number present at this celebration.
Soon after the company had partaken of an elegant
dinner given by Mr. Daniel Morgan, Captain Harper,
with a detachment of artillery, was seen at a distance
advancing with colours flying and music playing to pay
suitable honors to the occasion. The sound of the
music, and the appearance of the martial column, be-
ing unexpected, must have struck the minds of this
remnant of Ivevoinlionary veterans with alternaiely
joyful and gloomy reminiscences of "limes long past!"
The thrill of joy at the recollection of the "well fought
field;" and the gloom of melancholy at the remem-
brance of the immense sacrifice of valuable lives,
which the gain of freedom cost our now happy coim-
try.
*A mistake. There were one hundred men.
The salutes were then gone through, and the very
interesting ceremony of presenting one of Stephen-
son's Company (Major Michael Fjedinger) to the sons
and grandsons of his compeers in arms ; he passing
through the ranks and shaking each cordially hy the
hand.
Whilst this was performing and the eyes and atten-
tion of the spectators were intently fixed ui)on the
touching scene, guns were fired, at a signal previously
agreed upon, by a detachment of artillery stationed
on an eminence for that jDurpose.
Afterwards a number of national airs were played
in the first style by the band, and two patriotic songs
were sung by Major Michael Uedingcr (69 years of
age) he being earnestly solicited, — the very same that
had been sung at that spot fifty years before.
Several toasts were drunk and Auld Lang Syne was
played by the martial band, which had a very solemn
and grand efifect.
The train of reflections produced by the veterans,
their anecdotes, collected from real life in the course
of three generations, "all of which they saw, and part
of w^hich they were," may be more easily imagined
than described. Indeed the gifted pen of the author
of "The Spy" would not be disgraced by the subject.
They recalled to the mind the American Colonies
when they presented little more than a vast, unculti-
vated wilderness, the population declared to be in a
state of rebellion ; advancing, they met the gibbet ;
retreating, death or slavery; turning to the right they
encountered bayonets; to the left, scalping knives;
without money, without friends, and almost without
hope !
But now America's sails whiten every ocean, and
her sons visit every clime. In literature and arts, too. [60][61]

In 1833, Louis-Philippe proposed the establishment of a museum dedicated to “all the glories of France,” which included the Orléans dynasty and the Revolution of 1830 that put Louis-Philippe on the throne of France. For the next decade, under the direction of Eugène-Charles-Frédéric Nepveu and Pierre-François-Léonard Fontaine, the château underwent irreversible alterations (Constans, 1985; 1987; Mauguin, 1937; Verlet, 1985). The museum was officially inaugurated on June 10, 1837 as part of the festivities that surrounded the marriage of the Prince royal, Ferdinand-Philippe d'Orléans with princess Hélène of Mecklenburg-Schwerin and represented one of the most ambitious and costly undertakings of Louis-Philippe's reign. Over, the emperor at the king's home – Napoléon at Louis XIV's; in a word, it is having given to this magnificent book that is called French history this magnificent binding that is called Versailles (Victor Hugo).[8][63] [64]

The brigade’s medical inspector was disappointed in his attempt to check the men and their quarters. Most members of the regiment slipped off to town, and those who remained demanded he inspedct their rations of rotten cod fish and meat first. Private Rigby was further upset that his company had to share their quarters with the “card playing community,” whose gambling often went on until midnight.[75]
Most of the men were anxious to return home. Lucas informed his brothyer:
“You wish me to give you my opinion as to what part of the country I would prefer of all those through which I traveled during the war. I will say ‘Iowa,’ because, although the winters are generally long and severe, it is healthful. It is only after having spent some time in the field and in a country where it hardly ever freezes hard enough to purify the atmosphere that a man can appreciate the healthful climate of Iowa. I think that any man can appreciate the healthful climate of Iowa. I thingk that any
Belgian of ordinary constitution should not go to live south of Saint Louis, or at least not south of the 38th degree of latitude.[76]
Lucas went on to express his dissatisfaction of Secretary of War Stanton’s treatment of General Sherman. Judging frfom the newspaper reports, the captain felt that the break between the two over the liberal surrender terms of General Johnston’s army was Stanton’s fault. If the proposed terms had been accepted by Washington, Lucas felt, it would have done much to restore friendly feeling between the sections. In Lucas’ opinion, the war had produced three great military generals, Sheridan, Sherman, and Grant. The Belgian was certain Grant would now make a better Secretary of War than Stanton.[77]
June 10, 1867: Lee, Robert E. (Robert Edward), 1807-1870 (A.L.S.), June 10, 1867.[78]

[30] To complete the incident: the 10th June, 1825, was the time for the semi-centenial meeting. Two old veterans met, from the original Capt. Stevenson’s company, a splendid dinner was prepared for them, a company of artillerymen from Shepardstown joined in the celebration, an appropriate oration was pronounced, & the old veterans, by special request, sung the song “That seat of science, Athens”, & some other of their old war songs.

