Four miles to the north, at Bushy Run, an army under Col. Henry Bouquet defeated the Indians Aug. 5-6, 1763. This raised the siege of Fort Pitt and opened the gateway for settlement of the West. It is now a State Park.

Marker is at the intersection of Lincoln Highway (U.S. 30) and Lowry Avenue, on the right when traveling west on Lincoln Highway.
