During this period of time, although most of his time had been spent in agricultural pursuits, and he had been frequently honored by his countrymen, as a member of the Virginia legislature, and lived, at the close of the Revolutionary war, in peace and plenty, yet, such was his delight in hunting-such his devotedness to it, that in the year 1799, with a numerous train of followers, he removed Kentucky, and settled on the Femme Osage River, which empties itself into the Missouri river about 50 miles above its mouth, then a wilderness.
