Well done. Another addition to Peters fireside greatest hits collection :) The history lesson as always was interesting. At least the men who murdered Chief Logans family did not last long afterwards. We don't learn this on our schools.
You were wrong to think you didn't sing that song beautifuly, it brought tears to my eyes. Not only the beacause of the story, but also how you sang it. Hope to see you bring us more songs in the future. 😀
What a blessing to receive a new knife. What a very sad story. You sang and played the song beautifully. Nothing better on a rainy day to sit and sing around a nice warm fire.
They didn’t call it the dark and bloody ground for nothin. Sad how good peaceful men would change when entering the land of such violence. Here in southern Indiana I live in what once was considered part of that violent place. I Have the opportunity now to sit under the oaks that experienced that era. It’s hard for me to even imagine the evil deeds that men once showered on each other. So grateful for the peace and beauty the woods offers us today!! Thank you for that song I had never heard that before. You did it a fine justice!!
Your too kind Daniel, thank you. “ the peace and beauty the woods Offer us today” are indeed profound words. The world would be a much better place if people would simply sit under the oaks and take it all in!
I'm glad to hear that you were successful in your hunt, and sorry to hear that you lost your knife. It certainly was nice of him to send you another! Thanks for the song and the story, you're right, it sure was sad. You mentioned History By The Hearth, i think that's a wonderful catchphrase.
Wonderfully told and sung, Peter. Unfortunately, not the only blot or stain on my nations history in dealing with the indigenous people, who have, and still, walk this land, and paddle it's waters. I'm pleased that your hunt went well, my friend.
Always love your wee bits of history Peter. Your singing is pretty fair to. 👌🏻 Glad you had a successful hunt. Can't wait to see the hide tanning video. What a special friend you have in Nick. I'm sure you will be sending him a knife in kind when your forge is up and running. 🙏🏻✌🏻
I have to say Peter, your production quality, explanation of activities, history lessons are nothing less than Top Notch. No pun intended ha ha. It's truly family friendly and my younger grandson loves watching channel with me.
As im sitting in my garage processing my 3rd deer as well, i realise i should be outside by a fire , smoking my pipe and drinking a beer, while i listen to todays history lesson. Wish i had teachers like you when i was in school. As for your singing, i think it was a job well done sir!
Wow! Beautifully done. There are no words for the unconscionable acts that were done against the Indigenous people of North America, as there has been against indigenous people through out most of the world. As you so elequently sang this incredibly sad song, I could invision this story being played out. Unconscionable. Thank you for sharing. 🪶🍁💮
Those unconscionable acts were committed by both sides. Prior to The battle of Point Pleasant, the frontier in WV was ravaged by natives and they showed no mercy woman, children no matter.
@@2gpowell This is very true. Both sides perpetrated unthinkable acts. Regardless of which battle or who the offenders were, still remains unconscionable.
Very well done! I wonder just how different our countries would be if we had respected and accepted the Natives of North and South America. I am glad that I am not the only one who doesn't mind the rain. Sometimes it's nice to just relax and think. It's rainy and cloudy today as a matter of fact. I'm going to enjoy the fire, read a little and simply relax today. Thank you for sharing this song and story with us!
Glad to hear you got 3 deer. We did not even see one at our camp. Too warm the first week. I did share your wheel barrow joke and go a lot of laughs. I told it again during a company meeting and got a few more laughs. Thanks for sharing.
Greetings Peter and Cathy; Thanks for another great episode from your Woodland!! I enjoyed it immensely! Hearing you sing of Logan reminded me of the evening you both generously entertained me. Judging from your comments, it sounds like the bison hides will be more of a chore than the deer hides. I look forward to hearing about the effort. Best Regards my friends!
Hey Robert, You are welcome at our fire any time. As to the work involved with the bison hides, to compare them to deer hides is an understatement, lol. Thank you (I think) for sourcing them for me.
What a great song and story .. you are truly blessed to relate to that era of time .. my wife is 5/8s Cherokee and all my children and grandchildren are card holders as members of the tribe .. I myself am just a fair skinned,Scotch Irishman from the Allegheny Mtns of the Appalachia’s in Virginia.. history holds a place deep in my heart .. from the Foothills of the Ozarks in NE Oklahoma comes a big vote for more History by the Hearth .. Onward and Upward is the Watchword..
We appreciate your interest Jeff. There will indeed be more history fro the hearth coming out this winter. I might just hibernate in our little cabin, lol.
Thank you for your channel, the openings and closings of your videos are akin to a relaxation pill. I so enjoy what you offer. I’m more nineteenth century oriented than eighteenth but love everything you put out. Glad to hear of your success at procuring meat provisions and will think on you as I go afield with my New Englander percussion tomorrow to attempt to add another deer to our larder.
That was moving. You are a man of many surprising talents, Mon CaraI! I liked your rendering so much I had to buy Peter Kosky's, album MP3 off of Amazon. It is powerful music. Thank you for sharing this.
Good job Peter, a sad bit of history fore-sure, but sang very well, what a shame to lose your knife, irreplaceable I suspect, but then Nick comes though with a fine recreation replacement, what a guy and a great friend to have
Peter and Kathy I wish you both a very merry holiday season and to thank you for help easing my pain it's a struggle but I have the will to survive and must stay strong Peter your history knowledge and what I call lectures are so amazing they really paying a picture in my mind I appreciate your knowledge and your love of the beginning of our time in the days before today love you both always Freddie ❤️😀😎💪💪💪💪👍🛶🇨🇦🌹😎
It is indeed a very peaceful place … sitting by the hearth with the fire going and a storm raging outside is kinda out of body. Appreciate your kind words John.
Hello there Peter,good to see ya,good to see ya. Well,us viewers can add singing to the list of things you do very well, great song and performed very very well. I enjoyed this wee bit of history,especially the song. Awaiting the next video anxiously.
