Venango Path : ウィキペディア英語版 | Venango Path Venango Path was a Native American trail that ran from the Forks of the Ohio (present day Pittsburgh) to Presque Isle, Pennsylvania, United States of America.〔The French and Indian War in Pennsylvania 1753-1763, pp. 5.〕 The trail was named after the Native American village of Venango where French Creek empties into the Allegheny River. The village is now the site of the small city of Franklin, Pennsylvania. == Washington's mission to Fort Le Boeuf == George Washington and Christopher Gist travelled along the trail in December of 1753 to deliver a message to the French near Venango village. Due to inclement weather, Washington and Gist left the trail at the Forks of the Ohio, and found shelter in the Indian village of Logstown (near present-day Ambridge, Pennsylvania).〔The French and Indian War in Pennsylvania 1753-1763, pp. 6.〕 Washington and his men left the village a few days later and proceeded northeast through what is now Cranberry to Murdering Town along the Connoquenessing Creek.〔Journals of Washington and Gist, pp. 50.〕 On their return from Fort Le Boeuf, Washington and Gist left the Venango Path at Murdering Town which was located at or near present-day Evans City, and Harmony, Pennsylvania on what Gist called the "southeast fork of Beaver creek"〔Journals of Washington and Gist, pp. 35.〕 (present-day Connoquenessing Creek).〔Journals of Washington and Gist, pp. 53.〕 A Native at the village agreed to guide them down a different trail to the Forks. After marching several miles to the northeast of the original path, the Native turned on Washington and Gist, and fired a shot from his gun.〔Journals of Washington and Gist, pp. 36.〕〔Michael and Jana Novak, pp. 50.〕 The men escaped harm, but Gist wanted the captured Native executed.〔〔Michael and Jana Novak, pp. 50-51.〕 However, Washington ordered his attempted assassin released.〔〔Michael and Jana Novak, pp. 51.〕 After the attempted assassination, the two men traveled "across country" through the forest with the use of a compass to "the head of Piney creek."〔 From there, they travelled down-stream to the Allegheny River. After spending the night on a small island (Herr's Island, renamed to Washington's Landing), they moved a short distance down the river, just above the Native village of Shannopin's Town.〔Journals of Washington and Gist, pp. 37.〕 From there, they continued their trek back to Williamsburg, Virginia which they arrived at on January 16, 1754.
