Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Col. Henry Bouquet and His Campaigns of 1763 and 1764 On the 26th of April 1883, a meeting was held in the arbitration room of the court house at Greensburg, Westmoreland county, Pa., to consider the propriety of celebrating the 120th anniversary of the victory of Col. Henry Bouquet at Bushy Run, August 5 and 6, 1763, over the Confederates of Pontiac. Ex-Lieut.-Gov. John Latta was called to the chair, and Gen´l Richard Coulter and Hon. Jacob Turney were elected Vice Presidents; Maj. Jas. M. Laird, Frank Vogle and Curtis Gregg were chosen as Secretaries. By request of the meeting Rev. Cyrus Cort, a resident of Greencastle, Pa., but a native of Greensburg, Pa., was called upon to address the meeting, which he did for over half an hour, eulogizing the character and achievements of Bouquet and showing the far-reaching results of his decisive victory at Bushy Run. Rev. Cort read a letter from Hon. Joseph H. Kuhns, regretting his inability to be present and heartily approving the object of the meeting in its efforts to honor the memory of Bouquet, whose march and victory in 1763 were wonderful military achievements and did much to promote the rapid settlement of the west.
