The story of Tecumseh and his brother, the Shawnee prophet, has a superstitious aftermath. William Henry Harrison was elected President in 1840. He gave one of the longest inaugural addresses on record in the spring of the following year while standing in the cold. A month later, he died of pneumonia.he Battle of Tippecanoe and its Aftermath. Fight it out they did. While Tecumseh was away on a diplomatic visit to an Indian tribe in the south, his brother, the Prophet, led an attack on General Harrisons encampment on a hill across a creek from Prophet Town near the Tippecanoe river.
In the resulting battle, the Prophet and his forces were overwhelmed and defeated. Tecumseh's Confederation had suffered a blow from which it never really recovered. Tecumseh's Confederation was the last time there was a unified Native American resistance to U.S. forces. In the War of 1812, Tecumseh allied with the British, hoping that if they won his people would get their land back. It didn't work out.
