Excerpt from The Siege of Fort Erie: An Episode of the War of 1812 One of the most brilliant events of the War Of 1812 was the successful defense Of Fort Erie by the Americans against the veteran troops Of the British. Yet, I dare say, very few residents along the Niagara frontier are aware that within an hour's journey Of the city of Buffalo occurred some of the most severe fighting the nation has ever seen, or that the ruined and tottering wall of the old fort, still to be seen, marks the spot where sev eral hundred brave men gave up their lives in desperate struggle. A period of enforced leisure gave me an opportunity to examine the various authorities bearing upon the siege of Fort Erie, and this sketch grew out Of the notes I then made. Undoubtedly errors exist, although considerable pains has been taken to carefully verify each statement. I trust that they will be pardoned and that this sketch may serve to stimulate among a few, at least, the study of the history of the Niagara frontier during this period, than which nothing could be more interesting.