What a treat, and beautifully done. You have a great passion for your teachings, and to sing like that for the world to see and hear is a feat I could never do. Well done, sir. I find myself always intrigued by your accomplishments, projects, and stories. Love what u do and teach. I wish we were neighbors so I could visit and learn that would be so fulfilling. Wishing you all the best and a wonderful Christmas. God bless.
Peter, thank you and keep up the wonderful, wonderful work you do. I always look forward to watching your videos and it helps me a lot in my understanding and as being a member of the sins of American revolution. Again thank you.
Howdy Peter Ho ha there is all kinds of good and bad in our history ..... Do not remember the guy you were singing about ... but I was very young then LOL.... I like your singing folk songs ... That knife looks so good and handy , wish you had a close up .... I have loss a knife while hunting , like losing a friend . Congrads on your hunt .... I bet you are going to make one anyway ....
Appreciate your efforts and dedication! Looking forward to the buffalo tanning. Always glad you share all aspects of history from a respectful position. Many do not understand the complexity of tribal relationships and customs. Hopefully speaking about Logan has given some a glimpse into intertribal relations and how destructive our actions today may effect others even if it's indirect and as collateral damage. Thanks again and keep your powder dry!
Trail to the Homestead - Happy Trail. I love that path to your Cabin. Like walking through the Twilight Zone... and then the cabin comes into view, so exciting going back to the 1700s, and also the Blacksmith Shop really adds to the thrill... Also, I loved that you showed the cabin at twilight light ... I would love to see a video of you having supper or something at night and show the cabin from outside.... Also I love the pond in front of the cabin and the surrounding woodland... such an escape!... WOW!
Very much enjoyed the song and the story. From what I have read there was reasoning behind the butcher of Logans family. As long as there was peace there was no excuse for the taking ofland. But for the greed of speculators, among them the royal governor who sought an excuse for a war, there would probably have been continued peace. As usual the innocents on both sides paid for the greed of a few. Good job, Peter. Thank you.
@@TheWoodlandEscape your videos mean a lot to me, Peter. I look forward to every one of them. Yes, the greed and the lengths men will go is hard to fathom. But it's nothing new and is still going on today in many places all over the world. It seems hard to build brotherhood and tolerance. Much easier to create dissension and feed the prejudice that is already there. It is easier to kill or subjugate or steal from people whom we think lesser than ourselves and therefore unworthy. All they have to do is be a little different, whether that be race, religion, or even have a little different perspective. But the main reason is that they have something we want. Ignorance and callousness will take over from there.
Turbulent times indeed. Well done singing. The caliber of a man’s friends are a reflection of the man. You no doubt have some great friends. I’m sure your friend Nick made your day. Glad to see that as you clearly cherished that knife. Thanks for sharing!
Not certain about my caliber but, l am a lucky man indeed to have a handful of really great friends. This knife just feels right in the hand and is most certainly a cherished tool.
I’ve just revisited this episode and what a sad , sad story of Logan ..I know we cannot gloss over the past but we also can never forget it and with the help of wonderful historians like you , with your haunting and beautiful singing and playing we never will . Thank you Peter and Cathy for such a heartwarming and interesting channel , my absolute favourite on all of TH-cam!! Good fortune and happiness to you both !
I came back to listen to you play tha song again. Your voice and the tune are so beautiful, and the words bring me to tears. Thank you so much for sharing.
Thanks Robert. As to the pain and suffering, in my world and in my lifetime, it remains unimaginable. However, one needs only look to to the current state of affairs on this planet to plainly see, it is not over.
@@TheWoodlandEscape I'm guessing that many many people are suffering in one form or another. I too am suffering greatly. I'm so sorry that you're suffering. You have a brother-in-arms in the US, Albuquerque New Mexico. And you are correct, the current state of affairs on this planet is in massive horrible problem, as wellas in a mess, causing such an upheaval. I will often listen, to the song you sing. I love it!
I have fleshed and de-haired some cow hides for plains indian rawhide bags and its a lot work but very self gratifying when all finished. Very sad song but you did it justice.
Hi Peter, Wonderful upload. I had a great-grandfather killed at Point Pleasant WV. He had the honorable distinction of being the first and only man killed from his unit. He was hunting deer for his unit when he was ambushed and killed by the Swanee. His name was William Mitchell Clay. See ya on the next !
@@TheWoodlandEscape He is listed on the muster rolls of the battle. Have a lot of Revolutionary war veterans in my tree close to 15 all verified. I belong to the Sons of the American Revolution. A few I found muster rolls for the F&I war. The battle of Fort Necessity interesting thing had a grandfather Jesse Chatfield involved in that conflict was wounded and got a pay voucher where he was paid by my distant cousin George Washington (share the same many times over great grandmother).🙂
Hey Peter! Friends like Nick are beyond price! Given the size of the knife... it is a small wonder that you used it everyday. (I'm sure that you will find the replacement just as handy as your original!) Chief Logan's Letter is a prime example of the eloquence of the First People. After all this time, it still has the power to move and inspire those who come across it.
I find the size of patch knives perfect for most jobs and Nicks blades are especially nice. There are numerous written speeches of natives from that era that are absolutely amazing.
@@TheWoodlandEscape Did you make the sheath yourself? In my opinion, it looked as good as the knife! The agitation about fulfilling a Treaty Obligation, and appointing a Cherokee Delegate to the U.S. House Of Representatives, becomes a lot easier to understand why there is such resistance to the notion. If the Cherokee Congressman (Congresswoman) speaks.... it will make the rest of them look and sound like ill-spoken, small vocabulary limited, bumpkins that are verbally challenged to communicate in a clear and logical manner. Americans have long forgiven the burning of Washington, D.C., back in the day.... but letting Congress get out of town at the time... is a steeper hill.
