PRESIDENT MADISON. +
Ex-Governor Isaac Hill, Nov. go, 1913, in the
New Hampshire Patriot said:
What man lives, whose whole heart and soul is
not British, that cannot sincerely rejoice in the late
victories of Perry and Harrison, that does not feel
pride in the valor and patriotism of the heroes OF
the West who have freed country large as the En-
pre of Alexander the Great, from the Indian toma-
hawk and scalping knife If there be such an one,
he is traitor to his countryhe possesses the spirit OF
a murderer"
JoHN M. NILES late Van Buren, candidate for
Governor in Connecticut, in his Life OF Perry,
published in 1921, after giving general blogra-
ply of General Harrison, said:
The defence of Fort Meigs, and the subsequent
capture of the British army may be fairly considered
the brilliant and extraordinary events Of the late
war;
In abiding TO the battle of the Thames, he said :
must be conceded that this rictory reflected great
honor upon the national arms, and upon the troops by
irhom 10 tods adhered
" The action and the movements which preceded it
afford ample testimony of the judgment and cool ntre
pidty of General Harrison and indeed all the events
of the campaign support these characteristics; the
disasters attending having in instance, been inn
putabe to him
There are perhaps on record few instances Of such
cool and steady intrepidy, the part of militia
a force of this description, was displayed on this
occasion
Harrison and Perry left Detroit in the Ariel, and
arrived at Erie on the 22d Of October Here they
received with every demonstration of JOY and ad
miration; the discharge of cannon illumnations &C.
They hailed the deliverers of the frontiers
