This Day…
June 13, 823: Birthdate of Charles the Bald, who as Holy Roman Emperor refused to comply with anti-Semitic edicts of Amulo, the Archbishop of Lyon. In doing so, Charles was following in the footsteps of grandfather Charlemagne who had also refused to comply with anti-Semitic edicts issued by Christian clerics.[1]
831-834: Traveler ! " says a quaint writer, " To give you the root of those who enrich the dust of this tomb, I shall require to bespeak your patience. The MacKinnons are of the Alpinian family, who from A.D. 834 till the death of Alexander III. A.D. 1285, swayed the Scottish sceptre. Kenneth the great, the 69th king, took the patronymie of Kenneth MacAlpine from his brave and murdered father. [King Alpin who was killed at Dunkel Bridge 831-4 by Brudus and the Picts and beheaded, but his body was taken to Icolmkill and buried here.] King Alpin's third son was called Prince Gregor, the head of that clan. Prince Gregor had a son called Donn-gheal, latinized Dongallus, who in his turn had a son called Findan, or Fingon; and this is the root of that princely tribe the MacFingans or MacKinnons."[2]
834: When Ailpein, the 68th traditional but 28th authentic King of Scotland, was slain A.D. 834 in battle near Dundee by Brudus King of the Picts from whom Ailpein had wrested the Pictish scepter, he left three sons, the youngest of whom was Prince Gregor, who did not succeed his brothers to the throne.[3]
June 13, 1299: Pope Boniface VIII allowed Jews accused by the Inquisition the right to know who their accusers were.[4]
1300 to 1400 A.D.
Cahokia declined as an urban center between 1300 and 1400 A.D.[5]
Southern Occilation occurred. When unusually warm water moves to the west of the Pacific it changes the winds taking rain and storms away from the Americas and making communities and lands parched. Normally this isn’t enough to have a lasting impact but in 1300 A.D. the climate got stuck in this phase and entered a series of mega droughts lasting for decades. It wasn’t just the Anistazi civilization that was affected. Each time the Southern Occilation got stuck in this position the result was a similarly devastating megadrought. The Fremont, mogolon, and Cahokian cultures all declined at the same times as the Anistazi. In South America the Twooneack and the Sikar and in Central America the the Tallteks and the Zapoteks were all weakend or collapsed because of droughts. And droughts may have brought to a close the first era of the mighty Mayan empire. Severe droughts weren’t the only factor in the collapse of these civilizations, because people were already living to the limits of their resources and were vulnerable to climatic changes.[6]
14th and 15th Centuries
During the 14th and 15th centuries, Jews continued to flee eastward from Germany, Austria, and Hungary to Poland, and from the north shore of the Black Sea to Poland. Jewish life flourished in Poland. Polish leaders welcomed Jews during the 13th and 14th centuries, issuing charters of legal rights for them.[7]
The Polish royalty and nobility saw the Jews as useful economically, and they welcomed their settlement. Jews served as middlemen in the feudal system. The noble landowners often leased use of their fields to the peasant-serfs with a Jew as the overseer, debt collector and enforcer. Jews weree encouraged to serve as moneylenders. Jews were also active in the lumber and the liquor businesses. However, most Jews lived in poverty in small villages, barely making a living. [8]
The Jews did not envy or admire the local non-Jewish population. For this, as well as for religious reasons, there was little intermarrieage, assimilation or acculturation. Instead, Jews maintained a dynamic religious life; Torah study and observance of the mitzvot-the religious laws and living by them were the mainstay of their lives. “More than the Jews kept Shabbos, the Sabbos kept the Jews” (Yiddish saying).
June 13, 1769: Washington did not, secure a patent for the Great Meadows tract of two hundred thirty-four acres until February 28, 1782, when he paid the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania ₤33 15s. and 8d. for it. William Brooks had applied for the tract June 13, 1769, after the Penns opened their land office and Washington bought his interest in the application on October 17, 1771. [9]
Colonel Washington acquired a measure of title to the Fort Necessity plantation Great Meadows on October 17, when he purchased the interest of William Brooks in a survey dated February 14, 1771, based on an earlier application to the land Office of Pennsylvania, June 13, 1769. He did not perfect this title until after the Revolution, when on February 28, 1782 he secured a patent for tract called “Mt Washington, situate on the east side of Laurel Hill where Braddock’s Road crosses the Great Meadows, formerly Bedford County, now in the county of Westmoreland, containing 234 ½ acres.” This patent is recorded in Fayette County Pennsylvania, in “Deed book 507,” page 458 and shows a consideration of ₤33 15s. 6d.
June 13, 1769
“Captain William Crawford, exercised, to a limited extent, his vocation of surveyor, and in that capacity made numerous unofficial, surveys for George Washington, and for his brothers Samuel and. John Augustine Washington. He also made surveys for Lund Washington, and others, even before the lands were bought ‘from the Indians. The, object of these surveys was to secure Virginia rights. Captain Crawford took up, for himself, several valuable tracts in the vicinity of Stewart’s Crossing[10]. None of these, we believe were in his own name. The home tract, at the crossing, was in the name of his son John. ‘.‘Others were in the names of Benjamin Harrison, Lawrence Harrison, Jr.,’ William Harrison, and Battle (sic) Harrison. He owned other lands, which he purchased from the Indians, or from the original settlers “f
The progenitor of this Harrison family was Lawrence Harrison, who owned the tract of land adjoining that of the Crawford’s. This is now owned by Daniel Rogers and James Blackstone. Lawrence Harrison ‘s daughter, Catherine Harrison, was the wife of the Honorable Isaac Meason, (the elder), of Mount Braddock.”
At Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, in the Land Grants Office, there is a record of a Patent, June 13, 1769, for 300 acres granted to Lawrence Harrison, adjoining the lands of Colonel William Crawford. A copy of this follows:
This was one of the richest townships along the Monongahela River’. There were doubtless settlers there as early 1761, who were driven out by the Indians, Later some returned, among whom were William Jacobs, who owned land at the mouth of ‘the Redstone Creek. In 1769, he sold his property to Lawrence Harrison and Prior Theobald.
William Jacobs applied for a survey on April 24, 1769. Having sold the tract to Lawrence Harrison arid Prior Theobald, he executed a deed to them dated June 2, 1769. ‘ ,
Lawrence Harrison transferred his right to Theobald, July 10, 1769, and on April 5, 1776, Theobald deeded it to Jesse Martin, who, in 1777, sold it to William Jackson.” [11]

