Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Collections of the Illinois State Historical Library, Vol. 1 At the sessions of our legislature in 1901, Hon. George W. Stubblefield, the Senator from McLean County, introduced a bill, approved May 10, 1901, whereby $2,500 was "appropriated for the purpose of procuring documents, papers, materials and publications relating to the Northwest and the State of Illinois, and [for] publishing the same." Which was "to be expended by the Trustees of the State Historical Library," for that purpose, "with the sanction of the Governor." Under this act the Board of Trustees of the Library named, with the sanction of Governor Richard Yates, ordered material of the kind required, to be gathered for such publication. This work and the editing of it was; assigned to H. W. Beckwith by his associate trustees. In touch with them he has accordingly collected, arranged, edited and annotated the matter, provided the cuts, and supervised the printing of the matter in this volume. While the material herein is original and authentic, the Editor, as well for himself as for his associate trustees, says that they are not responsible for statements as to facts as they appear in any of the historical documents, herein published.
