Sekula Gavrilović (Serbian Cyrillic: Секула Гавриловић; 1779- c. 1850) was one of the principal participants as a barjaktar (Flag bearer)[1] in the Battle of Mišar, and many other armed conflicts with the Turks before, during, and after in Karađorđe's Serbia. He left a memoir that was published during his lifetime.[2]
However, a testimony of the Battle of Mišar that Sekula Gavrilović participated in[3]as a Standard bearer, written during 1810 by Isidor Stojanović, some four years after the battle (1810), wasn't published until 1848, almost forty years later.
According to the testimony of Sekula Gavrilović[3], one of the Standard bearers in the battle, Gavrilović stated:
The leader arrived at Mišar on Saturday, there were a couple of minor clashes with the Turks on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday were peaceful, and the battle took place on Wednesday from eight in the morning until six in the afternoon ... "He (Karađorđe) arrived on Saturday. .. On Sunday morning, Turkish cavalrymen go out to look for šarampov (trench) ... Nothing on Monday, also on Tuesday ... On the eve of Wednesday, a letter written in German arrives from Vojvodina in which it says "Djoko Petrović (Karađorđe), hold on" !! All of Srem was convened to see how the Turks would capture and expel you to Šabac ... George could gather from this letter that the Turks would not come from the direction of Dubrava, or from the direction of the Sava, or from the direction of Cer ... Karađorđe was dressed in battle gear and riding trousers, on his head was a black fur hat (šubara) under which three fingers a red fez could be seen, on his feet he wore opanke, over his shoulders he carried two rifles, and hanging by his waist was a long, straight sabre.[4]
The statement read: On Wednesday morning, the Turks surrounded the šarampov (trench), first the cavalry ... From eight o'clock in the morning until noon, the battle lasted, and several hundred Turks fell, and many Serbs were killed and wounded ... Serbian cavalry clashed with theirs, while the foot soldiers in the trenches stood their ground at Žabar ... On the same day of the battle, many Serbian foot soldiers from the trenches (šaramps) jumped out and began routing the Turks... The Turks fled towards the Sava ...
The battle forced the Turks into retreat and provided a significant military and morale victory for the Serbian rebels.[5]