June 13, 1775? Those who wnt out early in the morning to milk the cows, were Mrs. Ann Logan, Mrs. Whitley, and a negro woman. They were guarded only by William Hudson, Burr Harrison, John Kennedy, and James Craig. The women and Craig escaped into the fort unharmed; Kennedy, with four balls in his bodey, contrived alto to escape; Hudson was killed outright, and Harrison fell wounded. He was supposed by friend and foe to have been killed. The story of his final rescue by Logan, is related by Withers below. As told to Dr. Draper, by Capt. Benjamin Biggs, and as recorded in Whitleys MS. Narrative, in possession of the Wisconsin Historical Society, the story in Withers in substantially correct. It is said that Logan rolled a bag of wool before him, and thus approached Harrison under cover; then making a rush towards the latter, he picked him up in his arms and dashed successfully into the fort. These accounts make no mention of Martin’s intervention. Harrison died of his wounds, June 13. Chronicles of Border Warfare by Alexander Scott Withers, (Reuben Gold Thwaites notation) 1920 edition; pgs. 202-203 (Burr Harrison has not been linked to our line as of yet.

“June 13, 1777: Many flatboats came up the Raritan River from New York, In each flatboat was a wagon which could be put in the water easily and the boat was then loaded on it. hi a short time the boats which arrived by water were seen moving on the land. At nightfall the army began the march to Princeton but then halted at the Mills River in the region of Hillsborough and Middlebush. The rebels had entered the hills on the other side of the Mills River and fortified the area. Several English regiments, the Koehier Grenadier Battalion, and the Combined Battalion remained in Brunswick under the command of General [Edward] Mathew.”[13]
June 13, 1777: Marquis de Lafayette arrives to help the colonists in their War for Independence. Lafayette fell under the spell of Washington. He was instrumental in getting French support the Americans which was key to ultimate victory. The values of the American’s took root with Lafayette. Despite being an aristocrat he took part in the early days of the French Revolution. He voted in favor of a law that gave full rights to all French Jews except for those living in the northeast part of this country. Later, when commanding French forces near the city of Metz, he assured the Jews that they and their property would be protected. Unfortunately, not even the word of Lafayette could stop up against the Reign of Terror which was to follow.[14]

