Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Sketch of the Life and Public Services of William Henry Harrison: With an Appendix Containing the Letters of Aids-De-Camp John Chambers, John Speed Smith, Charles S. Todd and John O'fallon; Extracts From Public Documents Young Harrison was educated at Hampden Sydney College; and, by the advice of his friends, turned his attention to the study of medicine. But about the period when he had completed his education, soon after the death of his father, the increased and bar barous hostilities of the Indians on our northwestern borders, began to excite a feeling of indignation throughout the whole country. In this general excitement our young student participated so warmly, that he resolved to relinquish his professional pursuits, and join the army destined to the defence of the Ohio frontier.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Sketch of the Life and Public Services of William H. Harrison: Commander in Chief of the Northwestern Army During the War of 1812, &C The prominent position now occupied by General Harrison before the American people, renders it peculiarly proper that a brief sketch of his life and public services should be laid before his fellow-citizens; for although his public acts, both in a civil and military capacity, have been tor the lasting glory and honor of our whole country, yet in consequence of his having resided for the greater part of his life among the patriotic and chivalric inhabitants of the Western States, they are more familiar with his history than those who reside in the East and North. It was this acquaintance with the man, or rather - to make use of the endearing appellation by which he has been universally known - it was this acquaintance with the Washington of the West, that has there produced such a general and ardent feeling in his favor; that the people have, in despite of party dictation, borne him triumphantly along, for the highest office in their gift, until there is now no doubt but be will be elected by a most decisive majority. It will be apparent that our efforts to compress the materials of his eventful life, in the compass of a few pages, has compelled us to omit all those minute illustrations of particular facts, which have in, reality given to his life all the beauty of romance. To see a youth of eighteen years of age, leaving his kindred, and friends, and paternal roof, and inspired by a lofty patriotism, marching into the savage wilderness, and battling with the enemies of his country; and then in a few years to find him in the councils of the nation, exerting himself to promote the civil institutions he had so gallantly defended in the field; and then again leading the armies of our country to victory at the dreadful midnight conflict of Tippecanoe, and at the hard-fought siege of Fort Meigs, and the still more brilliant victory of the Thames, - together opens a field for meditation, which it is impossible to express in the few pages we have devoted to the history of his life. To have pursued a subject of this kind in all its details, would have been grateful to our feelings, but the brevity of our plan will forbid it. We must leave the reader to fill up for himself the many omissions we are compelled to make. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Sketch of the Life and Public Services of William H. Harrison: Commander in Chief of the North Western Army, During the War of 1812, &C Lieutenant Harrlson acted as aid to General Wayne during the whole of the ensuing campaigns; and his bravery and gallant conduct throughout were such, that he was repeatedly officially noticed in term sof the highest encomium. The war was conducted by General Wayne with all the cool daring of a veteran soldier, and the sagacity of a prudent General - until finally, on the 2otb of August, 1794. He fought the bloody and desperate battle of the Miami, in which the confederated In dians, with their allies, were totally defeated. Their heavy losses in this battle so disheartened the Indians, that, a few months after, they entered into negotiations for a treaty of peace, giving hostages for their good faith - and thus, with the close of this war, were extinguished what may be considered the last embers of our revolutionary struggle. In his despatch to the Secretary of War, after this decisive victory, General Wayne, 'in mentioning those whose good conduct made them conspicuous on this occasion, says My faithful and gallant aids-de-camp, Captains De Butts and T. Bwis, and lieuten ant harrison, with the Adjutant-general, Major Mills, ren dered the most essential service, by communicating my orders in every direction, and by their conduct and bravery exciting the tr00ps to press for victory. Soon after this battle, Lieutenant Harrison received the commission of a captain, and was placed in command of Fort Washington - the most important station on the western fron tier. He remained in the army till the close of the year, 1797, when, as there was no longer an opportunity to serve his country in the field, he resigned his commission, to commence his career of civil services He was almost immediately ap pointed Secretary, and, ex-ofiicio, lieutenant-governor of the Northwestern territory; which then embraced the whole ex tent of our country lying Northwest of the Ohio river - thus receiving his first civil appointment in that part of our coun try which he had periled his life to defend.
