Columbian Tragedy: Containing a Particular and Official account of the Brave and Unfortunate Officers and Soldiers, who were Slain and Wounded in this Ever-Memorable and Bloody Indian Battle, Perhaps the most shocking that has happened in America since its first Discovery; which continued Six Hours, with the most unremitted Fury and unparalleled Bravery on both Sides, having lasted from day-break, until near ten o'clock on Friday Morning, Nov. 4, 1791; between Two Thousand Americans, belonging to the United Army, and near Five Thousand Wild Indian Savages, at Miami-Village, near Fort-Washington, in the Ohio-Country, in which terrible and desperate Battle a most shocking Slaughter was made of Thirty-nine gallant American Officers and upwards of Nine Hundred brave youthful Soldiers, who fell gloriously fighting for their Country.--The Particulars and Elegy are now published in this Sheet by the earnest Request of the Friends to the Deceased Worthies, who died in Defence of their Country, not only as a Token of Gratitude to the Deceased Brave, but as a Perpetual Memorial of this important Event, on which, perhaps may very ei-sentially depend the future Freedom and Grandeur of Fifteen or Twenty States, that might, at some Period, be annexed to the American Union.
