Lewis Wetzel

Lewis Wetzel (1763–1808) was an American scout and frontiersman. Because of how feared he was by the Native American Tribes, he was nicknamed "Death Wind". He stood about 5ft 10in with knee length black hair. He was an expert with a knife and tomahawk and was even deadlier with a black powder rifle, or musket. While running at full speed, Death Wind could load powder from his powder horn, a ball round and pack it, aim it and fire with expert marksmanship every time. Raised in what is now the Northern Panhandle of West Virginia, his exploits were once hailed as similar to those of Daniel Boone.
