Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Origin and Early History of the Order of Patrons of Husbandry in the United States Believing that earnest Patrons of Husbandry would be interested in perusing a history of the origin, and the early days, of our Order, I was constrained to prepare this little brochure and send it out on its mission of information, trusting that it would receive kindly consideration at the hands of the Grange fraternity. It makes no claim to literary merit or embellishment, nor does it undertake to give a history of the Order, or of the things accomplished by the Order, during all the years since its organization. It would take a volume of much larger dimensions to chronicle, even briefly, the things accomplished by the Grange in the farmers´ interests. But it docs claim to give a concise, accurate and unembellished account of the foundation of the Grange and a somewhat detailed history of the first decade or so of its existence. In the preparation of the manuscript for this little History, I was kindly given access to all the original documents and the hundreds of letters written by the "Founders" of the Order, which are still in the possession of Brother O. H. Kelley of Washington, D. C., and to his "History of the Grange" I am indebted for much of the historical information herein presented. From other sources, particularly from those who were indirectly associated with the organization in its early years, much has been learned which I now pass along to Patrons of Husbandry everywhere, that they may know of the struggles and triumphs, the successes and failures, the hopes and fears of the founders of the Grange. May it not teach us still greater reverence for those who, in those early years, builded even better than they knew, and inspire in us all a loftier appreciation of the noble precepts of our beneficent Order!
