Présentation de l'éditeur

William Henry Harrison, aide to A nthonjf .J ayne at tlie Battle of Fallen Timbers, First Territorial Governor of tlie Indiana Territory, victor at the Battle of Tippecanoe, Protector of Fort i. ayne in 1312, victor at the Battle of the Thames, victor at the siege of Fort Meigs, -J hig lolitician, and President of the United States, is the subject of this little pami-hlet. A definitive biograpliy of t!iis great American is in existence and his record is readily traced. However, it is primarily as one of the founders of Indiana and as the protector of Fort ilayne that lie interests us. .. ehave sought to trace in simple narrative iiis public and military career through the stirring events whicli culminated in the abandonment of the siege of Fort r. ayne in 1312. In t!ie years that followed he made substantial contributions and was indeed a maker of history, ie have felt, however, that the purpose of this subject is best served by terminating the narrative with the end of Harrison slocal services in I ndiana.
