#30 – ‘brave as Caesar’: Clark to Greenville [MM4.9]

On the escalation of the Northwest war to the Fallen Timbers

As James O’Fallon noted to Jonathan Clark: “Yr. Brother, William is gone out, as a cadet, with Genl. Scott, on the Expedition. He is a youth of solid & promising parts, and as brave as Caesar.” This entry follows William from 1791 to the Battle of Fallen Timbers and the march back to Fort Greenville.