Hi, I grew up on Yellow Creek, by a little town called Bergholz, Ohio. When I read about this massacre it made me sick that someone could do that' I fished and hunted by the creek and my grandfather had a coal mine there. Our family use to compete at muzzle shoots. My daughter, at 14 could throw a tomahawk as good as any man! But that was a long time ago she's in her 40s with 3 kids that love to shoot and fish! I'm glad you got your winters meat. We love your channel. Take care, Jim
I love listening to all the history. And I love that period music as well. It would be great if you did a video that was just music. I'm sure we don't love to hear it, especially the opening theme. That really strikes a cord with me.
Peter, I sometimes miss your video so am catching up, beautiful song and beautifully done! Am so pleased to see and hear you doing more music these days! Must have been several requests from your viewers! Excellent video (as always) along with Kathy's (Cathy's) great work on the camera! During the opening I get the impression that you live rather far back in the woods! Beautiful! Hope that you and your entire family have a wonderful and beautiful white Christmas. Stay safe and warm. Millie in Mississippi
G'Day, Thanks for passing on this piece of American history and the music. Music is an important part of any country or culture. My wife and I often played music at reenactments or living history---anything from medieval through to 18th century and American Civil War. My wife, the more talented half of our duo, plays guitar, banjo, lute, zither and just about anything that has strings! I play bodhran, either Celtic style or lap frame drum style. Also have other styles of hand drums and percussion items as well as a shamanic "buffalo" drum. The skin is artificial but the sound is creates is magnificent. We still do music with friends although not as often over the last three years of on/off Covid restrictions. Hoping that the lunacy ends!. I look forward to watching more of your videos and learning from them. Cheers, Steve PS My name is Steve---Uncle Arthur is a favourite of mine Australian comedy character!
My wife and I would also love to share some music while sitting around a camp fire with you folk. Maybe sometime in the future? Kind Regards, Steve and Lynda
I figured correctly Peter! We are about the same age and have many things in common, Kathy too. I wondered for a while, I wonder if Peter plays guitar and a Taylor no less, which I have as well. A great song done well and I Thank You! I want to tell you a true story my Mentor experienced. John Groff was born 1889 and died 1981. He was a cabinetmaker, blacksmith, shoemaker and rug weaver. After high school his family wanted him to get an office job but John was a craftsman. So he took a train to Chicago that took 3 days and 2 nights. For 10 years he had a number of job in car factories and made the largest red wool rug by hand that was 12’x80’ and all by hand including making two 11/2’ extensions for his bosses loom. During this time period he was staying at a boarding house in Michigan. An old woman ran the boarding house while her sons ran the farm. She and her husband homesteaded years before and he’d passed years before. While sitting on the high porch after dinner, smoking cigars and talking with everyone the woman’s son said he and his brother where going to cut down that old dead oak tree for cook stove wood. The old Mother said, as long as I’m alive that tree stands. Her son said but it’s dead and we can use the wood. She said, when your father and I started this farm it was late in the season and we harvested little from our garden. We had little meat, not much food. It turned out to be the worst winter ever and we feared we’d starve to death. One morning we woke up and were surprised to see two Buffalo hanging on that very tree that our Indian neighbors have hung there for us. It saved our lives. So yes, that old oak tree stands as long as I do. Those savage Indians, eh? This came to me through my Mentor who experienced this first hand and I Dearly Love this story. A story about an amazing culture that live with Mother Earth in humble respect. We both are very aware of this Peter. I had to tell you this story. It is one I tell often about the so called savage Stone Age Indigenous People. They certainly got the wrong end of the stick and a deadly one indeed! But I’ve learned so much Peace and Dignity from them in spite of everything. This in itself is a lesson for all. Thanks Again to You and Kathy for all your sharing as well. Your deep respect for our Mother Earth and her Children comes through respectfully well! Many Blessings with Love, Light, Peace and Joy of Being! DaveyJO in Pennsylvania
What a great story, thanks for sharing, Davey. I have nothing but respect for the indigenous peoples. Over the years I’ve learned a lot from their teachings .
Boy, what a great episode! I really enjoyed the tale of Logan and Logan"s lament. The American government has never dealt honorably with the Native American nations. I can't comment on the Canadian government, but I suspect it wasn't too far off from the US's. I'm really looking forward to what you have to say about Tecumseh. On a totally different front, I like your fancy clothes. You look good in them to my eye.
Watch all your videos , never miss a one. The song was a treat . Being period correct I couldn't hold up my Bic lighter lit during the song used a lit corn cob instead. :)
Truly a sad piece of history - white man must've been involved!!! The story was well told in song & very well sung at that. To lift the mood & Pur a smile on your faces. Months ago you asked if boomerangs actually came back. It reminds me of an Aussie joke. Q. what do you call a boomerang that doesn't come back? A. A stick!!! Keep up the good work.
Historians account that it was more often Roque Whites of a baser sort that caused trouble that would spread when native tribes would seek there revenge. Indeed 30 whites that started this whole event you shared with us. Enjoyed the intro, very nice. Will be fun to see the billows in operation. Really nice of Nick to send the knife. I have two that he made for me and I keep track of them 24 /7 they are great tools.
Well. This song hit close to home for me. Growing up I heard whispered things about the yellow creek massacre, but details were always thin. As is the Wikipedia page. Who is there to mourn? I am. I hope that there is some healing knowing that the descendants of those that carried out such a horrible act carry a deep sorrow for what happened. Thank you for this painful lesson of family history. -Paul Greathouse
Wow Paul, such heart felt words. For the record it was not Jacob Greathouse by himself and I’m sure many of us have some family history that we are not proud of. I appreciate you commenting.
I have quite a few Case knives sitting in my office chair. I like the Stockman pattern, so most of my knives are Stockmans. For fixed blades, I like my USMC Kabar that is over fifty years old, now. I am part Indian, Tuscarora. My 3rd GGM was full blooded when she married James Robinson ( Robertson) in 1775.
