The campaign in Ohio and Indiana, which was to give peace to the frontier and loosen the British grip upon the Northwest was the crowning work of Wayne's life. Strictly speaking, the war that called Wayne to the frontier was a prolongation of the War of the Revolution. Though the treaty of peace made with England had been rati fied, it had not been carried out, and while the British could no longer claim territory to the south of the Great Lakes, they encouraged the Indians to hold and fight for these broad lands. In 1792 Washington appointed General Wayne commander-in-chief of the American Army and he was ordered to Pittsburgh to organize troops for the purpose of subduing these Indian tribes. This company was called the Legion of the United States, and the men for the command were gath ered by sweeping the streets and prisons of the eastern cities of their beg gars, tramps, and criminals, and let it be remembered that this was the second sweeping, the first having gone to St. Clair.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fort Wayne in 1838Whatever relates to the early history of the place of long residence is of much interest, and more, if time has thrown the period of early incidents far into the past, or if the march of improvement has removed nearly every vestige of early appear ance. For this purpose we shall, for a few days, change the bill of fare which we ordinarily set before our readers, and go back twenty-two years, and after noticing a few places on the road most generally then traveled to and from Fort Wayne, give a bird's-eye view of this place as it appeared in March and during the summer of 1838, hoping to thereby induce others whose history goes back of that period, to give some of their recollections.About the first of March, 1838, the writer for the first time leaving home in Dearborn County, Indiana, was mounted on horse and turned face northward for Fort Wayne, then one of the outposts, and which was reached only after long and tedious journeyings. But it so happened that the ground was frozen, and on it laid a deep and well-packed snow, the depth of which continued to increase as we each day neared the city of our destination, and which we reached on sleds, sleighs, and jumpers, and on horse over the Piqua Road to Fort Wayne.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fort Wayne, the Frontier Post Quiet streams abounding with fish, forests rich in game brought the Indian to this spot on the three rivers where Fort Wayne stands today. The search for a new route to the Mississippi and a king's favor brought the early French explorer this way. The re demption of souls was the pioneer priest's motive. While the trader dreamed of wealth from the furs and pelts of the wilderness. The three rivers lured them all. And when the trail had been blazed and trading posts and missions established, the settler followed with his goods and family. Fort Wayne, with its rapidly changing skyline, stands on a spot that has been prized by mankind since prehistoric times. The red man believed that he had inherited the place from his father, the Great Spirit. That is why he held it so tenaciously and tried to defend his inheritance against an enemy who proved in time too much for him-his white brother.
