AUTOSSEE, BATTLE OF. An engagement of the Creek Indian War of 1813-14, be- tween the American forces under Gen. John Floyd in command of the Georgia Militia, and the Creeks, fortified in the Indian town of Autossee, south of the Tallapoosa River,

HISTORY OF ALABAMA

near the mouth of Calebee Creek, in Macone County. ( See Atasia. ) It was fought Novem- ber 29, 1813, and represents the principal contribution of Georgia to the defense of the Mississippi Territory in the Creek War.

In obedience to a call from the Federal Government, Gov. David B. Mitchell of Georgia assemhled a large force of militia. These were placed under Brig. Gen. John Floyd. After much delay they reached the Chattahoochee, where they huilt Fort Mit- chell. Here they were reinforced by 400 friendly Indians, under Gen. Wm. McIntosh and Mad Dog's Son (not Mad Dragon's Son). The successes of Gen. Jackson in the Coosa Valley had driven numbers of Indians from that quarter. Many of these had joined other hostiles at Autossee.

Gen. Floyd left Fort Mitchell on November 23, 1813, for an attack. He had 950 white troops and 400 Indians. Reaching the vicinity on the morning of November 29th, he as- saulted the place, and routed the enemy in an engagement lasting about three hours. The Indians fought fiercely, but lost about 200 killed. The town was set on fire, and about 400 houses, many of excellent Indian archi- tecture and filled with articles of value, were burned. The losses of the Georgians were 11 killed and 54 wounded. Several friendly Indians were killed and wounded. After burying his dead, Gen. Floyd hegan the return March to Fort Mitchell. He had hardly started, however, before the Indians fell upon his rear, but they were soon dispersed.

AVIATION REPAIR DEPOT, MONTGOM- ERY. Government post and military reserva- tion for the repairing and manufacture of parts for airships. The United States government in the Spring of 1918 through the War Depart- ment selected Montgomery as "the ideal spot" for the location of a repair depot for what was at that time known as the Southeastern de- partment. The government agents selected the same site, with additional land that was used by the Wright brothers in making experiments at Montgomery, with "gliders" when aviation was in its infancy.

The James Alexander Construction Com- pany in 45 working days erected a complete repair depot with everything in readiness for the installation of machinery.

The War Department sent Major Stiles M. Decker to take command of the Depot, which was turned over to the U. S. government on July 4. On July 21, the 882nd and 883rd repair squadrons from Kelly Field, San An- tonio, Texas, arrived and found a general plan of what was to he done awaiting them. Two additional squadrons arrived on July 26th, namely, the 879th and 880th squadrons from Camp Greene, Charlotte, N. C. Al- though the last two squadrons were not ex- perts, they were taken in hand by the first two arrivals and in a short time their work

equaled in excellence that of their teachers. On August 7, 100 expert mechanics were re- ceived from the school for enlisted men at St. Paul, Minn. These men had been espe- cially trained as motor mechanics, ignition and tire experts.

The first ships to be repaired came to the Depot from Gerstner Field, Lake Charles, La., and arrived while the machinery was being set up. Shortly after this time the Field was visited hy a cyclone which attained a wind velocity of 96 miles an hour and did much damage to the buildings. However, under the direction of Major Decker the nec- essary repairs were made and the Depot was soon working with the usual rapidity that would be found in any great American in- dustry.

Major Decker was relieved from duty on November 27, 1918, and ordered to Middle- ton, Pa., where he was to assume new duties at the Aviation General Supply Depot. Capt. Louis G. Hawley, commander of the 879th squadron, the ranking officer on the Field, assumed command, remaining in such capac- ity until December 14, when he was relieved by Major Louis R. Knight. Major Knight came to the Depot from the Armorers School at Wilhur Wright Field, Dayton, Ohio.

A number of civic and patriotic organiza- tions cooperated with the officers at the Aviation Repair Depot in making the life of the officers and enlisted men as pleasant as possible. Among those most prominent may he mentioned the Chamber of Commerce, War Camp, Community Service, the Girls' Patriotic League, Rotary Club, and Amer- ican Red Cross. The Y. M. C. A., through its members and staff, together with the ladies who operated the Hostess House, made for the men life as near homelike as they could.

During the time that Major Knight was in command of the Field, a number of ships making cross country flights from the Pacific to the Atlantic stopped at the Field, and au- thorities there were informed that photo- graphs were being taken along the routes and that from these aerial mail routes would he chosen.

Major Knight was succeeded hy Major Frank E. Lackland, who pursued the same lines that had been inaugurated by Major Knight, and his work at the Field was very successful.

Upon his transfer Major W. J. Fitzmaurice took command of the Depot and is in charge of its affairs at this time.

