i went to high school in east port, maine, which is on moose island. very close to canada. and we all knew in eastport that henry clay had insisted after the war of 1812, the island had been taken by the british. he had insisted when he negotiated the end of the treaty that the island be returned. even when john quincy adams was able to let british have the island. i'm wondering if any of the historians would know why he was so add mant on the return of moose island in east port to america. >> i don't know if you know the specifics. >> not an expert on moose island. i do know that clay when making the treaty of the war of 1812, he took the strongest position of all of the american delegates. he wanted america to have a strong position. clay tended to try to get everything he could. i'm not sure on which island. i hope another historian can tell us. >> we started live about the antagonism towards -- what can you tell us about that as a gin point in his philosophy? >> well, he felt, of course, that the british were still trying to hold on, punish america with the war of 1812.
