Alexander A. Meek To General Gano


Alexander A. Meek To General John S. Gano 

Headquarters Upper Sandusky Jany 18th, 1813.

My worthy old friend

Genl. Harrison ordered us on here from Franklinton some time since of which I advised you. We left there on New Years day... .  Genl. Harrison & his suit left here this morning for Lower Sandusky. We march this day for the rapids of the Maumee ... .




There is now here about 2500 Men which I expect will follow us in a few days. This place & Delaware has been very sickly — three buried here yesterday.

I cannot help expressing my great pleasure at the beauties of this country, the plains of Sandusky are the most beautiful my eyes ever beheld, they are in every respect elegant.
