Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Early Days in Texas and Rains County A history of the early settlement of Texas and Rains County, could it have been written as things happened would be a story full of fascination and interest for the old and young of this, or any other generation that may come, for it would be a story of deeds of heroism, of stern persistence, of deprivation of the comforts of life, of a struggle that finally resulted in the establishment of homes in the wilderness of what is now our great State and County. A large majority of the first settlers were descendants of men who had made for our country a history showing that they had a strong sense of justice and of individual liberty, for which they unyieldingly contended, regardless of consequences. After we have passed the meridian of life and are facing the sunset, we are wont to take a retrospective view of our lives and tell how it all happened. And as the books, public prints and files of newpapers of the present must be relied upon by future historians for data to aid them in giving a correct account of the past, it behooves us to give as correctly as possible the facts as nearly as we can ascertain them. With this, I dedicate this work to the pioneers - who suffered and toiled to pave the way for our present comforts of civilization - and present it to the reader for judgment.