Upon the cessation of hostilities between the United States and the Central powers the work of demobilization was handled with rapidity hy the officers of the Depot. Ex- service men were given the places of soldiers that had been discharged and now there is only one repair squadron at the Field, and several hundred civilian employees.

BACHCHA CHUKKA. A temporary Choc- taw settlement or camp, the site of Tusca- homa on the Tombighee River, after the com- ing of the English. The name signifies Ridge Houses, because the houses, "Chukka," were situated on a ridge, "bachcha." In the text of Romans' Florida, p. 328, the name is spelled Batcha-Chooka, and on his map Batcha Chuka.

BAHAIS. A religious body, founded by Ali Mohammed, a Persian, as forerunner, and brought to completed organization by Baha Ullah, as the one whom Ali had foretold- "Him whom God would manifest." Its mis- sion is the spiritual unity of mankind; its teachings are for all men; and its extension is accomplished through assemblies. It has no houses of worship, but halls are used for service. In 1890 it was not represented in the United States. The census of 1910 re- ported, for Alabama, 1 hall located in Bir- mingham, and 29 members, of whom 14 were males and 15 females.

BAINE COUNTY. See Etowah County. BAKER COUNTY. See Chilton County.

BALDWIN COUNTY. Created by the Mis- sissippi Territorial Legislature, December 21, 1809. It was the third county formed in the State, and its territory was taken from Wash- ington County. As originally constituted, it lay wholly west of the Tombigbee River, east of the Mississippi line, north of the 31st parallel, and south of the fifth township line, including all the country south of that line in the present Clarke County. The Alabama Territorial Legislature, February 7, 1818, en- larged its boundaries by adding to it so much of Greene County, Mississippi, as was thrown into the Alabama Territory by the location of the boundary line. The first State legisla- ture, December 13, 1819, still further en- larged it by adding all the country south of Little River as far east as the line between ranges seven and eight, and north of the 31st parallel. On December 16, 1820, all that

part of the county lying south of Washington County and west of the Tombigbee and Mobile Rivers was added to Mobile County; that part lying in the Fork of the Alabama and Tom- higbee Rivers was added to Monroe, and that part of Mobile County east of Mobile Bay was added to Baldwin. By act of December 21, 1832, the northern boundary was more definitely fixed. In 1868, the northeastern part of the county was cut out for the forma- tion of Escambia County. Its area is 1,595 square miles, or 1,020,800 acres.

The county was named for Abraham Bald- win, a distinguished citizen of Georgia, so given in deference to the wishes of the early settlers of the county, many of whom were from that State.

On the organization of the county, the seat of justice was established at McIntosh Bluff, on the Tombigbee. Here it remained until December 16, 1820, when it was transferred to Blakeley. The same act directed the county court of Mobile to sell the court house at McIntosh Bluff, and the proceeds to divide equally between that county and the coun- ties of Baldwin and Monroe. The act named Cyrus Sibley, James W. Peters, Francis B. Stockton, Benjamin J. Randall, and Samuel Hall as commissioners to purchase a site and to erect a court house in Blakeley, at not exceeding $2,000.

In 1868, August 11, the county commis- sioners were directed to select a new loca- tion for the county seat on the eastern shore of Mobile Bay, within two miles of Mon- trose. Daphne was chosen, but probably not until after 1870. The legislature, February 5, 1901, named Bay Minette as the seat of justice.

Location and Physical Description .- It lies in the southwestern part of the State. It is bounded on the north by Clarke and Monroe Counties, on the east by Escambia County, Ala., and Escambia County, Fla., on the west by Clarke, Washington, and Mobile Counties, and Mobile Bay, and on the south by the Gulf of Mexico. The county is practically sur- rounded by water, being separated from the adjacent counties on the north by Little River; on the west by Alabama River and Mobile Bay; on the east, for most of its length, by Perdido River and Bay. Its length from north to south is about 72 miles, and its extreme width nearly 32 miles, making its area approximately 1,585 square miles, or 1,014,400 acres. Most of this area is an ele- vated plain, with a gentle slope toward the south. In the northwestern part of the county the slope to the Alabama River Valley is abrupt, amounting to an escarpment. This valley includes approximately 222 square miles of the county's area, and about 47 square miles of this consist of second bottoms lying from 10 to 20 feet above the overflow, or swamp lands. The soil is mostly sandy loam, of average fertility, and especially adapted to truck farming. It has fine graz- ing lands. The county has no important mineral deposits. There are numerous streams draining its surface into the Gulf of Mexico. The most important are Tensas,

HISTORY OF ALABAMA

Fish, Blackwater, Styx and Little Rivers, and White House, Horseneck, Bay Minette, Tur- key, Majors, Pine Log, and Hollinger Creeks. Away from the river and creek bottoms, long- leaf pine is the principal timber. There are some cuban pines in the southern part of the county. In the river and creek bottoms, white oak, ash, cottonwood, sweet gum and hickory are the prevailing trees.

