I have one reaction reported from Washington concerning the rebellion and it was after it was crushed. "Good God" is what is reported from Washington. He felt that only a Tory or Briton could have predicted such disorders. Since he wasn't president until 1789 that is the only thing I have that shows how he felt. Jefferson, on the other hand, wrote to Adams "This commotion will terminate in additonal strength to the government." He was right. It was one of the events that will push Congress towards a constitutional convention.

Did Indians use bows and arrows in the French and Indian War?
Yes. But not common. Even though they could fire up to nine times faster than a flintlock, the bows required great strength skill and training to operate. The musket was a very easy weapon to use. Another thing is when natives where in the bradock expadition they were sharpshooters. while muskets are less accurate and more noisy, you might be able to see the marksman because of the direction the bow came from. and when a bow is fired from a long rage, you might be able to dodge a bow. The majoraty of the natives chose the non skillfull musket. But some, going for rate of fire, honner, and strength went with the bow. Archery required alot of practice. The BEST archers in the native american tribes could hit a target at 100 meters. the average musket man could hit one at 75 meters while a new one could do 50 meters and like boys the best could get 100 meters. If you were a native in the french and indain war, my advice is take the honer take the strength take the skill and take advantage that it could shoot up to nine times fater, the bow and arrow

Washington's French and Indian War service mostly occurred in the wilderness surrounding what is today Pittsburgh. It was an important strategic position at the headwaters of the Ohio River Valley. He was involved with the first fighting at the Battle of Jumonville, which was little more than a skirmish. The same was true of the Battle of Fort Necessity, soon after. He rallied the regular and militia troops after Braddock's death at the Battle of the Monongahela, preventing a rout and allowing the British to make an orderly withdrawal. He led the Virginia Volunteers in the Forbes Expedition which laid siege to Fort Dusqusne, which eventually surrendered. He asked for a commission as a regular officer in the British Army, but was denied, because he was an American Colonial, planting the seed of resentment that would bloom at the start of the American Revolution.