I loose a lot of metal things which is why I have a metal detector. The things that really cause me problems are the E clips on my Stihl chainsaws that hold the sprocket on. I have learned to get a box of assorted size E clips in MM sizes. This is better than trying to find that little sucker in the grass and leaves in my yard or on my back deck with all of its metal deck screws. However the detector has found larger metal things that I have lost in the yard. If you know where you went it should be able to find a fixed blade knife, pretty easily. I know it could find my Case fixed blade or my Kabar.😊
I grew up playing at Fort St. Clair. I wish I had known more about the history of the Ohio Country back then. But that period was very generic and sanitized in school. I learned more reading Eckert many years later than I did in school.
Although Eckert is a novelist, his books are very accurate historically. I do believe we have improved how history is thought today, because it was pretty awful back then. Thanks for watching.
@@TheWoodlandEscape Man has not changed only his weapons of War have become more sophisticated. One might say we are out smarted by our own technology.
Congratulations! Three Whitetail in the meat locker is a good blessing. I'm looking forward to your presentation on the tanning process. We here in Colorado just remembered the Sand Creek Massacre (29 November 1864). It was a horrific slaughter. Colonel John Chivington was directed terriorial Governor, John Evans, to "subdue" the combined Arapahoe and Cheyenne camped on Sand Creek in S. E. Colorado. Chivington attacked and destroyed a village of Cheyenne and Arapaho people in southeastern Colorado Territory, killing and mutilating an estimated 69 to over 600 Native American people. Chivington claimed 500 to 600 warriors were killed. However, most sources estimate around 150 people were killed, about two-thirds of whom were women and children.
That too was a horrific tragedy , perhaps I should do a wee bit of history by the hearth on that event. As to the deer hunting, we were wrung with horseshoes this year.
The story of Chief Logan's life is interesting, so is his father's Chief Shikellamy. I live in Central Pennsylvania near the site of where the Indian village called Shikellamy Town once stood along the Susquehanna River. One of our school districts is named after Chief Shikellamy, they are called the Shikellamy Braves. Last year I went to a seminar given by a professor who studied Chief Shikellamy for thirty years, right off the back he said something that made us give him a deer in the headlights look. The professor said Chief Shikellamy wasn't of Indian blood, he was French, he was captured in Canada as a child by the Oneida Indians. Pretty impressive to work your way up from captive to being a chief, I guess it would be safe to say Chief Shikellamy was no dummy.
All the handles on my working tools that go in the field have orange paint or orange lanyards. Makes it easy for me to find in the garden or gut pile. Ugly as sin but functional.
The area I hunting in is a vast tract of forest and I did think of a metal detector but, it just made a needle in a haystack slightly more likely. Nick is indeed very generous in his gift.
Quebec has huge man made reservoirs, how did those change Quebec and the native American tribes. We're they relocated. Are those huge power plants still in operation.
They are and much of territorial land was lost in the process. The hydraulic generations plant still run to this day. A lot of the power generated is sold to the US.
WHAT a 'kind and generous' friend U have in; Nick Skinner! I am sure by his gesture, several will engage his talents. With a name like; 'Skinner', too bad he doesn't live closer, sounds like the perfect one 2 help with those hides! LOL! You're the only man I know Peter, who can say; 'I'll tan your hide." with a smile. Yes, indeed, 'the white man' has MANY reasons to hang his head. The 'decisions' of a few key people in history,, results in the shaming of a nation. I wonder if you can call it 'revenge' when a man has been hurt beyond reason. Thank-you most kindly 4 this most interesting vid. Health and God Bless! P.S. I enjoy your playing Peter, but can U play us a 'happy one' sometime? :)
Not sure on the smile, well at least not as a child when I’d hear mom say “I’ll tan your hide”. Usually didn’t end well for me, lol. Nick is indeed a fine craftsman and friend. I personally struggle with the idea of revenge but, as you point out “ hurt beyond reason”, perhaps there are times when it is indeed justifiable.
@@TheWoodlandEscape AHh then, we'll have 2 wait 4 a writer 2 send a 'jovial' one 2 U! I DO wish 2 clarify my first remarks. I have no qualms about 'revenge'. Revenge is the Good Lord's. However, if a man 'robs a bank' and was driven by 'others', given a weapon 'by others' and threatened to perform 'by others'. The 'others' are culpable of the crime, and the 'doer' needs aid(s) to heal. Chief Login was driven to the point of insanity and so acted out. Justified? Never. But many were to blame for his 'reactions'. We await your next adventure. P.S. Well Done Catherine, on the shoot.
Well done. Another addition to Peters fireside greatest hits collection :) The history lesson as always was interesting. At least the men who murdered Chief Logans family did not last long afterwards. We don't learn this on our schools.
Sadly there is a lot of history that is either not taught is misconstrued by the victors.
You were wrong to think you didn't sing that song beautifuly, it brought tears to my eyes. Not only the beacause of the story, but also how you sang it. Hope to see you bring us more songs in the future. 😀

Your plan for the days sounds like an outstanding one. A good book and a fir3, what more could you need?

Thank you for your channel, the openings and closings of your videos are akin to a relaxation pill. I so enjoy what you offer. I’m more nineteenth century oriented than eighteenth but love everything you put out. Glad to hear of your success at procuring meat provisions and will think on you as I go afield with my New Englander percussion tomorrow to attempt to add another deer to our larder.
Thanks Steve and best of luck on your hunt. I find even when I don’t see a deer it is far better in the forest than under a roof.
That was moving. You are a man of many surprising talents, Mon CaraI! I liked your rendering so much I had to buy Peter Kosky's, album MP3 off of Amazon. It is powerful music. Thank you for sharing this.
I’m with you, Peter’s music is powerful and moving and the best part, so historically accurate.
Good job Peter, a sad bit of history fore-sure, but sang very well, what a shame to lose your knife, irreplaceable I suspect, but then Nick comes though with a fine recreation replacement, what a guy and a great friend to have
Thanks Elwood and Nick is indeed a fine craftsman and friend.
Ballads by the fire.. thoroughly enjoyed it. You should be recording these. I'd be the first in line to buy a copy.
