River Raisin, Mich. (Michigan, United States) (search for this): entry river-raisin-mich
River Raisin, Mich. Is remarkable in history as the place of a massacre on Jan. 23. 1813.

After a severe action Winchester surrendered, under promise of protection from the Indians. But Proctor marched off, leaving no guard for the Americans. His Indians returned, and killed and scalped a large number of them. The American loss was over 300 killed (mostly after the fight), and the rest were made prisoners. The British lost 24 killed and 158 wounded.