[42] The fork in the trail was located some seven miles east of present Upper Sandusky, a quarter-mile east of the roadside rest area on U.S. Route 30.
[43] One account states that Crawford offered Girty $30,000 to save him; others, probably more reliably, say the amount Crawford first offered was $1,000.
[44] No further details are known respecting the ultimate fate of Ens. William Crawford, apart from the fact that the Shawnees there reported that several captives taken from Col. Crawford’s army were burned at the stake. Ens. Crawford, never heard of again, is assumed to have been one of these.
[45] Contrary to the legend that has grown up around Simon Girty as the archrenegade who delighted n torturing prisoners, he strove far beyond what might have been expected in his efforts to save Crawford’s life, even, as will be seen to the point of ultimately his own life in jeopardy. His efforts to save Crawford were extensive and fully corroborated by Mrs. Valentine McCormick, wife of the proprietor of McCormick’s Trading Post at the New Half King’s Town, who personally witnessed what he didi. Most histories of Crawford’s campaign, his capture and execution have, unfortunately, been led astray by what was long considered the foremost history of these events as portrayed by Consul Wilshire Butterfield in his book, An historical Account of the Expedition Against Sandusky Under William Crawford in 1782; with Biographical Sketches, Personal Reminiscences and Descriptions of Interesting Localities, including, also, Details of the Disastrous Retreat, the Barbarities of the Savages and the Awful Death of Colonel Crawford by Torture (Cincinnati, 1873). Sadly, Butterfield’s history of the campaign must be largely discounted, since he was himself strongly influenced by a hightly prejudiced account of these events attributed to Dr. aJohn Knight and entitled Dr. Knight’s Narrative, which was, in fact, written and edited by Hugh H. Brackenridge, who interviewed Dr. Knight at his bedside and grossly distrorted what Knight told him. He was equally prejudicial in respect to John Slover’s Narrative. Brackenridge made no secret of the fact that he positively detested the Indians and that he deliberately set about to paint Simon Girty as the ost villainously cruel and loathsome renegade who ever lived. Anything Brackenridge encountered thqat showed Girty capable of compassion was omitted or deliberately altered to Girty’s detriment. Prior to becoming involved with Dr. Knight, Brackenridge had for some time published a Philadelphia political journal, in which his anti-Indian leanings were clearly exposed. Indians were consistently referred to as savages or monsters or worse in his writings, and in his editorial observations, included with both the John Slover and John Knight narratives, he refers to the native people as those “animals vulgarly called Indians.” He emphatically claimed that white men could not deal with Indians in any respect because of the cruelty and fierceness of the latter, that such Indians had no rights whatever to the land they occupied and that, in fact, all western lands belonged only to those who cultivated them in accordance to the dictates of God as they appeared in the Bible. Simon Girty’s wife, Catherine, often stated emphatically in later years that Dr. Knight’s narrative was “either utterly untrue or greatly exaggerated.”

Series 4: Harrison Family Correspondence and Miscellaneous Documents, 1637-1954, bulk 1800-1911
This series is primarily made up of letters to and from persons who appear to have been ancestors of Harrison, although there are also a few items (such as a will, letters of introduction, seventeenth and eighteenth century land deeds, and documents concerning military or political appointments), that are not correspondence but which have been included in this series because they relate to Harrison's ancestors. The series also includes: (a) a letter sent to Caroline Owsley from Belle Harvey regarding the Grasshopper Club and other social activities of Harrison's mother, Sophonisba Preston Harrison; (b) three letters sent to William Preston Harrison, Harrison's brother (a response from Rutherford B. Hayes to Preston's request for an autograph, a condolence letter following Harrison's father's assassination, and a thank you note for a complimentary subscription to the Chicago Times); (c) two letters sent by Harrison's son, Carter H. Harrison V, to Russell MacFall following Harrison's death; (d) seventy letters from Ella Lewis to Lucy Brady Cook, Harrison's daughter-in-law; and (e) a letter from James Madison to Robert H. Grayson.
The letters to and from Harrison's ancestors cover a variety of topics, both business and personal, but seem to have been collected by Harrison because they were written by, or sent to, family members, rather than because he was particularly interested in their subject matter. Only a very few of the items in this series contain explanatory annotations by Harrison. Correspondence relating specifically to the genealogy and history of the Harrison Family is gathered in Series 11 (Harrison Family History). Correspondence to or from Harrison's father, Carter H. Harrison III, or Harrison's wife, Edith Ogden Harrison, is arranged separately as well in Series 16-17, and Series 14-15, respectively.
The correspondence in this series is arranged alphabetically by the sender's name. Multiple items within a folder are then arranged chronologically. Documents other than correspondence are arranged alphabetically by the name of the person to whom the document primarily relates.
