Bram Stoker, born on this day in 1847, was often in Indianapolis, and well-acquainted with James Whitcomb Riley, who he described as "one of the most dramatic reciters that live, and when he gives one of his own poems it is an intellectual delight."

I completed Final Fantasy 16. Then I watched @The_Ben_Starr playing it on a stream. He kept using Will-o’-the-Wikes, an ability that I ignored on my first play through. Wow, what a game-changer that ability is! I guess I needed Clive himself to show me how to play correctly.
This day in history 30th of August, 1817. A notice for a lost or stolen horse in the Indiana Republican newspaper. They offered a generous $10 reward. Now I must know if this horse was ever recovered! newspapers.library.in.gov/?a=d&d=IRE1817…
#OTD in 1810, Tecumseh addressed William Henry Harrison in Vincennes. He hoped to persuade Harrison to both relinquish American claim to land acquired in the Treaty of Ft. Wayne and prevent further encroachment on native land. This meeting only increased tensions.
