MEMOIR OF JOHN MULLETT.9A little fracas occurred near a creek, in which two Indians were so badly pounded that they died shortly after, and the surveying party left the woods. That stream has been called Battle Creek ever since.
From 1831 to 1834 Mr. Mullett was engaged in surveying in Wisconsin. He surveyed all south of Fox and Wisconsin rivers, and was driven out by the Indians during the Black Hawk war. He was employed by General Scott to go east and purchase wagons for the transportation of troops.
