Chief Little Turtle

Me-She-Kin-Quah, Chief of the Miami Indians, was a teacher of his people, a friend of the United States, and a leader whose endeavors toward peace should serve as an inspiration for future generations. This plot of ground is the last resting place of Chief Little Turtle and was made a public park in 1959 through the generosity of Eleanor Smeltzly and Mary Catherine Smeltzly under the auspices of the Allen County - Fort Wayne Historical Society.
