Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Cincinnati´s Beginnings: Missing Chapters in the Early History of the City and the Miami Purchase; Chiefly From Hitherto Unpublished Documents The first purchases from the Government, about the time of the commencement of its operation under the constitution, of lands in what was then called the Northwest Territory, with the attendant efforts for the establishment and maintenance of settlements therein are fairly to be reckoned among the notable occurrences of the earliest period of the history of the United States as a nation; and anything essential to the completing of the account of the transactions might be looked upon even from a national standpoint, as deserving of preservation. The new claimant to a separate and equal station in the political firmament having emerged triumphantly from the arduous struggle in arms for independence, popular effort is then soon seen directed to plans for the redemption of a continent from a waste by the arts of peace. Prominent in the van of such manifestations were two schemes of purchase and settlement, of the description referred to, viewed by some with prophetic ken in the day of their inception as fraught with promise for the future, and to which, when regarded in the light of results thus far, it could not be alleged there was ever attributed an undue significance.
