The history of a country is best told in a record of the
lives of its people. In conformity with this idea the
PORTRAIT AND BIOGRAPHICAL ALBUM of this county has been prepared. Instead of going to musty records, and taking therefrom dry
statistical matter that can be appreciated by but few, our corps of writers have gone to the people, the men and women who have,
by their enterprise and industry, brought the county to a rank second to none. And from their lips have the story of their
life struggles. No more interesting or instructive matter could be presented to an intelli
gent public. In this volume will be
found a record of many whose lives are worthy of the imitation of coming generations.
