Clark's Capture of Kaskaskia (1911)
Fort Kaskaskia was the first to succumb to George Roger Clark's intrepid dash. The British feared him. He defended the settlers in Kentucky, and shattered the army of the traitor, Arnold. The supercilious English Lord Lounsberry, felt secure in his prize, won through a stern parent's connivance right from the arms of her lover, George Clark. But he is not aware of the prowess of the American trapper. A ball is being given in honor of the bride-to-be. Finely clad ladles of surpassing loveliness, dance on the arms of their splendidly-bedecked cavaliers. Wine is flowing freely and mirth runs high, when like a thunderbolt in their midst, stands the redoubtable Clark. The guard has been overpowered by the stealthy and brave woodman. The trapper's flashing sword finds swift and sure lodgment against his rival's breast. The flag on the fort is pulled down and his own run up in its stead, there to stay for all time to come, and in his arms, once more he holds the lovely girl for whom be would brave the dangers of Hell itself, and whose love is as strong for him as his for his country.All Releases