You are too kind sir. I thank you for the compliment.
Peter and Kathy I wish you both a very merry holiday season and to thank you for help easing my pain it's a struggle but I have the will to survive and must stay strong Peter your history knowledge and what I call lectures are so amazing they really paying a picture in my mind I appreciate your knowledge and your love of the beginning of our time in the days before today love you both always Freddie ❤️😀😎💪💪💪💪👍🛶🇨🇦🌹😎
Thanks Freddie, I’m all for easing ones pain and flattered that you think so much about our endeavors.
Thank you my friend, with much pleasure I watch and listen to your stories and songs. God bless you. (Old guy from Arkansas)🇺🇸
If our endeavor brings pleasure to people than it is all worth the effort.
Another beautiful video my old friend.a beautiful place you have created.
It is indeed a very peaceful place … sitting by the hearth with the fire going and a storm raging outside is kinda out of body. Appreciate your kind words John.
Peter,
Thank you for the lesson and the music! Well done. Happy to hear your deer hunt went well. Cheers!
Thank you and we certainly had the luck in this seasons hunt.
My, my. What a wonderful singing voice as well as guitar playing. You are a man of many talents. Thank you for sharing with us. Keep up the good work.
Very much appreciated Cheryl.
Hello from New Zealand.
Your channel is just wonderful.
I learn something new from you every episode.
Thank you .
Glad you’re enjoying. They say if we’re not learning we’re dead!
Hello there Peter,good to see ya,good to see ya. Well,us viewers can add singing to the list of things you do very well, great song and performed very very well. I enjoyed this wee bit of history,especially the song. Awaiting the next video anxiously.
Always kind words from my friend Phil … thank you.
Thanks for sharing and taking us along on the journey blessings to all
Our pleasure, Kim. Glad you’re en.
Stellar!!! Great song, great story. Some of my favorite videos to watch
Sincerely appreciate that Gene.
What a treat, and beautifully done. You have a great passion for your teachings, and to sing like that for the world to see and hear is a feat I could never do. Well done, sir. I find myself always intrigued by your accomplishments, projects, and stories. Love what u do and teach. I wish we were neighbors so I could visit and learn that would be so fulfilling. Wishing you all the best and a wonderful Christmas. God bless.
Well sir if you ever find yourself in Eastern Ontario, our door is always open. Thanks for following our channel.
Peter, thank you and keep up the wonderful, wonderful work you do. I always look forward to watching your videos and it helps me a lot in my understanding and as being a member of the sins of American revolution. Again thank you.
I’m flattered that you find our work so meaningful, Ryan.
Well sung! Dear Mr. Kelly you r singing and storytelling sounds something similar to my old friend's Iain MacKintosh from Scotland. Thanks very much!
I appreciate that sir, glad you enjoyed.
Your episodes just keep getting better every time.
That’s encouraging, thank you.
What a sad song but so beautifully done! Thank you Mr. Kelly!
Thanks, Millie.
Howdy Peter
Ho ha there is all kinds of good and bad in our history ..... Do not remember the guy you were singing about ... but I was very young then LOL....
I like your singing folk songs ...
That knife looks so good and handy , wish you had a close up .... I have loss a knife while hunting , like losing a friend . Congrads on your hunt ....
I bet you are going to make one anyway ....
I hope to be making more than one if I live long enough. I was also pretty darn young when the Yellow Creek Massacre happened.
Appreciate your efforts and dedication! Looking forward to the buffalo tanning. Always glad you share all aspects of history from a respectful position. Many do not understand the complexity of tribal relationships and customs. Hopefully speaking about Logan has given some a glimpse into intertribal relations and how destructive our actions today may effect others even if it's indirect and as collateral damage. Thanks again and keep your powder dry!
Profound words my friend. Bison tanning is just around the corner. Watch yer top knot.
Trail to the Homestead - Happy Trail. I love that path to your Cabin. Like walking through the Twilight Zone... and then the cabin comes into view, so exciting going back to the 1700s, and also the Blacksmith Shop really adds to the thrill... Also, I loved that you showed the cabin at twilight light ... I would love to see a video of you having supper or something at night and show the cabin from outside.... Also I love the pond in front of the cabin and the surrounding woodland... such an escape!... WOW!
Thanks Everett, we do find it a rather magical place. Good idea on a future episode.
Very much enjoyed the song and the story. From what I have read there was reasoning behind the butcher of Logans family. As long as there was peace there was no excuse for the taking ofland. But for the greed of speculators, among them the royal governor who sought an excuse for a war, there would probably have been continued peace. As usual the innocents on both sides paid for the greed of a few. Good job, Peter. Thank you.
Your suggestion certain makes a lot of sense, Larry. Hard to fathom the greed that would push a handful of rich men to such depths.
@@TheWoodlandEscape your videos mean a lot to me, Peter. I look forward to every one of them. Yes, the greed and the lengths men will go is hard to fathom. But it's nothing new and is still going on today in many places all over the world. It seems hard to build brotherhood and tolerance. Much easier to create dissension and feed the prejudice that is already there. It is easier to kill or subjugate or steal from people whom we think lesser than ourselves and therefore unworthy. All they have to do is be a little different, whether that be race, religion, or even have a little different perspective. But the main reason is that they have something we want. Ignorance and callousness will take over from there.
You are spot on, Larry. As to the greedy, it will ultimately lead to anarchy, history has shown that very clearly to us.
Excellent video as usual Peter. You need to make a cd of peroid music. I want the first one!
Appreciate that Jack. I did make a CD once and still have boxes of them, lol. Oh well, it was a lot of fun making it.
Turbulent times indeed. Well done singing. The caliber of a man’s friends are a reflection of the man. You no doubt have some great friends. I’m sure your friend Nick made your day. Glad to see that as you clearly cherished that knife. Thanks for sharing!
Not certain about my caliber but, l am a lucky man indeed to have a handful of really great friends. This knife just feels right in the hand and is most certainly a cherished tool.