June 13th, 1782.—the main Body arrived at 12 o’clock, and were all across the River by 3 P.M. Some wounded remained here, others ?~vent to their respective homes, they were desired all, to be transported by water to Fort Pitt. Six men who had been separated from us ever since the 5th instant, came in at 4 P.M. and I since knew of five, being come in at Fort M’Intosh, among whom Capt. Hardin alias Miller John Hardin on George’s Creek, was.
N.B.—the number of killed missing will be between 40 & 50 Men & Officers. Wounded there were 28 Men & Officers, of whom 3 to my knowledge were left on the ground in the hurry of the retreat, lying in Biers ready to be moved off. their wounds were all mortal. One Thom Ogle likewise[17]

COL. DAVID WILLIAMSON[18] TO IRVINE.
Dear Sir:— I take the opportunity to make you acquainted with our retreat from the Sandusky plains,[19] June 6th. We were reduced to the necessity of making a forced march through their [the enemy’s] lines in the night, much in disorder; but the main body marched round the Shawanese camp and was lucky enough to escape their fire. They marched the whole nIght, and the next morning were re-enforced by some coInpa~ flies which I cannot give a particular account of, as they were so irregular and so confused; but the number lost, I think, cannot be ascertained at this time. I must acknowledge myself ever obliged to Major Rose for his assistance both in the field of action and in the camp. His character, in our camp, is estimable, and his bravery cannot be outdone. Our country must be ever obliged to General Irvine for his favor done in the late expedition. Major Rose will give you a particular account of our retreat.’ I hope when your honor takes into consideration the distress of the brave men in the present expedition, and the distress of our country in general, you will do us the favor to call the officers together, as our dependence is entirely upon you, and we are ready and wiling to obey your commands when called upon. I have nothing more particular to write you.
‘‘P. S.— Colonel Crawford, our commandant, we can give no account of since the night of the retreat.[20]/ [21]
LIEUT. ROSE TO IRVINE.
MINGO Bottom, June 13th, 1782.
Sir:— Those volunteers who marched from here on the 24th of May last, under the command of Colonel Wm. Craw-ford, are this moment returned, and recrossing the Ohio with Colonel Williamson. I ann very sorry to observe, they did not meet with that success which so spirited an enterprise and the heroic bravery of the greater part deserved.[22]
So small a body could only expect success by-surprising the enemy. We therefore begun a rapid and secret march in the straightest direction through the woods for the towns of San-dusky. Our horses soon tired under their heavy loads in those enormous hills and swamps, we had to cross. This obliged us to incline to the southward towards the Moravian towns, into a more level country, though more frequented by hunters and warriors. On crossing the Muskingum [Tuscarawas branch] on the 28th, we were unfortunate enough to be discovered by the enemy, which gave them sufficient time to prepare for our reception and alarm the adjacent Indian nations. Notwithstanding our small numbers, amounting in the whole to four hundred and eighty, we continued our march with great precaution and met the enemy the 4th of June at the plains of Sandnsky. Our advanced light horse fell in with them a short distance from their town, and at 4 P. M., the action was general, close and hot. Both parties contended obstinately for a piece of woods, which the enemy was forced to quit at sunset, with the loss of several scalps. . We had five killed and nineteen wounded. The firing began early on the fifth. The enemy had received so severe a blow the preceding evening that he did not venture an attack, but contented himself to annoy us at a distance. We were so much encumbered with our wounded and sick, that the whole day was spent in their care and in preparing for a general attack the next night, which was thought dangerous with a part only. But our intentions were frustrated by the arrival of a large body of mounted rangers and two hundred Shawanese in the afternoon. As these succors rendered the enemy so vastly superior to us in numbers, and as they could collect all their forces in a circuit of about fifty niiles, who kept pouring in hourly from all quarters to their relief, prudence dictated a retreat. This was effected in the night of the 5th and morning of the 6th instant.
The whole body was formed to take up their line of march, and we had called in all our sentinels, when the enemy observing our intentions begun a hot fire. We secured all our wounded and retreated in four parties, of which that one suffered most, that retired along the common road between the encampments of the Shawanese and Delawares in our rear. In a body trained to the strictest discipline, some confusion would have arisen, upon such an occasion. Several were con sequently separated. But the main body was collected at day-break five miles from the place of action, on the ground where the town formerly stood. Here the command devolved upon Colonel Williamson, as Colonel Crawford was missing, whose loss we all regretted.
The enemy hung upon our rear through the plains. It was evidently their design to retard our march, until they could possess themselves of some advantageos ground in front, and so cut off our retreat, or oblige us to fight them to disadvantage. Though it was our business studiously to avoid engaging in the plains, on account of the enemyu’s superiority in light cavalry, they pressed our rear so hard, that we concluded upon a general and vigorous attack, whilst our light horse secured the entrance of the woods. In less than an hour the enemy gave way on all sides and never after attempted to molest us any more on our march. We had three killed and eight wounded in this action, besides several missing, who afterwards joined us again, before we crossed the Muskingum [Tuscarawas] on the 10th instant, between the two upper Moravian towns.
The unremitting activity of Colonel Williamson surmounted every obstacle and difficulty, in getting the wounded along. Several of them are in a dangerous condition and want imnmediate assistance, of which they have been deprived since time loss of Dr. Knight.
Since my arrival here, I find that different small parties who were separated from us either by the enemy or by fear, are arrived before us. Our loss will riot exceed thirty men, at a moderate computation, in killed and missing. Colonel Crawford has not been heard of since the night of the 5th instant, and I fear is among the killed.[23]
June 13, 1782
I proceeded on the next day, and about noon crossed the paths by which our troops had gone out; these paths are nearly East and West, but I went due North all that afternoon with a view to avoid the enemy.
Ina the evening I began to be very faint, and no wonder; I had been six days prisoner; the last two days of which I had eat nothing, and but very little the first three or four; there were wild gooseverries in abundance in the woods, but being unripe, required mastication, which at that time I was not able to perform on account of a blow received from an Indian on the jaw with the back of a tomahawk. There was a weed that grew plentifully in that place, the juice of which I knew to be grateful and nourishing; I gathered a bundle of the same, took up my lodging under a large spreading beech tree and having sucked plentifully of the juice, went to sleep.

