GRANT TOWNSHIP.

"Green be the turf above thee, Friend of my better days; None knew thee but to love thee, Nor named thee but to praise."

"The loyal people of the nation look to you, under the providence of God, to lead their armies to victory."-Lincoln to Grant, when he handed him his commission as Lieutenant General.

Grant township (91-33), at the time of its establishment, June 6, 1870, was named in honor of Gen. U. S. Grant.

The main part of this chapter is a contribution from Mr. C. II. Tollefs- rude, one of the pioneers of the township, who was later elected county auditor and now resides at Rolfe. Appreciating their historic value in future years he made a record of events as they occurred during the early days in a diary. His valuable contributions therefrom to the public press of the county in the past have caused him to be recognized as the historian of Grant township. His true historic instinct appears in the fact that his interest embraced all the families in the township and every event worthy of men- tion. He will be gratefully remembered by the citizens of this township for the loving service he has thus rendered by placing the experiences and deeds of their fathers in everlasting remembrance. The author of this work is greatly indebted to him for other literary contributions to it; for a number of photographic views of places and objects of historic interest in the north- east part of the county, and for valuable services rendered by constantly acting as a special correspondent.