I’ve just revisited this episode and what a sad , sad story of Logan ..I know we cannot gloss over the past but we also can never forget it and with the help of wonderful historians like you , with your haunting and beautiful singing and playing we never will . Thank you Peter and Cathy for such a heartwarming and interesting channel , my absolute favourite on all of TH-cam!! Good fortune and happiness to you both !
Thank you, Chazie. Your word’s are not only flattering but, certainly give us encouragement to continue producing historical content.
I came back to listen to you play tha song again. Your voice and the tune are so beautiful, and the words bring me to tears. Thank you so much for sharing.
I am truly flattered, Ivy, thanks so much.
Such a great American history story! I truly loved the song that you sang, it was moving! The pain and suffering............
Thanks Robert. As to the pain and suffering, in my world and in my lifetime, it remains unimaginable. However, one needs only look to to the current state of affairs on this planet to plainly see, it is not over.
@@TheWoodlandEscape I'm guessing that many many people are suffering in one form or another. I too am suffering greatly. I'm so sorry that you're suffering. You have a brother-in-arms in the US, Albuquerque New Mexico. And you are correct, the current state of affairs on this planet is in massive horrible problem, as wellas in a mess, causing such an upheaval. I will often listen, to the song you sing. I love it!
I have fleshed and de-haired some cow hides for plains indian rawhide bags and its a lot work but very self gratifying when all finished. Very sad song but you did it justice.
Hide work is never easy but, as you point out, well worth the effort.
Hi Peter, Wonderful upload. I had a great-grandfather killed at Point Pleasant WV. He had the honorable distinction of being the first and only man killed from his unit. He was hunting deer for his unit when he was ambushed and killed by the Swanee. His name was William Mitchell Clay. See ya on the next !
Wow, most people don’t know their family history back a couple of generations. Thanks for sharing your family history, Gil.
@@TheWoodlandEscape He is listed on the muster rolls of the battle. Have a lot of Revolutionary war veterans in my tree close to 15 all verified. I belong to the Sons of the American Revolution. A few I found muster rolls for the F&I war. The battle of Fort Necessity interesting thing had a grandfather Jesse Chatfield involved in that conflict was wounded and got a pay voucher where he was paid by my distant cousin George Washington (share the same many times over great grandmother).🙂
Hey Peter! Friends like Nick are beyond price! Given the size of the knife... it is a small wonder that you used it everyday. (I'm sure that you will find the replacement just as handy as your original!) Chief Logan's Letter is a prime example of the eloquence of the First People. After all this time, it still has the power to move and inspire those who come across it.
I find the size of patch knives perfect for most jobs and Nicks blades are especially nice. There are numerous written speeches of natives from that era that are absolutely amazing.
@@TheWoodlandEscape Did you make the sheath yourself? In my opinion, it looked as good as the knife! The agitation about fulfilling a Treaty Obligation, and appointing a Cherokee Delegate to the U.S. House Of Representatives, becomes a lot easier to understand why there is such resistance to the notion. If the Cherokee Congressman (Congresswoman) speaks.... it will make the rest of them look and sound like ill-spoken, small vocabulary limited, bumpkins that are verbally challenged to communicate in a clear and logical manner. Americans have long forgiven the burning of Washington, D.C., back in the day.... but letting Congress get out of town at the time... is a steeper hill.
Nick made this sheath as well. Your second last line in your comments had me laugh out loud!
Always enjoy how you present history. You make come alive.
I appreciate those kind words and we thank you for your interest.
Hi, I grew up on Yellow Creek, by a little town called Bergholz, Ohio. When I read about this massacre it made me sick that someone could do that' I fished and hunted by the creek and my grandfather had a coal mine there. Our family use to compete at muzzle shoots. My daughter, at 14 could throw a tomahawk as good as any man! But that was a long time ago she's in her 40s with 3 kids that love to shoot and fish! I'm glad you got your winters meat. We love your channel. Take care, Jim
Well Jim you certainly live in area steeped in history. Flattered that you enjoy our historical endeavors.
I love listening to all the history. And I love that period music as well. It would be great if you did a video that was just music. I'm sure we don't love to hear it, especially the opening theme. That really strikes a cord with me.
Thanks. Like you there is certain music that does just that, strikes a cord or moves one. Glad you enjoyed.
Peter, I sometimes miss your video so am catching up, beautiful song and beautifully done! Am so pleased to see and hear you doing more music these days! Must have been several requests from your viewers! Excellent video (as always) along with Kathy's (Cathy's) great work on the camera! During the opening I get the impression that you live rather far back in the woods! Beautiful! Hope that you and your entire family have a wonderful and beautiful white Christmas. Stay safe and warm. Millie in Mississippi
And a very Merry Christmas to you and your clan Millie. Glad you enjoyed the song.
G'Day,
Thanks for passing on this piece of American history and the music. Music is an important part of any country or culture. My wife and I often played music at reenactments or living history---anything from medieval through to 18th century and American Civil War. My wife, the more talented half of our duo, plays guitar, banjo, lute, zither and just about anything that has strings! I play bodhran, either Celtic style or lap frame drum style. Also have other styles of hand drums and percussion items as well as a shamanic "buffalo" drum. The skin is artificial but the sound is creates is magnificent. We still do music with friends although not as often over the last three years of on/off Covid restrictions. Hoping that the lunacy ends!.
I look forward to watching more of your videos and learning from them.
Cheers,
Steve
PS My name is Steve---Uncle Arthur is a favourite of mine Australian comedy character!
I would love the opportunity to share a fire and some home grown music with you and your wife!
My wife and I would also love to share some music while sitting around a camp fire with you folk. Maybe sometime in the future?
Kind Regards,
Steve and Lynda
That would be awesome!
My favorite place to ride my ATV is Mingo County West Virginia home of Chief Logan State Park. Thanks for sharing the history.
