	Battle of Fallen Timbers/Commemoration Speech
		Fallen Timbers was not an event that burst on the scene suddenly, leaving an indelible memory.
		Captain MisCampbell, just before he was killed, said of the battle, "all is confusion." The Indians of the legend are described as savages blocking the course of civilization, but in reality, the dead they left on the Fallen Timbers battlefield were scalped and mutilated by the civilized Americans.
		The British role in the battle is usually ignored, but the British participants were all volunteers; they were some of the last to retreat and their unit suffered a greater percentage of death than either Wayne's Legion or the Indian Confederacy.
