Non-musical history for today: 1804 – William Clark and 42 men departed from Camp Dubois to join Meriwether Lewis at St Charles, Missouri, marking the beginning of the Lewis and Clark Expedition’s historic journey up the Missouri River. President Thomas Jefferson commissioned the expedition shortly after the Louisiana Purchase of 1803 to explore and detail as much of the new territory as possible and hopefully find a way to navigate the western part of the country more easily and practically.
