"The bend of the Tallapoosa. . .resembles in its cur a t u r e that of ahorse shoe. . . .Nature furnishes few si tu at io n s so eligible for defence[sic]; and barbarians h av e ne ve r r endered one more secure by art.

So did General Andrew Jackson of the Tennessee Milit i a d e s cribe the logand dirt barricade of the Red Stic k Cr ee k s o f Chief Menawa and theProphet Monahee. Jackso n's T enn es se e army of regulars of the Thirty-NinthU.S . Infant ry a n d mil itia brigades took the barricade by s torm, a t thepo in t of t he bayonet, in the bloodiest batt le of th e Cree k Wa r in the wilderness of Alabama. On Mar ch 27, 18 14, Jac kson' s army ut terly crushedthe Red Stic ks despit e their c onspic uous and s tubborn bravery; some 800-900 Cr eeks wer e kille d of the 1, 00 0 arrayed for ba ttle behin d thebarric ade. I n a battle earma rked by it s savagery, J ackson's arm y suffe red49 killed an d 154 wo unded, many mo rtally. The B attle o f the Horseshoe w ason e of the most s anguinary batt les of t he War of 1812, a n d is perhaps the bloodiest slaug hter eve r suffered by n ative s at the hand s of an American army. Th e power of th e Creek s or Muskoge e was forever bro ken by th ecarnage o n the bank s of the T allapoosa; the hop es of th e Red Sti cks wereimmola ted i n the fires of the wa rs desola tion . Andrew Jackson wo n t hefirst laurels of mar tial fam e b y his victory, which c a tapulted him intothe pu blic lim e light of the nation. Ni ne m onths later, on Janua ry 8,1 815 , Jackson vanquished t he Brit ish Redcoats at Cha lmet te i n the Battleof New Orl eans, th e last battle of t h e War o f 1812, and the wors t defeatthe B ritish suffere d o n Americ an soil. From th e spoils of Jackso n'svictor y at t he Horses hoe, Alabama w as carved in 1819 a s the t wenty-se condstat e admitted t o the Union, a state bor n f rom the em bers of w ar.Jackson 's martial fame from victo r ies over Re d Sticks a nd Redco ats led tothe White Hous e in 1 829, whe n he was ina ugurat ed as the seventh presi dent.

Cutting a road through the wilderness with axes, Jack s o n ' s Tennesseearmy marched from Fort Williams on the C oo s a d ra gging two cannon, andencamped at Emuckfaw Cree k o n M arc h 26 , 1814, the eve of the battle. Onthe morni ng o f Su nday , Mar ch 27th, Jackson detached General Joh n Coff ee'sb rigad e of 7 00 mounted militia infantry and C olone l Gideo n Morga n'sregi ment of 500 Cherokees with Ma jor Wi lliam Mc Intosh' s 100 "Wh ite" orLower Creeks to fo rd th e Tallapoos a and su rround th e bend, forestallingre inforc ements and r etreat fo r the Re d Sticks who were "p enned f or theslaught er," accor ding to J ackson. Jackso n and th e troops of theT hirty-Nint h U.S. Infa ntry and t he Tennes see Militia Infan try, about2 ,000 soldier s, mar ched int o the peninsula of t he Horsesho e to confrontt h e 1,000 Re d Sticks behind thei r log and dir t barricade . Ja ckson or deredhis cannon, a th ree-pounder an d a six- pounde r of Ca ptain Joel Parrish'sMi litia Artiller y Comp any, to bo mbar d the log wall from a k noll some 80yar d s distant from t h e barricade. Jackson's h ope was to brea c h thebarricade wi t h the withering fire o f artillery, a nd r out the "savage s"be hind, for he "endeav ored to leve ll [sic ] the works w ith . . .cannon, butin vai n." For tw o hours " a brisk. . . gallin g fire" of cannon an dmusketr y, a hail o f iron sho t and lea d balls splintere d the ba rk of thelogs , but th e "balls pass ed thro [sic] t he wor ks without shaki ng the wall." "Notwiths tanding ever y sho t penetrated. . .an d ca rried with itdeath . . .stil l suc h was the strength o f th e wall that it neve r shook , "ac cording to Jackson.

Some 70 three- and six-pound solid iron shot were f i r e d i n thecannonade, but the roundshot was embedded i n t h e l og s and dirt of therampart, the wall imperviou s t o a b reac h . Jackson contemplated a bayonetassault up on t he bar ricad e , with the spine of his army, the regul ars o fthe Th irty-N in th, as the vanguard. Meanwhile, Che rokee s and Whi te Cree kss wam the Tallapoosa despite it s frigi d depth an d swift c urre nt, stolecanoes from th e bank, an d ferried m ilitia sol dier s across the river.T hese troop s attacked th e Red Stick s fro m the rear, burn ing the cru de loghuts o f Tohopeka, an d capt uring the 30 0 women an d children wh o coweredthere. H owever , "notwit hstanding t he dtermined [ sic] bravery" of t hesesol diers , they wer e "wholly insuffi cient to dislodge t he enemy , " as theirf orce was too few t o overwhelm the Re d Sticks . J ackson or dered a chargeof in fantry with fixed b ayone ts. Th e comba t raged "muzzle to m uzzle,through the po rt -holes," w her e the lead "balls wer e welded to thebayone t s of. . .mus q uets [sic]," as the fi eld was shrouded i n sul phuroussmo ke . Major Lemuel Montgom ery of the Thirt y-Nint h was kill ed i n theassault, shot th rough the skul l, whil e Ensign S amuel H ouston wasgrievousl y wounded b y a barbe d arrow i n the thigh . The Red Stick s weredrive n from the b arricad e by the muske try and bayon ets, an d fled to thethic ket s around the bank s of the Tall apoos a. The cannon were d r agged tothe barricad e after i t fel l to the infantrys bay o nets, for Monahee wass hot i n th e mouth by a grape sho t an d so slain in the carnag e . Gr ape- andcanister shot w as fir ed from the cannon, al o n g with volleys of musketry firing l ead balls and bucks hot , w hich shuddered the Re d Sticks i n theirtimber refu ge.

The event could no longer be doubtful. The enemy alt h o [ s i c] many ofthem fought to the last with that kin d o f bra ve r y which desperationinspires, were at lengt h enti rely r out e d and cut to pieces. The wholemargin o f the ri ver whi ch s ur rounded the peninsular [sic] was s trewedwit h the sl ain .

Both officers and men who had the best opportuniti e s o f j u dging, believethe loss of the enemy in killed n o t t o fal l s hort of eight hundred. . . .

The battle may have been said to have continued with s e v e r ity for aboutfive hours; but the firing and slaught e r c on ti nued until it was suspendedby the darkness of t h e nig ht . Th us, according to General Jackson, was theba tt le aft e r the f all of the barricade, or, as he wrote t o h is wife ,R achel, " the carnage was dreadfull [sic]."
