Thayer's Note:

a The phrase "but not at the seat of war" occurs frequently in the Register in connection with the Black Hawk War; the explanation in most cases is the one given in the biographical sketch of James Monroe (q.v.); in this case, it looks like the cholera killed him.

Images with borders lead to more information.
The thicker the border, the more information. (Details here.)
