Below is an image from my collection for your enjoyment: Major General Hugh Brady Quarter plate daguerreotype .
In 1794, Meriweather Lewis joined the militia and, at the rank of Ensign, was attached to a sub legion of General "Mad Anthony" Wayne commanded by Lieutenant William Clark. Hugh Brady was also a Lieutenant under Wayne sharing the experiences of the Northwest Campaign against the British and the Indians. In July 1812 he received a commission as colonel from President James Madison. He was given command of the 22nd Infantry Regiment and saw action at the Battle of Chippawa and the Battle of Lundy's Lane, where he was severely wounded.
