  Ambush at Twelve Mile Swamp

  Acrylic by Virginia Trahan (24in. by 18in.)

  "At Twelve-Mile Swamp, named for its distance from St. Augustine, September 11 1812, a column of Marines and Georgia militiamen escorted a pair of supply wagons to Davis Creek, intent on annexing the Spanish province of Florida. Suddenly, the trail erupted with a blaze of musket fire as a large band of Seminole Indians and runaway slaves fired a pointblank volley into the column. The ambush in Twelve-Mile Swamp brought an end to an ill-conceived American scheme to annex Spanish East Florida by force."
