It was destroyed on 16 April of that same year by members of La Salle's expedition, who were fearful of being attacked by the Iroquois as the Beaver Wars extended into the area.[3] Reestablishing a more lasting presence, Fort St Louis du Pimiteoui was established nearby in 1691, a center of trade during the colonial period. Henri de Tonti was a primary founder of both the Crevecouer and Pimiteoui posts. FoundingOn January 15, 1680, French explorers René-Robert Cavelier, Sieur de La Salle, and Henri de Tonti began construction of Fort Crèvecoeur.[3] in which Mass was celebrated and the Gospel preached by the Récollets, Gabriel Ribourde, Zenobius Membre and Louis Hennepin.[4] They finished the fort in early March, naming it "Fort Broken Heart" because of the tribulations, including desertions, that they suffered during its construction. La Salle also started building a 40-ton barque to replace Le Griffon, which had disappeared several months before.[5] On March 1, 1680, La Salle set off on foot for Fort Frontenac for supplies (including rigging for the ship),[2] leaving Henri de Tonti to hold Fort Crèvecoeur in Illinois.[6] Destruction{{further|Beaver Wars}}While on his return trip up the Illinois River, La Salle concluded that Starved Rock might provide an ideal location for another fortification and sent word downriver to Tonti regarding this idea. Following La Salle’s instructions, Henri de Tonti had left Fort Crèvecoeur on April 15, 1680 with Father Ribourde and two other men, to begin fortifying the settlement and Fort St. Louis at Starved Rock.[3] The next day, the remaining seven men, led by Martin Chartier,[7] pillaged Fort Crèvecoeur of all provisions and ammunition, destroyed the fort and headed back to Canada.[3] In August, La Salle recaptured some of the mutineers, however Chartier took refuge with a band of Shawnee Indians and went with them to Pennsylvania.[8] The mutiny was probably caused by the men's fear of being killed by Iroquois raiding parties, who were devastating the local Illinois communities at the height of the Beaver Wars. The men were demanding that La Salle return with them to Canada, which he was unwilling to do.[5] In addition, one of the mutineers who was later captured, the shipbuilder Moyse Hillaret, testified that "some [of the men] had had no pay for three years," and alleged that La Salle had mistreated them.[9][10] Joining Tonti at Starved Rock, two men who had been at the fort told him of the fort's destruction. Tonti sent messengers to La Salle in Canada to report the events. Tonti then returned to Fort Crèvecoeur to collect any tools not destroyed[3] and moved them to the Kaskaskia Village near Starved Rock. On September 10, 1680, nearly six hundred Iroquois warriors, armed with guns, approached the Kaskaskia village.[3] Meeting them in advance, de Tonti was accused of treachery, by both the Iroquois and the Illinois Confederation.[3] Tonti tried to mediate their disagreements and delay the Iroquois attack until the women, children and old people could escape from the village. Tonti was wounded by an Iroquois man, who stabbed him with a knife.[3] The Kaskaskia village was burned and the Iroquois built a fort on that site near Starved Rock. Tonti with his allies fled the area, heading for La Baye.[3] Fort PimiteouiIn 1691, Tonti returned to the area and founded another fort. This fort is known variously as Fort St. Louis II, Fort St. Louis du Pimiteoui, Fort Pimiteoui, and Old Fort Peoria (Pimiteoui, was the name of what is now called, Peoria Lake). It remained off and on a center of trade, particularly fur trade, and sometimes settlement throughout the colonial period.[11] See also{{Portal|New France}}
