This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1889 Excerpt: ...in 1875-76. Black Hawk. R. M. Sully, artist. Born in 1767; died Oct. 3, 1838. The original portrait, of which this is an improved replica, was painted by Sully at Fortress Monroe, while Black Hawk was confined there in 1833. Black Hawk was the leader of " the British band" of Sac Indians, who had long had their home at the junction of the Rock river with the Mississippi. Obliged to move to the west side of the Mississippi in 1831 in accordance with treaty stipulation, Black Hawk re-entered Illinois in the spring of 1832, thus giving rise to an Indian war in which the Sacs were driven up the Rock river and in their flight westward from Lake Koshkonong suffered disastrous defeats at Wisconsin Heights (Prairie du Sac), and at the mouth of the Bad Ax river (near the present village of Victory, Vernon county). The latter engagement closed the Black Hawk war, and the leader, being now captured, was confined for a time at Jefferson Barracks and at Fortress Monroe, being finally placed for safe keeping in the custody of Keokuk, head chief of the Foxes. For an account of the war, see Wisconsin Historical Collections, vol. XII., pp. 216-265. Bowman, Jonathan. Conrad Heyd, artist. Born at Charleston, Montgomery county, N. Y., May 16, 1828.
