History of Wayne County (Indiana) by Andrew W. Young-published by Robert Clark & Co. 1872

p. 75-77.

During the war of 1812, Indian alarms were frequent, and the inhabitants were kept constantly in a case of disquiet. The lands purchased in 1809" called the "Twelve mile purchase," were settled rather slowly. A few settlements were commenced before the lands were surveyed. But during the war few ventured far beyond the older settlements. Notwithstanding, forts and block houses were built for the protection of the inhabitants, many, especially those in the more sparsely settled places, left their new homes, and removed to places of greater security. Some took up a temporary abode among the denser population of Wayne township; others passed the state line into Ohio.

After a series of successes which attended our arms against the British and the Indians, among which was the capture by, Commodore Perry, of the British fleet on Lake Erie in 1813, the Miamis, Pottawattamies, and other tribes, sued for peace with the United States. An armistice was agreed on; and in July, 1814, a council was held at Greenville, Ohio, where a treaty of peace was negotiated by Gen. Wm. H. Harrison and Gov. Lewis Cass, Commissioneers on the part of the United States. There were present at this council about 4,000 souls, chiefly Miamis, Weas, Delawares, Shawnees, and Wyandots.

To the incidents connected with the war of 1812, related in the foregoing pages, it is deemed proper to add, that this war was a source of much trouble to the Friends. They were much harassed on account of their refusal to do military duty. Some were repeatedly drafted and fined; and their property was sold at an enormous sacrifice to pay the fines. A valuable wagon, for instance, was sold at auction for five dollars, and various other kinds of property in about the same proportion. Four young men were imprisoned in the county jail in winter; and to extort from them a promise of compliance, fire was denied them. Their sufferings must have been intolerable but for the partial relief afforded them by Dr. David F. Sackett, the county Recorder, and Jesse Bond, then living where Earlham College now is; the former handing hot bricks through the grates, and the latter blankets. "Suits," says Judge Hoover, "were subsequently brought against the officers for false imprisonment. The trials were had in Brookville, in Franklin County. They all recovered damages; but I have every reason to believe that the whole of the damages and costs was paid out of moneys extorted from others of the Friends. To cap the climax of absurdity and outrage, the gentlemen officers arrested an old man named Jacob Elliott, and tried him by court-marital for treason, found him guilty and sentenced him to be shot! But gave him a chance to run away in the dark, they firing off their guns at the same time." Many other instances of cruelty to these people might be given.

Jacob married Elizabeth in 1751 in Lancaster County, Pa. Elizabeth was born in 1733. She died on Oct 28 1791.
