THE HARRISON MANSION—Sometimes refer-
red to as the "White House of the West," was
erected and occupied by William Henry Harrison, the
first governor of Indiana Territory and who later
became the ninth president of the United States.
On the lawn in front of this historic old mansion,
surrounded by massive trees, was held the celebrated
interview between Gov. Harrison and Chief Tecumseh
with about seventy-five warriors, representing the
different tribes of Indians. This old mansion has
been purchased by the D. A. R. and this patriotic
organization now maintains this romantic old home
which is truly a real show place for the many
visitors who come to Historic Old Vincennes.
