22 May 1804

Lewis og Clark-ekspedisjonen begynte
På denne dag i 1804 forlot Lewis og Clark-ekspedisjonen St. Charles i Missouri og ekspedisjonen fikk dermed sin offisielle start. Lewis og Clark-ekspedisjonen var en oppdagelsesferd som foregikk fra mai 1804 til september 1806. Ekspedisjonen gikk til Stillehavet og tilbake, ledet av Meriwether Lewis og William Clark.

Ekspedisjons mål var dels å undersøke om det eksisterte en elv fra Missourielven og til Stillehavet, og dels for å kartlegge det da stort sett ukjente området vest for Mississippielven. De opplysninger som USA hadde om området før ekspedisjonen, var stort sett utilfredsstillende annenhåndsinformasjon fra britiske og spesielt fransk-kanandiske pelsjegere og handelsmenn som i noen generasjoner hadde besøkt området og ganske ofte giftet seg inn i ulike indianerstammer.

Et av hovedmålene for ekspedisjonen var å undersøke om det eksisterte en anvendbar vannvei fra Missourielven til Stillehavet. Svaret ble til manges skuffelse negativt. Man hadde også håpet at Marias River nådde betydelig lengre inn i landet enn hva som var tilfellet, ikke minst for at dette ville gitt grunnlag for ytterligere territoriale krav for USA. Da Lewis oppdaget hvordan dette forholdt seg døpte han den siste leiren ved elvebredden for «Camp Disappointment» (Skuffelsens leir).

    For sale: a Beaumont Vitali rifle

    For sale: A Dutch Beaumont rifle made by P. Stevens in Maastricht The Netherlands. It was made in 1874 as a single shot rifle and transformed to a magazine rifle in 1890 for the Dutch army. It doesn't have the small cracks in the wood around the magazine (a known weak spot). All Beaumont Vitali's lack the cleaning rod unfortunately. It has good rifling and good working mechanism. The magazine and rear sight still have the "dirty" type blueing.

    I have lots of pictures, so ask for more.

    Sales price is 530 euros incl. shipping to Norway with DPD.
