The Battle of Pequawket occurred on May 9, 1725 (O.S.), during Dummer's War in northern New England. Captain John Lovewell led a privately organized company of scalp hunters, organized into a makeshift ranger company, and Chief Paugus led the Abenaki at Pequawket, the site of present-day Fryeburg, Maine.
