Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from History of O´brien County, Iowa, From Its Organization to the Present Time It is thirty-six years since O´Brien County was organized, and twenty-five years, since the writer of these pages became a resident. It was thought best to write its history, for, as the years go on apace, much that pertains to its early settlement will be lost to oblivion, unless rescued, before all of its early settlers pass on to the silent majority. Compared with most of the counties of Iowa, O´Brien is, after all, still young in the years of its organization, for, as a matter of municipal or governmental history, it is not a long stretch of time, since there was broken the first furrow of its soil, and since the smoke from its first cabin, curled to the astonished clouds. There is herein, no attempt at literary proficiency or distinction. It is only a desire to tell the simple unvarnished tale; to write such facts as shall constitute a record of what has gone before, and up to the present date, from which point some future historian may continue the history, when we, who were active participants in its early struggles, shall have passed away.
