ReadAboutContentsHelp
Broadside entitled "Hero of the Wabash." Includes a poem telling of the cowardice of a "Captain Paul" during the Indian Wars, and an engraving of an Army officer running from a Native American. Captain Paul is not identified but it is believed that the broadside dates to either Harmar's (1790) or St. Clair's (1791) defeats in the Ohio country.