Aboriginal History .- At the advent of the French, Mobilian Indians were found settled on the east side of Mobile River in the northern part of the county, and the name Tawasha Creek may evidence a transient set- tlement of the Touacha Indians at that place, during some period of the French dominion. About 1715 Bienville settled the Taensa Indians on Tensaw River, where they re- mained until 1764, when they followed the Freuch across the Mississippi River. Apart from these settlements the county seems to have been without Indian Inhabitants, and to have been used as a common hunting ground by the contiguous tribes. But the mounds and numerous shell banks found along the Gulf coast, Mobile Bay, and the river banks, are sufficient witnesses of occu- pancy by a prehistoric population. Remains are to be found on Mobile, Perdido and Bon Secour Bays, on Tensaw, Battle, Bon Secour and Fish Rivers, and on the islands and bayous along the gulf coast, as well as on some of the large creeks flowing through the inland plantations. Mounds have been lo- cated at the following points: burial mound near Josephine on Perdido Bay; a burial mound on extremity of Bear Point in Per- dido Bay; burial mounds and sites on Tensaw River; burial mound one mile from mouth of Perdido Bay, and half mile inland; large mound, 40 feet high, near a creek, on the McMillan place, 8 miles from Stockton; mounds at and above Stockton on Tensaw River on the plantation of Maj. Robert Farmer, British commandant; a mound 50 feet high, the largest in this section, on island at Battle Creek; mounds on Simpson Island, also near Starke's Wharf, near Fish River and on Seymours Bluff. Shell-banks and shell-heaps, containing aboriginal remains are found on Simpson Island at mouth of Mobile River; on the eastern shore of Mobile Bay, one mile from Point Clear; on east bank of Tensaw River near old Blakeley in T. 3, S., R. 1, E .; extensive banks near Gasque on Bon Secour Bay; deposits at Blakeley; on Bon Secour River and at Strong's Bayou. These shell heaps are in the nature of kitchen middens and in most cases contain pottery and broken artifacts.

Settlement and Later History .- The his- tory of Baldwin County is inseparably asso- ciated with two great Indian tribes, the Alibamos and Creeks, with three great Euro- pean nations, France, Spain and England. and at different times and under peculiar circum- stances, with the Americans, as friends or enemies. The first American settlements in the county were made on Lake Tensaw and on Tensaw River, mostly by Tory families which migrated from Georgia and South Carolina

during the American Revolution, although some came after that struggle, leaving their homes in consequence of Whig intolerance. Intermingled with these Tensaw settlers, how- ever, were Whig families. Some of the family names of the settlers have been preserved- Byrne, Easley, Hall, Kilcrease, Linder, Mims, Pierce, Sibley, Steadham, Stockton and Holmes. Of these, Captain John Linder was the most prominent. He was a native of Switzerland, and was in the British service for several years as engineer and surveyor. During the Revolution, Gen. Alexander Mc- Gillivray assisted him in removing his family and numerous negro slaves, and in settling them on Lake Tensaw. The settlers were later reinforced by the arrival into their midst of several Indian countrymen, with their Indian wives and halfbreed children. Benjamin Durant was a type of these new- comers. He was a Carolinian who had mar- ried Sophia, a sister of Gen. McGillivray.

The first saw mills in the county were owned by Byrne and by Joshua Kennedy. They were in existence in 1813, but no doubt had been erected several years previously. The first cotton gin was established in 1803 by John and William Pierce at the Boat Yard on Lake Tensaw. Another cotton gin was built at McIntosh's Bluff on the Tombigbee, but the year of its erection is not known.

Baldwin County has been the theatre of some of the most striking events in Alabama history. Across its northern border in 1560 marched the Tristan de Luna expedition (q. v.) from Mobile Bay on its way to found the short-lived colony of Nanipacna, located most probably on Boykins' Ridge in Wilcox County. About a century and a half later the soldiers of Bienville passed through it in their cam- paigns against the Alibamos. In August, 1813, near Tensaw Lake the Fort Mims mas- sacre (q. v.) took place, the most fearful tragedy in Alabama history. The next year, in September, 1844, occurred the investment and bombardment of Fort Bowyer by Col. Nichols in the extreme southwest part of the county, in which Col. Nichols was driven off with great loss by the American garrison, commanded by Major William Lawrence, of the U. S. Army. Fort Bowyer was occupied later by Gen. Packenham's army and fleet, after their defeat at New Orleans, followed by its surrender February 12, 1815. But it was held but a few days, as news came of the declaration of peace. The site of Fort Bowyer was subsequently used in the erection of Fort Morgan, noted for its heroic defense by the Confederates against a powerful Fed- eral force and fleet in April, 1864, contempo- rary with and paralleled by the equally heroic defense of Blakeley.
