Just what happened two hundred years ago (1809), this January? Funny you asked:

--House considered investigating General James Wilkinson--
--Henry Clay and Humphrey Marshall wounded in Kentucky duel--
--Senate considered bill to incorporate religious societies in Washington City--
--Senate passed bill dividing Indiana Territory into two jurisdictions--
 Sure sounds like picking up this Wednesday's Webster Republican.
Read about it, in this month's calendar!
