The French missionaries and Fur traders who first pushed their
way into "New France," found the tribes of the great Miami Con-
federacy in possession of what is now Indiana.
Of the early trading posts which the French established, the
only one to escape destruction by the savages, was Vincennes. It
is consequently the oldest town in the State.
From the cession to the English, and limited only by Indian wars, it has
enjoyed prosperity under the successive relations it has eld to Virginia, as a part
of the Northwestern Territory," as Indiana Territory, and finally as the nine-
teenth State of the Union.
Its populous city of Indianapolis, with public and private buildings of great
magnificence, has long ago outgrown the four square miles of unbroken forest
presented by the General Government to the State as the site of a capital.
The city of Lafayette stands on the famous Tippecanoe battle ground.
