n I l THE FULL PIACK f r I 'Z -f I iv i HISTORY OF FORT LEAVENWORTH RAYMOND D. MURRY 4 Fort Leavenworth was established in 182 rimaril to serve as an out ost for the . . 2 P Y . P. . protection of the trade caravans operating across the plains from Franklin, Missouri, to Santa Fe, New Mexico. This route was later known as the Santa Pe Trailn. Senator Thomas I-I. Benton 'asked Congress to place a fort where the Santa Fe Trail crossed the Arkansas 'River, but Major General Jacob Brown, Commanding the U. S. Army, suggested a central garrison from which expeditions could issue as emergencies arose. General Brown's suggestion was accepted. Colonel Henry Leavenworth, was ordered by the War Department in 1827 to proceed from Jefferson Barracks, Missouri, with four companies of the 3rd U. S. Infantry, and establish a permanent post on the left bank of the Missouri River within twenty miles of the confluence of the Little Platt and the Missouri Rivers. Colonel Leavenworth exceeded his instructions by choosing a site on the right bank of the river and at a greater distance than twenty miles from the mouth of the Little Platt but his actions were justified by the ideal site chosen. A stone wall was constructed around the site as a protection against the Indians. Part of this wall has been restored and still stands. Illness forced the 3rd Infantry to withdraw from the Post in 1829. The 6th Infantry replaced them but spent only the winter at the Fort. Supplies were diflicult to obtain. Soldiers were used to open roads. By a strange coincidence the 3rd Infantry which established Fort Leavenworth in 1827, is now training CMTC students at the Post, 100 years later. In 1829, a post office was established thereby saving a twenty-six mile horseback trip to Liberty, Missouri. ' The plains were populated slowly. Indians were persuaded by payments to restrict themselves to reservations. Sixteen tribes consented and the Kickapoos and Delawares were assigned land near the Post. In 1830, the first important conference with seven neighboring tribes was held at the Post. I Orders were issued July 20, 1834, promoting Colonel Leavenworth to Brigadier General. The :Oregon Trail' in 1846 became a new highway to protect because of the increas- ing number of caravans to California and the Northwest. Many Mormons passed through Fort Leavenworth from 1845 to ISSO, enroute to Pike's Peak and to California. The war with Mexico increased activity at Fort Leavenworth. The c'Army of the West , made up of Missourians, was organized here under General Stephen S. Kearney. This army marched 900 miles and took Santa Fe, later it marched to California. In 1859, the telegraph was extended to the Fort from St. Louis and in I86O, the Pike's Peak Express started from the city of Leavenworth to Salt Lake City. In 1857 an expedition commanded by General Albert Sydney Johnston, was organized at the Post and proceeded to Utah to punish the Mormons who refused to obey the laws. In 1858, six companies of the 6th Infantry were assembled at the Post and marched over- land to California. Fort Leavenworth was the central supply depot during the Civil War. It was also a concentrating post for troops operating against the Indians. ' In 1881, the Infantry and the Cavalry School was established at the Post and General W. T. Sherman laid the corner stone of the present school buildings. In 1901 the two schools were enlarged into the General Service Schools. This school has furnished a great number of officers for high commands during the World War. During the World War the Post was a training camp for various units. Fort Leaven- worth has become one of the most important centers for Summer Training Camps, includ- ing the CMT Camps, since the enactment of the National Defense Act in 1920. Page Fifty-four I
