Patrick Gass · Missouri River near Jefferson City area · Thwaites Vol. Gass 1807 First Edition
The place today: Missouri River near Jefferson City area
passed a small creek on the north side in a long bend of the
river, and encamped at the mouth of Grand river, on the
north side. This is as handsome a place as I ever saw in an
uncultivated state.
