Description
Late in November 1832, Bodmer journeyed by horseback beyond the Wabash into neighboring Illinois, ostensibly to hunt prairie chickens. Arriving at the settlement of Albion, he stayed there several days and also visited the settlement of Bon Pas and James Green's farm at Green's Prairie. In January 1833 Maximilian visited this same area with Thomas Say.
