- The Battle of Bloody Run was fought during Pontiac's War on July 31, 1763, on what now is the site of Elmwood Cemetery in the Eastside Historic Cemetery District of Detroit, Michigan. In an attempt to break Pontiac's siege of Fort Detroit, about 250 British troops attempted to make a surprise attack on Pontiac's encampment. Pontiac was ready and waiting, possibly alerted by French settlers, and defeated the British at Parent's Creek 2 miles (3.2 km) east of the fort. However, he did not accomplish the destruction of this British force which would have greatly demoralized the British and dissuaded more British efforts to break the Indian siege of Fort Detroit. The creek, or run, was said to have run red with the blood of the 20 dead and 41 wounded British forces and was henceforth known as Bloody Run. The British forces retreated with all their wounded and all but seven of those killed. The attack's commander, Captain James Dalyell, was one of those killed. After learning of Dalyell's death, General Jeffery Amherst offered a £200 bounty to anyone who would kill Pontiac. The famous frontiersman Robert Rogers was one of the British commanders in this battle. (en)
- La bataille de Bloody Run eut lieu le 31 juillet 1763, pendant la rébellion de Pontiac. Afin de briser le siège de Fort Détroit initié par Pontiac, environ 250 soldats britanniques ont tenté de mener une attaque surprise sur le campement de Pontiac. Pontiac était prêt et attendait, probablement alerté par des colons français, et a défait les Britanniques à Parent's Creek, 3 km à l'est du fort. Cependant, il n'est pas parvenu à anéantir la totalité de cette force britannique, ce qui aurait considérablement démoralisé les Britanniques et dissuadé d'autres tentatives britanniques pour rompre le siège amérindien de Fort Détroit. Le ruisseau serait devenu rouge avec le sang des 20 morts et des 34 soldats britanniques blessés et fut désormais connu sous le nom de Bloody Run. Le commandant de l'attaque, le capitaine James Dalyell, fait partie des tués. Après avoir appris la mort de Dalyell, le général Jeffery Amherst offrit une prime de 200 £ à quiconque pourrait tuer Pontiac. (fr)
