Northwest Territory settlement and the Ohio Company
Ambitious pioneers gained control of the Northwest Territory through early lobbying. Brig. Gen. Rufus Putnam and Rev. Dr. Manasseh Cutler guided passage of the Northwest Ordinance of 1787, enabling the Ohio Company to acquire about 5 million acres for roughly $450,000, costing under 1 cent per acre. Putnam led the first settlers to Marietta, Ohio, and both men’s portraits flank a commemorative map.

The Life of Riley by Harvey Ferguson review
Bruce Catton critiques The Life of Riley set in the southwestern United States. He praises Ferguson’s grasp of locale and prose but finds the novel uneven with a strong lead character Riley, a frontier barkeeper’s son, failing to sustain the passion and psychology throughout.
