Description
Photographic
reproduction
of an
engraved
portrait
depicting
Josiah
Harmar
, ca.
1790-1799
. The
original
portrait
was
engraved
by
John
Sartain
and
based
on a
painting
by
Raphael
Peale
.
Harmar
served
in the
Continental
Army
during
the
American
Revolution
. He was then
appointed
commander
of the
American
Army
in the
Ohio
Country
where
there was
conflict
between
Native
Americans
and
white
settlers
. In
1790
Harmar
launched
an
attack
on the
Miami
,
Shawnee
,
Delaware
and
other
native
people
in
western
Ohio
.
Initially
the
tribes
retreated
, but a
successful
counter
attack
led
by
Little
Turtle
of the
Miami
routed
Harmar's
troops
and they
retreated
.
Because
of the
heavy
casualties
his
troops
suffered
, in
1791
he was
court-martialed
for
misconduct
during
the
campaign
.
Though
the
court-martial
cleared
him of
all
charges
,
Harmar
retired
from the
army
in
1792
. He
returned
to
Pennsylvania
and
served
as the
state's
Adjutant
General
from
1793
until
1799
. He
died
August
20
,
1813
.
