A Man Among Men

History is really a compilation of stories, and an interesting story on Ohio history I ran across the other day follows.
It seems three men paddled a canoe along an Ohio river sometime in the late 1700s or maybe early 1800s. Then from the bank, Indians opened fire with their muskets. One of the three men in the canoe was mortally wounded. Yet, he had enough strength and concern for the other fellows that he had them lie flat in the canoe as the Indians continued their attack. He, the badly wounded man, then paddled the canoe to safety. Once safely away from the Indians, he pulled over the to river bank and died soon there after.
The two surviving men buried him there where he died, and sometime later they returned and erected a monument in his honor.
Grand story. I'm checking to see if the monument is still there.
