tury Lu Salle’s explorations
brought him through Ihe wooded
wilderness of Indiana. Shortly
there followed Jesuit missionar
ies from Quebec and In their
trail came adventurous rangers
and fur traders. French forts
and trading posts were soon es
tablished. In 1703 the British
took possession of tills territory
after the French and Indian
wars, and remained in posses
sion until the Revolution.
One of the boldest campaigns
of the Revolution was tliut of
Clark's little army, whose indom
itable courage and audacity final
ly defeated the large British gar
rison at Vincennes and won the
Northwest territory for Virginia.
Pioneers from the East and from
Kentucky made their way into
this new territory, and among
these was Abraham Lincoln's
family. It was In 1818, the year
that Indiana became the nine
teenth state, that Lincoln at
tained citizenship in Indiana,
With the increase in population
by 1800 Indiana Territory was
formed, extending from the Ohio
bonier west to the Mississippi
and north to Canada. Vincennes
was selected as the first capital.
In 1804, when (he Louisiana Pur
chase was made, the government
of Louisiana was placed in the
hands of the Indiana Territory
officials, so that for one year the
capital of Louisiana was also
at Vincennes in Indiann.
Although nicknamed the Hoo
sier State, from the old
southern slnng for rough back
woodsmen, Indiana, with its 36,-
254 square miles, its fifteen Pres
idential electors, and containing
as It does the center of popula

portance politically.
