    Aunque la Guerra de 1812 había terminado dos semanas antes, las noticias aún no habían llegado a New Orleans y en este día, 8 de enero de 1815, cinco mil soldados británicos hicieron un ataque frontal contra los francotiradores de Tennessee y Kentucky del general Andrew Jackson. El pirata francés Jean Lafitte y sus hombres ayudaron a los americanos. Y en sólo media hora, más de 2,000 británicos murieron contra sólo ocho americanos. El general Jackson escribió: "Tal parece que la inconfundible mano de la Providencia protegió a mis hombres de la lluvia de las balas, bombas y cohetes, cuando cada bomba de nuestras armas llevaban con ellas la misión de muerte".
