LETTERS OF APPROVAL.
CHICAGO, Feb. 23, 1876.
ROBERT FERGUS, EsQ .: My dear Sir :- I have looked over with great interest the copy of the "Chicago Directory, 1839," which you have kindly handed me, and sincerely thank you for the pleasure the perusal has afforded me. I am surprised to find how many of the persons whose names you give were per- sonally known to me, and still more surprised to find that, thus far, I have not recalled to recollection the name of a person whom I did know that is omitted. I trust you may find en- couragement to go on in your enterprise, and reproduce, as far as possible, these early publications, so important in establishing the early history of the Town.
Yours, very truly, MARK SKINNER.
CHICAGO, ILL., February 21, 1876.
ROBERT FERGUS : Dear Sir :-- I. have carefully read every word in your "Chicago Directory of 1839," and I hasten to thank you for the very great industry by which it is character- ized, and to express my great pleasure at its correctness. I was personally acquainted, at that time, with almost every man in the city, and my memory has not yet begun to fail. Besides, I have succeeded in collecting many copies, and parts of copies, of my old Chicago Democrat. And I know what I say when I say you have done your work well.
Yours of olden time,
JOHN WENTWORTH.
CHICAGO, February 23d, 1876.
ROB'T FERGUS, ESQ .: Dear Sir,-I have carefully examined your "Chicago Directory for 1839," and am pleased to say that it will compare favorably, for correctness, with any Directory published since. I was, at that time, and for several years previous had been, acquainted with nearly all the residents of the city, and do not recollect the name of any person who has been omitted.
Yours Truly,
JAMES H. REES.

LETTERS OF APPROVAL.
CHICAGO, February 22d, 1876.
MR. ROBERT FERGUS : Dear Sir,-I have, with great inter- est, carefully examined the proof sheets of your re-publication of the "Chicago Directory of 1839" (with which you then had much to do), as revised and corrected by yourself and many others, still here, who were then active in embryo Chicago. There are but few corrections that I could suggest, and, on the whole, since the destruction of historical material in the Great Fire of 1871, your publication will, in my opinion, be invaluable as a basis for the history of Chicago. You deserve well of the public, and I trust you may be well repaid for the great labor this publication must have caused you.
Respectfully Yours,
JULIAN S. RUMSEY. CHICAGO, February 25th, 1876.
ROBERT FERGUS: Dear Sir :- I have looked over your "Chicago' Directory for 1839," with much care, and it, gives me pleasure to say that, so far as my recollection serves me, it is quite accurate, and contains the names of all the persons who were then residents of this place. The Directory furnishes much useful information. I hope you may be compensated for your care, labor, and trouble.
Yours, etc., E. PECK.
CHICAGO, February 28th, 1876.
ROBERT FERGUS, ESQ. : Dear Sir :- Allow me to thank you for the pleasure I have derived from a perusal of your very interesting and valuable compilation, "The Chicago Directory of 1839"-the proof-sheets of which you were kind enough to send me. I have examined the work very attentively, and with a view to supply, if needful, any omissions or inaccuracies, but I am pleased to have to say that the thoroughness with which you have done your work leaves me really nothing to suggest.
As you, doubtless, well know, there were few residents of our city in those early days (I question if there was one) that was not per- sonally known to me, and my memory is still green as to all that pertains to that period; when I assure you, therefore, that I have failed to discover a single error either in names, events, or localities, you may safely assume (pardon my seeming presumption in saying so) that there are none.
Your publication will prove a valuable contribution to the literature of early Chicago, and a great help to the future historian. It has afforded me unmixed delight to be thus able to verify my own re- miniscences, and I am sure the public will heartily appreciate the service you have rendered them.
I remain, yours, for "auld lang syne,"
MAHLON D. OGDEN.
yours Sincerely Robert Fergus.

INTRODUCTION.
We have no apology to offer in presenting a Directory thirty- six years after its original date. The new settler will see no use for it, but the "Old Settler" can read and refer to it with pleasure. It is hoped that the parties named in this work will never feel ashamed of the days when they earned an honest living "by the sweat of their brow."
"Honor and shame from no condition rise ;
Act well your part -- there all the honor lies."
In September, 1839, the Common Council ordered the re- vision and printing, in pamphlet form, of the Laws and Ordin- ances of the City. The work was tendered to Messrs. Rudd & Childs, printers, but they, not being able to find sufficient funds, offered to transfer the contract to the subscriber, who accepted and fulfilled it. There were six blank pages at the end, and Mr. Childs suggested the filling of them up with the names of the business men of the City, which was immediately done; no canvass was necessary, and the names were never written-each name, as thought of, was forthwith set up by the subscriber, until the six pages were completed. It never was supposed that the names of all the business men of the City were included in this list, but the necessary pages were filled up, and the title ' given those names the "CHICAGO BUSINESS DIRECTORY." There were no numbers on any street (except Lake Street, ) at that time-the numbers now given are those of the present day.
On the completion of the Laws and Ordinances, fifty copies were delivered to the City, and the sum of $25.00 was ordered paid, January 27th, 1840. (See Common Council Proceedings, published in the Daily Chicago American, Jan. 2, and 29, and February 22, 1840. )*

INTRODUCTION.
About fifty copies were sold to the citizens at fifty cents per copy; the balance of the 500 were never used in public.
This "Chicago Business Directory" was reprinted last year in pamphlet form, and a fancy history given to it. The sub- scriber began to complete the Directory, commenced in 1839, some two years ago, and can now say that our "Old Settlers" pronounce it complete. Hlad there not been incorrect state- ments made, by interested parties, perhaps this DIRECTORY never would have been printed; like the original, this never was canvassed for, or even written.
The first Directory of this City was carelessly canvassed for by James Wellington Norris, attorney, in the latter part of 1843. It was printed and published by William Ellis and Robert Fergus. The publishers had no trouble about the division of the profits of that speculation. Norris compiled three or four similar works in the years following, and, perhaps, with greater profit to all concerned.
The present publisher has since had some experience in Di- rectories in this City. In 1854, 1855, and 1856 he again tried to place the Directory before the citizens in an improved form, but, unfortunately, his connections were not trustworthy, and, after considerable loss, he retired from the business.
In the compilation of this Directory, much assistance has been rendered by many of our old and intelligent citizens, for which the compiler returns sincere thanks.
This work has the sanction of Hon. Jolin Wentworth, Hon. Julian S. Rumsey, Hon. Buckner S. Morris, Hon. Mahlon D. Ogden, James II. Rees, Esq., Joseph II. Gray, Esq., James A. Marshall, Esq., J. K. Botsford, Esq., Asahel Pierce, Esq., Peter Graff, Esq., Bennett Bailey, Esq., P. R. Morgan, Esq., and many other intelligent citizens, whose recollections of the days of 1839 are still bright.