You live in a beautiful State. I spent a lot of time in my youth down there rock climbing.
I figured correctly Peter! We are about the same age and have many things in common, Kathy too. I wondered for a while, I wonder if Peter plays guitar and a Taylor no less, which I have as well. A great song done well and I Thank You! I want to tell you a true story my Mentor experienced. John Groff was born 1889 and died 1981. He was a cabinetmaker, blacksmith, shoemaker and rug weaver. After high school his family wanted him to get an office job but John was a craftsman. So he took a train to Chicago that took 3 days and 2 nights. For 10 years he had a number of job in car factories and made the largest red wool rug by hand that was 12’x80’ and all by hand including making two 11/2’ extensions for his bosses loom. During this time period he was staying at a boarding house in Michigan. An old woman ran the boarding house while her sons ran the farm. She and her husband homesteaded years before and he’d passed years before. While sitting on the high porch after dinner, smoking cigars and talking with everyone the woman’s son said he and his brother where going to cut down that old dead oak tree for cook stove wood. The old Mother said, as long as I’m alive that tree stands. Her son said but it’s dead and we can use the wood. She said, when your father and I started this farm it was late in the season and we harvested little from our garden. We had little meat, not much food. It turned out to be the worst winter ever and we feared we’d starve to death. One morning we woke up and were surprised to see two Buffalo hanging on that very tree that our Indian neighbors have hung there for us. It saved our lives. So yes, that old oak tree stands as long as I do. Those savage Indians, eh? This came to me through my Mentor who experienced this first hand and I Dearly Love this story. A story about an amazing culture that live with Mother Earth in humble respect. We both are very aware of this Peter. I had to tell you this story. It is one I tell often about the so called savage Stone Age Indigenous People. They certainly got the wrong end of the stick and a deadly one indeed! But I’ve learned so much Peace and Dignity from them in spite of everything. This in itself is a lesson for all. Thanks Again to You and Kathy for all your sharing as well. Your deep respect for our Mother Earth and her Children comes through respectfully well! Many Blessings with Love, Light, Peace and Joy of Being! DaveyJO in Pennsylvania
What a great story, thanks for sharing, Davey. I have nothing but respect for the indigenous peoples. Over the years I’ve learned a lot from their teachings .
Good morning from Syracuse NY USA brother and everyone else thank you for sharing your live history videos
Our pleasure, Earl.
I had saved your video so I could watch it and enjoy it
A sad song, well written and sung.
Thank you.
Boy, what a great episode! I really enjoyed the tale of Logan and Logan"s lament. The American government has never dealt honorably with the Native American nations. I can't comment on the Canadian government, but I suspect it wasn't too far off from the US's. I'm really looking forward to what you have to say about Tecumseh. On a totally different front, I like your fancy clothes. You look good in them to my eye.
Our history with the natives in Canada is every bit as horrific as yours. Glad you liked this episode.
11:48 the fire was listening
I rewatched and yup, it was indeed.
"History by The Hearth"...... love it!
Glad you’re enjoying.
A new TWE upload, yes please 😃👌👍
Can't wait for your tanning video Peter.
Coming up net my friend.
Watch all your videos , never miss a one. The song was a treat . Being period correct I couldn't hold up my Bic lighter lit during the song used a lit corn cob instead. :)
Ah, nothing smokes like a good corn cob, thanks Jimmy.
Sad what happened to the first people, there was so much we could have learned from them. Great video and song. Keep your powder dry
Indeed, just the lost medicines alone is a huge loss let alone their amazing skills. Watch yer top knot.
Fabulous story!
And a sad one, thanks Tammy.
Been a little busy when you came on so I put your video on hold to watch later
Nicely done. Do you know if the music is available for this song? I’d like to learn it.
I don’t believe it is, I just learned it by ear from his CD.
Truly a sad piece of history - white man must've been involved!!!
The story was well told in song & very well sung at that.
To lift the mood & Pur a smile on your faces. Months ago you asked if boomerangs actually came back.
It reminds me of an Aussie joke.
Q. what do you call a boomerang that doesn't come back?
A. A stick!!!
Keep up the good work.
Thanks Stephen. Great joke, lol!
Beautiful Peter! Does your site provide oredering a disk?
We do not Millie.
Absolutely amazing 😢
Thanks so much Doug.
Historians account that it was more often Roque Whites of a baser sort that caused trouble that would spread when native tribes would seek there revenge. Indeed 30 whites that started this whole event you shared with us. Enjoyed the intro, very nice. Will be fun to see the billows in operation. Really nice of Nick to send the knife. I have two that he made for me and I keep track of them 24 /7 they are great tools.
Ah the old adage, one bad apple spoils the bushel. Thank goodness there is more good than bad in our species.
@@TheWoodlandEscape Amen
Hi Pete, sure miss your music in camp!!
My, it has been a long time since I’ve seen your name pop up. I have fond memories of my time with the 6th Ohio.
Well. This song hit close to home for me. Growing up I heard whispered things about the yellow creek massacre, but details were always thin. As is the Wikipedia page. Who is there to mourn? I am. I hope that there is some healing knowing that the descendants of those that carried out such a horrible act carry a deep sorrow for what happened. Thank you for this painful lesson of family history. -Paul Greathouse
Wow Paul, such heart felt words. For the record it was not Jacob Greathouse by himself and I’m sure many of us have some family history that we are not proud of. I appreciate you commenting.

I have quite a few Case knives sitting in my office chair. I like the
Stockman pattern, so most of my knives are Stockmans. For fixed blades, I like my USMC Kabar that is over fifty years old, now. I am part Indian, Tuscarora. My 3rd GGM was full blooded when she married James Robinson ( Robertson) in 1775.
That was beautiful! I'm still fleshing out those pig hides! The rest of the pigs are tucked up in the freezer!
Sounds like a whole lot of work but, a good feeling going into winter with a full freezer.
