Note 89 — Evans’s Pedestrious Tour of Four Thousand Miles—1818 (continued 2)

Upper Sandusky was formerly the seat of a Wyandot settlement. Near there, Crawford was defeated by the Indians (June, 1782) and subsequently tortured to death. General Harrison built a temporary fort at that point during the War of 1812–15. For the Wyandot villages on the Sandusky, see Weiser’s Journal, volume i of our series, note 26.—Ed.
