1840 April 28, Prairie du Chien: Hercules L. Dousman to Henry H. Sibley
A.L.S. 1p.
: Writer says that the “Ariel” is detained below DuBuque for repairs and probably will not be for ten days. Will send the provisions up by the first boat to leave for St. Peters. Believes Gen. Atkinson will build on Turkey River instead of Red Cedar; has urged Atkinson to do this as “it will keep the small frye near the Mississ[ippi] and leave us the Red Cedar clear.”
