It is, on the whole, a level and fertile region, depending for its drainage upon the headwaters of Treaty and Deer creeks, which flow northward into the Wabash and Salamonie, respectively, and upon the ]\Iississinewa River and its branch, Grant Creek, which meander through its central and south- - western sections. Josina Creek has some of its headwaters in the southwestern corner of the township, after which it takes a loop through nortliern Grant County and joins the Mississinewa River in the southwestern corner of Liberty Township. It was near its mouth that the Indian village stood Avhich was destroyed by Lieutenant Colonel Campbell in the War of 1812.