I loose a lot of metal things which is why I have a metal detector. The things that really cause me problems are the E clips on my Stihl chainsaws that hold the sprocket on. I have learned to get a box of assorted size E clips in MM sizes. This is better than trying to find that little sucker in the grass and leaves in my yard or on my back deck with all of its metal deck screws. However the detector has found larger metal things that I have lost in the yard. If you know where you went it should be able to find a fixed blade knife, pretty easily. I know it could find my Case fixed blade or my Kabar.😊
wonderful!
Thanks, Peggy.
I have family that are from Logan, Hocking Co. Ohio. Though the town was founded by Thomas Worthington, it was named in honor of Chief Logan.
You are the new Stommpin Tom. Peter Thanks for more tails from the wilderness.
Thanks Dave but, if I’m to do the title you’ve given my I’ll need to change from moccasins to cowboy boots!
I grew up playing at Fort St. Clair. I wish I had known more about the history of the Ohio Country back then. But that period was very generic and sanitized in school. I learned more reading Eckert many years later than I did in school.
Although Eckert is a novelist, his books are very accurate historically. I do believe we have improved how history is thought today, because it was pretty awful back then. Thanks for watching.
Please film more work being done
I didn't know you could sing bravo sir
I thank you … some might argue that I can’t, lol.
Well done,Peter. So many sad stories of those Indian and white men times!
On both sides
Indeed and they continue into our own times.
@@TheWoodlandEscape Man has not changed only his weapons of War have become more sophisticated. One might say we are out smarted by our own technology.
Congratulations! Three Whitetail in the meat locker is a good blessing. I'm looking forward to your presentation on the tanning process.
We here in Colorado just remembered the Sand Creek Massacre (29 November 1864). It was a horrific slaughter. Colonel John Chivington was directed terriorial Governor, John Evans, to "subdue" the combined Arapahoe and Cheyenne camped on Sand Creek in S. E. Colorado. Chivington attacked and destroyed a village of Cheyenne and Arapaho people in southeastern Colorado Territory, killing and mutilating an estimated 69 to over 600 Native American people. Chivington claimed 500 to 600 warriors were killed. However, most sources estimate around 150 people were killed, about two-thirds of whom were women and children.
That too was a horrific tragedy , perhaps I should do a wee bit of history by the hearth on that event. As to the deer hunting, we were wrung with horseshoes this year.
The story of Chief Logan's life is interesting, so is his father's Chief Shikellamy. I live in Central Pennsylvania near the site of where the Indian village called Shikellamy Town once stood along the Susquehanna River. One of our school districts is named after Chief Shikellamy, they are called the Shikellamy Braves. Last year I went to a seminar given by a professor who studied Chief Shikellamy for thirty years, right off the back he said something that made us give him a deer in the headlights look. The professor said Chief Shikellamy wasn't of Indian blood, he was French, he was captured in Canada as a child by the Oneida Indians. Pretty impressive to work your way up from captive to being a chief, I guess it would be safe to say Chief Shikellamy was no dummy.
Now that, William, I did not know. Another white man that rose to War Chief status was Blue Jacket of the Shawnee.
All the handles on my working tools that go in the field have orange paint or orange lanyards. Makes it easy for me to find in the garden or gut pile. Ugly as sin but functional.
That’s a great idea. Never thought to look in the gut pile, lol. Wait a minute, I used a different knife as the other was lost.
Just when I was going to comment about metal detecting to try and find the knife , then all of a sudden there’s one in his hand 😅
The area I hunting in is a vast tract of forest and I did think of a metal detector but, it just made a needle in a haystack slightly more likely. Nick is indeed very generous in his gift.
I m from pakistan, i watch your video,like v much. God bless you live long life sir.
Thank you so much.
Thanks a lot. Sir i m dental surgeon
Be careful with your guitar finish with that heat. Great story.
You got that right. I have an old beater that I usually take to campfires etc. but, it is in for some neck work. Thanks for the compliment.
Quebec has huge man made reservoirs, how did those change Quebec and the native American tribes. We're they relocated. Are those huge power plants still in operation.
They are and much of territorial land was lost in the process. The hydraulic generations plant still run to this day. A lot of the power generated is sold to the US.
WHAT a 'kind and generous' friend U have in; Nick Skinner! I am sure by his gesture, several will engage his talents. With a name like; 'Skinner', too bad he doesn't live closer, sounds like the perfect one 2 help with those hides! LOL! You're the only man I know Peter, who can say; 'I'll tan your hide." with a smile. Yes, indeed, 'the white man' has MANY reasons to hang his head. The 'decisions' of a few key people in history,, results in the shaming of a nation. I wonder if you can call it 'revenge' when a man has been hurt beyond reason. Thank-you most kindly 4 this most interesting vid. Health and God Bless! P.S. I enjoy your playing Peter, but can U play us a 'happy one' sometime? :)
Not sure on the smile, well at least not as a child when I’d hear mom say “I’ll tan your hide”. Usually didn’t end well for me, lol. Nick is indeed a fine craftsman and friend. I personally struggle with the idea of revenge but, as you point out “ hurt beyond reason”, perhaps there are times when it is indeed justifiable.
I’ll definitely work on that happy song for you Marie. Sadly my entire repertoire is sad.
@@TheWoodlandEscape AHh then, we'll have 2 wait 4 a writer 2 send a 'jovial' one 2 U! I DO wish 2 clarify my first remarks. I have no qualms about 'revenge'. Revenge is the Good Lord's. However, if a man 'robs a bank' and was driven by 'others', given a weapon 'by others' and threatened to perform 'by others'. The 'others' are culpable of the crime, and the 'doer' needs aid(s) to heal. Chief Login was driven to the point of insanity and so acted out. Justified? Never. But many were to blame for his 'reactions'. We await your next adventure. P.S. Well Done Catherine, on the shoot.
Good job I think.
Where have you been? I keep looking for you and I've finally found you again! Please, don't do that again!
Not sure what your referring to, Millie. We produce one video a week.