[17] Journal of a Volunteer Expedition to Sandusky, Baron Rosenthal, “John Rose”.
[18] He was colonel, it will be remembered, of the 3d battalion of Washington county militia, and second in command upon the Sandusky expedition. He was a son of John Williamson, and was born in 1752, near Carlisle, Pennsylvania. He came to the western country when a boy; he afterward returned home and persuaded his parents to emigrate beyond the Alleghanies. They settled upon Buffalo creek, in what was subsequently Washington county, about twelve miles from the Ohio. At that point, David had a “station “ during the revolution, which, though often alarmed, was never attacked. From the commencement of Indian depredations, Williamson took an active part in the defense of the western border, having previously, during Dun-more’s war, held a captain’s commission. He was every where recognized as a true lover of his country — willing to make any sacrifice for its welfare. His activity in guarding the defenseless inhabitants of the frontier settlements was untiring. After the return of the Sandnsky expedition, he was soon actively engaged in watching the exposed border — continuing his services until the restoration of peace. He was afterward popular with the people of his county, being first, county lieutenant and then elected, in 1787, to the office of sheriff. He was unsuccessful, however, in business, and died in poverty.
[19] That is, the retreat of the volunteers who, under Col. Wm. Crawford, had marched against Sandusky. The plains he speaks of, lie within the present counties of Crawford, Marion and Wyandot, Ohio, south and west of the Sandusky river, seldom reaching to its banks. This stream, however, may be said to bound them on the north in Crawford, and on the east in Wyandot county. In the former county, their eastern boundary is the Olentangy; in Wyandot, their western boundary is the Tymochtee. In general terms, we may bound the plains on the north by the Sandnsky, on the east by the Olentangy, on the south by the Scioto, and on the west by the Tymochtee. Their extreme length, east and west, is something over forty miles; their greatest breadth, north and south, nearly twenty miles.
[20] Crawford, as previously mentioned, became separated from most of the volunteers; and, on the 7th of June, 1782, while endeavoring to make his way back, in the rear of his retreating forces; was captured by the savages, being four days after, tortured to death, in what is now Wyandot county. Ijpon the return march of the main force, the command devolved upon Williamson, who, after his arrival at the Mingo bottom, on the west side of the Ohio, sent the above letter to Irvine as his official report of the expedition,— but, to a great extent, as he indicates, leaving it to Lieut. Rose to give the details.

[22] This letter and the one immediately preceding are the American official reports of Crawford’s campaign against Sandusky, both of which were written at the Mingo bottom on the west side of the Ohio.

[25] Starlight, a Confederate steamer, was active in the Mississippi River. She reportedly transported released Confederate prisoners of war in the region of Port Hudson during early May 1863. On 26 May she was seized in Thompson’s Creek, north of Port Hudson, by Union Army forces commanded by Colonel Prince. During the remainder of 1863 and 1864 Starlight was employed by the Union as a transport in the Red and Mississippi Rivers. (Civil War Naval Chronology 1861-1865.
