Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from History of Boone County, Indiana, Vol. 1: With Biographical Sketches of Representative Citizens and Genealogical Records of Old Families To write a history is but to commit to words in type events as they have transpired, and to be pure history, it must be colored as little as possible by the views or personal opinions of the writers. In presenting this history of Boone county, the author has attempted in every instance, to refrain from the expression of his opinions and to give the facts, indeed, it will be noticed, by the careful observer, that the same incident is given, in some instances, in different language, in more than one place, because coming from different sources of seemingly equal authority. I make no claim to originality, but have, with great care and much labor, sifted every possible particle of information, hoping from the mass to collect the best and most important facts and events for preservation. It has been impossible to publish all of the matter placed at my disposal; much has, no doubt, been omitted which should have been published, and much, perhaps, has been published which the reader will consider superfluous. Much information, in the possession of those who should have been glad to furnish it, has been omitted for lack of interest of those parties and their failure to furnish me the facts, though often requested so to do. The author desires to express his appreciation of the assistance of each and every one that has aided in the work and especially the press of the county. Strange N. Cragun and Ben F. McKey. Also the author desires to pay tribute to the careful and faithful work of Messrs. Harden and Spahr, who published a history of Boone county in 1887. The earnest endeavor on my part to give a complete history of the county to December 1, 1914, will, I trust, be appreciated.
