General HARRISON has done more for his country,

PRESIDENT MADISON
Ex-Governor Isaac Hill, Nov. 90, 1913, in the
New Hampshire Patriot said;
What man lives, whose whole hear and soul IN
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 scalpng knife If there he such an one
he is traitor to his country possesses the spirit Of
murderer"
JOHN M. Niles, late Van Buren, candidate for
Governor in Connecticut, in his Life OF Perry,
published in 1921, after giving general biogra-
ply Of General Harrison, said:
The defence Of Fort Megs, and the subsequent
capture Of the British army may be fairly considered
the most brilliant and extraordinary events Of the late
war
In abiding TO the battle Of the Thames, he said:
must be conceded that this rcfory rsascfed great
honor upon The national arms and upon the troops by
inlom it ,cds adhered
The action, and the movements which preceded il,
afford ample testimony of the judgment and cool intre-
pdty of General Harrison and indeed all the events
of the campaign support these characteristics; the
disasters attending it having, in instance, been i'm
putable to him.
There are perhaps record few instances Of such
cool and steady ntrepidty the part Of militia or
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
