rifle and hunting he was a hunter born and loved the solitude of the forest strong brave lithe inured to hardship and privation he traced his steps through the pathless forest sought out the hiding places of panther bear and wolf and was the match of any indian in the sagacity with which he detected the footsteps of the red man about 1755 he married rebecca bryan and set up his own log cabin but displeased with the encroachments of civilization on his solitude and incited by the glowing accounts brought by john finley who had penetrated into the unknown regions of kentucky formed a company of six kindred spirits and bidding adieu to his family and the comforts of home on 1 may 1769 set out on his perilous journey of exploration america s four republics the more or less united states by

served as the republic s first president and commander in chief after numerous adventures with the indians having become intimately acquainted with the character of the country established an enviable reputation for sagacity and integrity on important frontier service assigned to him by lord dunmore in the campaign against the indians usually called lord dunmore s war and constructed a strong fort on the left bank of kentucky river which he named boonesborough he determined to bring his wife and family to the new home some of his neighbors joined him and he conducted the party numbering upward of thirty safely to boonesborough without having encountered any other difficulties than such as are common to this passage daniel boone founded boonesborough while he worked for richard henderson of the transylvania company on one occasion boone with an armed party of thirty men had gone for a supply of salt to a place called salt licks nearly 100 miles north of boonesborough and was captured with twenty seven of his men by a band of more than 100 indian warriors led by two frenchmen they carried them first to old chillicothe on the miami and then to detroit where they surrendered for a ransom all their prisoners except boone him they took back to old chillicothe where the great blackfish a renowned shawanese chief adopted him into his family under an imposing but painful ceremonial all his hair except a tuft three or four inches in diameter on the crown of the head was plucked out that tuft was allowed to grow to the length of the warlock dressed with feathers and ribbons an ablution in the river was supposed to cleanse him from the taint of white blood a coat of paint on his face and a solemn charge from blackfish completed the rite after a prolonged and anxious residence among them during which he was kindly treated he discovered their intention of marching upon boonesborough and resolved at the peril of certain death in the event of recapture to attempt his escape and save his family and friends chased by 450 indians he performed that daring feat in the forty third year of his age and thus simply records it on the 16th of june before sunrise i departed in the most secret manner and arrived at boonesborough on the 20th after a journey of 160 miles during which i had but one meal at the fort he learned that his wife and children despairing of ever seeing him again had returned and safely reached her father s home in north carolina the indians assailed the fort but were repelled with loss and retreated boone then in the autumn of 1778 rejoined his family on the yadkin and returned with them to kentucky in 1780 the country though well settled was still unsafe and soon after his return boone and his brother squire were surprised by indians squire was killed and scalped and daniel had a narrow escape a sanguinary engagement called the battle of the blue licks took place in 1782 in which boone s two sons fought at his side one of them was killed and the other severely wounded boone was full of expedients and on one occasion extricated himself from four armed indians by blinding them with tobacco dust kentucky was admitted into the union 4 feb 1791 and in the survey of the state the title to boone s land was disputed the case was decided against him and stung to the quick by the wrong he had again to seek a new home which he established at point pleasant between the ohio and the great kanawha but in 1795 he removed to missouri then a spanish possession and received not only the appointment of commandant of the femme osage district but a grant of 8 000 acres the spanish possessions passed into the hands of napoleon who sold them to the united states and in the survey that followed the spanish grant of boone s lands was pronounced invalid an appeal to the legislature of kentucky and another to congress resulted in a grant by the latter of 850 acres boone was then seventy five years of age hale and strong the charm of the hunter s life clung to him to the last and in his eighty second year he went on a hunting excursion to the mouth of kansas river he had made his own coffin and kept it under his bed and after his death they laid him in it to rest by the side of his wife who had passed away seven years before on 13 sept 1845 their remains were removed to the cemetery near frankfort kentucky a few miles from the fort of boonesborough by the concurrent action of the citizens of frankfort and the legislature of kentucky cemetery in frankfort kentucky where daniel and rebecca bryan boone were re interred his son enoch born in boonesborough kentucky in 1777 d 8 march 1862 was the first white male child born in kentucky daniel boone s wife with her daughters went to live with her husband in his palisaded fort

made their escape but on returning to their camp they found it plundered and deserted by their companions who had gone back to carolina stuart was soon killed by the indians but boone being joined by his brother they remained and prosecuted the business of hunting during the winter without further molestation his brother going home for supplies in may 1770 he remained alone in the deep solitude of the western wilderness until his return with ammunition horses july 27th during this period this wild man of the woods though greeted every night with the howlings of wolves was delighted in his excursions with the survey of the beauties of the country and found greater pleasure in the solitude of wild nature than he could have found amid the hum of the most elegant city with his brother he traversed the country to cumberland river it was not until march 1771 that he returned to his family resolved to conduct them to the paradise which he had explored having sold his farm he set out with his own and 5 other families sept 25 1773 and was joined in powell s valley by 40 men after passing over two mountains called powell s and walden s through which as they ranged from the north east to the south west passes were found and approaching the cumberland the rear of the company was attacked by the indians on the 10th of october when six men were killed among whom was the eldest son of colonel boone one man was also wounded and the cattle were scattered this disaster induced them to retreat about 40 miles to the settlement on clinch river where he remained with his family until june 6 1774 when at the request of gov dunmore he conducted a number of surveyors to the falls of ohio on this tour of 800 miles he was absent two months after this he was entrusted by the governor during the campaign against the shawanese with the command of three forts early in 1775 at the request of a company in north carolina he attended a treaty with the cherokee indians at wataga in order to make of them the purchase of lands on the south side of the tennessee river after performing this service he was employed to mark out a road from the settlements on the holston to the kentucky river while thus employed at the distance of about 15 miles from what is now boonesborough the party was attacked march 20 and 23 1775 by the indians who killed four and wounded five another man was killed in

men on both sides several were killed and wounded but the enemy were repulsed as they were also july 19 from logan s fort of 15 men which was besieged by 200 the arrival of 25 men from carolina and in august of 100 from virginia gave a new aspect to affairs and taught the savages the superiority of the long knives as they called the virginians jan 1 1778 he went with 30 men to the blue licks on the licking river to make salt for the garrison feb 7 being alone he was captured by a party of 102 indians and 2 frenchmen he capitulated for his men and they were all carried to chillicothe on the little miami whence he and 10 men were conducted to detroit where he arrived march 30 the governor hamilton treated him with much humanity and offered 1001 for his redemption but the savages refused the offer from affection to their captive being carried back to chillicothe in april he was adopted as a son in an indian family he assumed the appearance of cheerfulness but his thoughts were on his wife and children aware of the envy of the indians he was careful not to exhibit his skill in shooting in june he went to the salt springs on the sciota on his return to chillicothe he ascertained that 450 warriors were preparing to proceed against boonesborough he escaped june 16 and arrived at the fort june 20th having travelled 160 miles in 4 days with but one meal his wife had returned to

surrender the next day boone having a garrison of only 50 men announced his resolution to defend the fort while a man was alive they then proposed that 9 men should be sent out 60 yards from the fort to enter into a treaty and when the articles were agreed upon and signed they said it was customary on such occasions as a token of sincere friendship for two indians to shake every white man by the hand accordingly two indians approached each of the nine white men and grappled with the intent of making him a prisoner but the object being perceived the men broke away and re entered the fort an attempt was now made to undermine it but a counter trench defeated that purpose atlast on the 20th the enemy raised the siege having lost 37 men of boone s men two were killed and four wounded we
