|||||||||||||||||||||||
| Description |
English: During the early 1850s, hostility grew between the native peoples and the new settlers in the Puget Sound region. The "Decatur" and several other government ships were moved to the area to protect the settlers. On January 26, 1856, following word of a planned attack on Seattle, troops on the "Decatur" fired howitzers into the forest beyond Third Avenue where a group of angry Native Americans had gathered. The Indians retreated, burning buildings as they went. This image shows a plan of Seattle at the time of this conflict. The U.S.S. Decatur is drawn off the coast. Handwritten on mount: Plan of Seattle at time of Indian war Jan 1856. Caption by MOHAI staff.
