21 ness for the opening of a new campaign. The latter was the choice of Harrison. T Selecting a position at the foot of the Miami Rapids, so as to completely command the navi- gation of the river, he formed there a general depot for the artillery, provisions, and military stores, and erecting such defences as the nature of the case would admit of, he gave it the name of Fort Meigs, in compliment to the worthy and patriotic Governor of Ohio. Here the whole materiel of our army for the ensuing ca...mpaign was deposited.
Gen. Proctor, who commanded the British force in Up- per Canada, with liis head quarters at Detroit, had been ordered to reinforce the Niagara frontier, with all the dis- posable troops at his command. He did not deem it advisa- ble, however, to weaken his position at Detroit, while a formidable enemy remained, in its neighborhood ; and he determined to attack and reduce Fort Meigs, destroy the stores there collected, and thus avert the danger with which he was himself threatened, and then he could with safety comply with the order which summoned him to the relief of the Lower Province.
