1 INDIANA SOCIETY OF THE SONS OF THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION HOOSIER PATRIOT Volume XLIV No. 2 January 2013 Revised Indianapolis, Indiana The Hoosier Patriot is a quarterly publication of the Indiana Society of the Sons of the American Revolution. While the editors and contributors strive to provide accurate and timely information, please consult local chapters and the Indiana Society web site for updated and additional information concerning specific meetings and events. Greetings Compatriots: I sincerely hope you had a wonderful Christmas and wish you the very best for the New Year. I can tell you that those words have new meaning for me since July. I would like to thank all of the Chapters and Compatriots that sent me well wishes via and snail mail. The cards were wonderful and meant more than you might imagine. The personal calls visits were so much appreciated and at a time when I could not get out. On a personal note: While I was a patient at the VA, on Veterans Day I was visited by a group of young girls who brought me a hand made skull cap (watch cap) a piece of candy and a handmade thank you card. They were a part of a group honoring veterans on that day. Although I was not able to interact with the group, my family thanked them and I wear that cap each time I go out. This experience has made it quite clear that as an organization, we need a precise way to monitor and provide well wishes and support to Compatriots that find themselves confined to a hospital or at home for various reasons. A benevolent committee that notifies members of those Compatriots that are home bound and provides for home visitations would be a wonderful thing. I know how much I appreciated them. Anyone interested in providing leadership to such a group, please contact me at and we can work out the details. WREATH S ACROSS AMERICA: Thank you all Compatriots who participated in Wreath s Across America. All of your efforts are much appreciated and represent the best of the SAR. Madison National Cemetery is fortunate to have your attention. Ohio Valley Chapter T. Rex Legler II David Benton Chapter Edward E. Hitchcock Daniel Guthrie Chapter John Hay Chapter Robert D. Howell Sr. James C. Arnold 1
2 MEMBERSHIP: In 2012 our membership has grown by 129 new compatriots. That is up from 56 new in Our genealogists have done a wonderful job and members have done a great job of recruiting. Please take these new members under your wings and get them involved in the Chapter and in projects. I have a challenge for each Chapter. I would like the INSSAR to donate 1000 Books and Magazines to the Indianapolis Roudebush VA hospital prior to the end of April Please help me by collecting at the Chapter and then I will get them picked up. If you know of any shut in Compatriots or veterans that would like some magazines or books, please let me know and it will be done. These are things this committee can support. There will be special recognition for the Chapter submitting the most books and magazines. I would like to see the INSSAR raise more books and magazines for the other VA Hospitals and clinics across the State. I have not heard from any compatriots wishing to help refinish the Color Guard flags. Please contact Bob Howell if you can help with this project. NEW: Any compatriot that would like to do a spring fishing trip to Canada please let me know. It would be a wonderful trip and many stories could be told. Fly into wilderness cabin with all of the amenities. January meeting: The January meeting has been changed to the New Palestine American Legion Post 182/ Lions Club.

5 COL. AUGUSTIN DE LA BALME CEREMONY In November 1780, allegedly under secret orders from General George Washington, Colonel Augustin de La Balme, and a body of 104 men from Kaskaskia and Vincennes, raided the British stores at Kekionga (present day Fort Wayne). Leaving a detachment to guard the captured stores, his force marched out over the Eel River trail, the same path Colonel John Hardin followed ten years later. The Miami Indians, literally up in arms about this intrusion, destroyed the detachment left at Kekionga and attacked La Balme near the Eel River Trading Post. There his force was surrounded by a large body of warriors led by Chief Little Turtle. La Balme and his men fortified themselves on the banks of the Eel River just north of this location. After several days of conflict, they were defeated by an overwhelming force. The remains of Colonel de La Balme and approximately forty militiamen forever belong to the Eel River. The Indiana Sons of the American Revolution joined with the Col. Augustin De La Balme Chapter, NSDAR on November 3 in Whitley County for the annual dedication ceremony. A brass and stone marker placed by the Daughters of the American Revolution in 1930, reads: "In memory of Col. Augustin de La Balme and his soldiers who were killed in battle with the Miami Indians under Little Turtle at this place, Nov. 5, 1780." Pictured below IN DAR State Regent Jeanie Hornung brings greetings, the Color Guard perform a salute. INSSAR Color Guard in attendance and other INSSAR members are pictured with the marker. 5

12 INSSAR LADIES AUXILIARY Indiana Society Color Guard The Indiana Society Color Guard is probably best known for the color and pageantry their uniforms and flags bring to a parade, grave dedication or other community event. Emotions can range anywhere from children's questions and smiles to tears from a veteran's pride and memories. While all of this is true and important, one cannot overlook the wonderful side effect of fellowship with others who share common interests and passions. New members are encouraged for local and statewide participation. There are loaner uniforms available and participation and travel is limited only by your own time and energy. Please consider serving in the Color Guard and experiencing the fellowship of your compatriots and the appreciation of your community.
