Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Annals of St. Louis in Its Early Days Under the French and Spanish Dominations
It fell to my lot in the month of March, 1804, to take possession of Upper Louisiana under the treaty of cession. The records and other public documents were open to my inspection; and, as it was my fortune to be stationed about five years on various parts of the Lower Mississippi, and nearly six months on Red river, my inquiries gradually extended to Louisiana in general.
