#33 – 'a very unfinished situation': Clark, 97-02 [MM4.12]

On George Rogers Clark, his lawsuits, and William’s few years of “domestick concerns”

After William left the military, he tended to his family — namely, his older brother, George Rogers’, dire financial straits. In addition to addressing lawsuits from Humphrey Marshall, Captain William Shannon and Laurent Bazadone, William travels to St. Louis for the first time (as well as tease his 1798 trip to New Orleans, which will feature heavily in a future Mile Marker).
