On
July 29, 1804 the Corps of Discovery left Kaw Point at 4:30 PM after
holding a court martial for two members accused of stealing whiskey
out of camp supplies. John Collins received 100 lashes and Hugh Hall
50. Collins got double because he'd been on guard duty. The sign at
Parkville tells how they saw the Little Platte River which met the
Missouri here then. Now they meet upstream from here. Left photos,
down the Missouri. Up the river, above. |
