This original newspaper contains news of the WAR of 1812, including Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry 's naval victory over the British at the BATTLE OF LAKE ERIE. This issue also contains news of the US army attack on Massesquoi Bay (Lake Champlain, QUEBEC, Canada) led by Colonel Isaac Clark. The Battle of Lake Erie, also known as the Battle of Put-in-Bay, was fought on 10 September 1813, on Lake Erie off the shore of Ohio during the War of 1812. Nine vessels of the United States Navy defeated and captured six vessels of the British Royal Navy. This ensured American control of the lake for the rest of the war, which in turn allowed the Americans to recover Detroit and win the Battle of the Thames to break the Indian confederation of Tecumseh. It was one of the largest naval battles of the War of 1812.Oliver Hazard Perry (August 23, 1785 – August 23, 1819) was a United States Navy officer from South Kingstown, Rhode Island. A prominent member of the Perry family naval dynasty, he was the son of Sarah Wallace Alexander and Captain Christopher Raymond Perry, and older brother of Commodore Matthew C. Perry. Perry served in the West Indies during the Quasi War of 1798–1800 against France, in the Mediterranean during the Barbary Wars of 1801–1815, and in the Caribbean fighting piracy and the slave trade, but is most noted for his role in the War of 1812 during the 1813 Battle of Lake Erie.During the War of 1812, on October 11, 1813, an American expeditionary force entered the Missisquoi Bay of Lake Champlain in Quebec, Canada, intent on raiding the area. Their goal was to stop smuggling goods across the border. They succeeded in defeating a contingent of Canadian militia and raid the town of Philipsburg, Quebec. Colonel Isaac Clark led a raid into the Missisquoi Bay.Clark's force sailed into the bay on one sloop, ten bateaux, and two scows carrying a total of 400 Americans. Their first stop was the house of Captain Cook of the Canadian militia. They plundered his house of all valuables. They then sailed to Philipsburg where a small group of Canadian militia opposed them. 150 of Clark's force landed and surrounded the Canadians. After a short firefight 1 Canadian was killed, 8 wounded, and 100 taken prisoner. Two stores in Philipsburg were looted but most houses remained untouched. At 5:00 pm the Americans departed for the nearby Rock River and stayed there the night. The next morning the Americans plundered two more houses. Many horses and cattle were sized and then the Americans returned to their side of the border. Very good condition.
