MR. THOMAS L. MACVEY, Jennings, Louisiana, ex-Recorder of Poca- hontas County:


I have read your history of Pocahontas County up to date and must congratulate you on its correctness. It is a grand work and should be in the library of every home in the county. Yours in Haste.


THOMAS L. MACVEY. Nov. 24, 1902,


MR. JOHN M. RUSSELL, San Francisco, Cal., a former resident of Lizard township:


I sincerly wish your reverence much success in your laudable task of pro- ducing the History of Pocahontas County. It was much like a letter from my distant home to receive the Fonda Times with your interesting narrative. April 2, 1902. JOHN M. RUSSELL.


MISS MARGARET E. RUSSELL, Lizard township:


I am so well pleased with the sketch of my father's life, Philip Russell, since he arrived on the Lizard, that I would like you would send me several copies of the Fonda Times containing it. I have looked carefully over all the proofs of the portraits sent me and I think they are excellent. I hope

you will meet with success in your good work.


March 8, 1899.


Yours Respectfully, MARGARET E. RUSSELL.


PRENTICE J. SHAW, Secretary and Treasurer of the Pocahontas County Mutual Fire & Lightning Iusnrance Co,, Rolfe:


The write up of the Pocahontas County Mutual Insurance Co. for the Pioneer History, as it appears in the copy of the Fonda Times, is correct and in good shape. Please accept thanks not only from me but through me from our association. Yours Very Truly,


Jan. 28, 1901.


P. J. SHAW, Secretary.


CAPT. FRANCIS E BEERS, Gilmore City, captain of the Rolling Wave and of the first steamboat to reach Fort Dodge on the Des Moines river:


I hereby certify that the account, in the Pioneer History of Pocahontas County, of the trips of the Rolling Wave, a wheelboat, in 1858; and of the Charles Rogers, up and down the Des Moines river from Keokuk to Fort Dodge, in 1859, are true and correct to the best of my knowledge. This cer- tificate is given because the accounts I have hitherto read have been inaccurate in many of their statements, Feb 3, 1902. F. E. BEERS.


MR. C. H. TOLLEFSRUDE, Rolfe, ex-Auditor of the county, and early resident and historian of Grant township:


I am highly pleased at the way the Pioneer Women of Grant township appear in the history, and thank you very much for arranging the matter relating to them so well. It seems to me that the Pioneer History, so far, has been admirably written in an exceptionally happy and pleasing style. It has been very interesting, and I am glad you took hold of the work as you did and at the time you did. The future at least will appreciate your work of compiling the early history of the county and it will have a good and re- liable foundation on which to build continuations or future histories of Pocahontas county. Very Truly, June 10, 1901. C. H. TOLLEFSKUDE.


MR. JOHN FRASER, Rolfe, a pioneer of Powhatan township:


You are taking an exceedingly great amount of labor in getting up this history of our county. I hope the citizens will appreciate your labor and interest. Yours Respectfully,


May 26, 1898. JOHN FRASER,


THE FONDA TIMES, Ang. 4, 1898, George Sanborn, Editor:


It is not necessary that we should say, that the Pioneer History of Poca- hontas County will be as thorough and accurate as it will be possible to make it.


THE POCAHONTAS RECORD, Pocahontas, Port C. Barron, Editor, 1898:


Rev. R. E. Flickinger is now at work on a history of this county. There seems to be a demand for a complete history of the county and the old settlers have been so kind in furnishing facts in regard to its early history that the volume will probably be double the size it was first intended. Mr. Flickinger is an able writer and the book when issued will be well worth the price that may by charged; for those interested will secure a volume that will not only contain the biographies of all the leading citizens. but will have much of the early history of the county never before seen in print. We hope this venture will prove a financial success.


THE POCAHONTAS SUN, Laurens, Feb. 16, 1899, Louie E. Lange, Editor:


We are in receipt of a neat booklet, entitled, The Story of Pocahontas, from the pen of Rev. R E Flickinger; the same being a chapter re- lating to Capt. John Smith and the Indian Princess, Pocahontas. from the forthcoming Pioneer History of Pocahontas County. Mr. Flickinger is a natural historian and a strong writer; no matter whether the subject re- quires the narrative or descriptive style, it is always interesting and in- structive. He is endowed with a happy faculty of knowing just what to retain and what toomit. His history of the county will be an interesting one.

FONDA TIMES.


The Fonda Times


Published at Fonda, Iowa, by the Fonda Publishing and Printing Company, L. W. Chandler, editor is the


The Oldest, Largest and Best Newspaper in Pocahontas County.


Established at Old Rolfe, April 6, 1876. Transferred to Pocahontas, Oct. 10, 1876. Transferred to Fonda, May 9, 1878.


The name was changed from Pocahontas to Fonda Times, June 21, 1894. It has been published by the Fonda Publishing and Printing Company since Jan. 1, 1901.


Pocahontas County is one of the fairest in the State of Iowa. The soil of her gently rolling prairies is unsurpassed in productive- ness, and the people are both intelligent and progressive. One factor that has contributed greatly to the realization of the present develop- ment has been the local county newspaper. When this county was a howling wilderness one local paper,


THE POCAHONTAS, now FONDA TIMES


raised its voice and predicted its glorious future. In later years other newspapers have been established and, swelling the chorus of praise, people seeking new and comfortable homes, have heard of the attractions of Pocahontas County, believed, located and are now the possessors of happy homes, productive farms, thriving herds or flour- ishing business enterprises. The proprietors of the Times point with pride to the leading part performed by the Times in former years in printing frequent special editions to promote the public welfare; and now notes its valuable contribution to the literature of the county in the completion of the splendid volume, entitled, The Pioneer His- tory of Pocahontas County.


The Fonda Times has the largest and best equipped printing office in Pocahontas County. All job work is done in the neatest and prettiest manner. Special workmen are employed for doing book work.


The members of the Fonda Publishing and Printing Company are M. G. COLEMAM, President. A. S. WOOD.


J. P. MULLEN, Vice President. L. S. STRAIGHT.


CLAY C. PATTY, Treasurer. E. H. FAIRBURN. L. W. CHANDLER, Secretary and Manager.


It shall be the constant aim of its present managers to make The Fonda Times worthy the cordial support of every citizen and family in Pocahontas county.
