Sinossi
Excerpt from History of Labette County, Kansas, From the First Settlement to the Close of 1892
To those who know me, and who are at all familiar with my business, I hardly need to say that my labor on this volume has been principally performed at such times as most people take either for sleep or rest. It goes to the printer as first written or dictated, and therefore, almost of necessity, will in many respects present an unfinished appearance. For the sake of a more accurate statement of facts, as well as for the pur pose of presenting a work with more literary merits, I should have been glad, could I have taken the time, to have rewritten the entire volume; but as I have not the time to devote to that purpose, I send it forth in its original garb.
Herodotus, in the opening sentence of his immortal history, says that the object of its production was to preserve from oblivion the memory of former incidents. I have tried to have a no less worthy object in writing the following pages.
