Excerpt from East Feliciana, Louisiana
Vast schemes of colonization were generated in the older settlements when Mr. Jefferson made proclamation. In October, 1803, that a boundless fertile unpopulated empire had been transferred the previous April by France to the United States. That famous state paper found eager readers among our imme diate ancestors. A population clinging to the sides of the mountain ranges of the Carolinas and Southwestern Virginia, cultivating the narrow valleys of the Clinch and Holston, rugged as the crags; impetuous as the torrents of their native moun tains, still full of the military Spirit inspired by the camp fires and on the battlefields of the Revolutionary war - still rehears ing by the light of their pine torches, the shame of Camden and Guilford Courthouse and the glory of Saratoga, King's Mountain and Yorktown - still burning with patriotic fires which lighted, Sumpter, Pickens, Laurens and all the heroic chiefs of cavalier and Huguenot strain the path to glory, and many a tory minion of King George the way to dusky death.
