PREFACE.


The importance of preserving in concise form the traditions of the past has never been questioned, nor the usefulness of local history been disputed. Believ- ing that the county of McDonough afforded most excellent material for a good county history, the Continental History Company placed in the field a full corps of experienced historians, prepared to spare no time or money in compiling a com- plete and reliable work. The manuscript of this history has been submitted to the committee chosen by your own citizens for the purpose, who, after a critical exam- ination of them, have approved of our work. We feel confident that we here pre- sent our patrons with a work that is as correct as it is possible for humanity to make. That errors have crept in, and may be found, we do not doubt. Man is, at the best, but a fallible creature, but every statement herein published, is honestly believed in by the parties furnishing the information, by the historians, and by the committees of revision. All desire the truth, and nothing but the truth. They gave much time and labor to the work, and deserve the thanks of the citizens of the county for the faithful discharge of the trust reposed in them. Our thanks are due to the numerous friends who have so kindly assisted us in gathering up items and assisting in the compilation of this volume. We cannot name them all, for their name is legion, but we must not forget to mention James M. Campbell, Thomas- Fulkerson, Quintus Walker, Charles W. Dines, C. S. Churchill, Charles H. Whitaker, B. R. Hampton, T. H. B. Camp, W. H. Hainline, and the other county officials, members of the press and others throughout the county.


Nor must we forget to remember and thank the historians of the company who have labored so hard and faithfully for the good of all-James S. Walters, general historian; Charles W. Moseley, assistant historian; Maurice E. Power, W. M. Shumaker, James McFarland, C. M. Reynolds, Myron E. Lusk, J. M. Braddock, Charles H. Shaler, George A. Franklin, Karr McClintock, C. C. Chapman and Joseph H. Power, local historians; W. B. Wetherbee, of the portrait department; J. K. Magie, R. V. Mallory, Mrs. W. B. Wetherbee, Thomas Jewell and Miss Adele Walters, editors of the biographical department. All have tried to do their duty well, and please the company and our patrons.


In conclusion, we would say that our work is done; the History of McDon- ough County is before you. We cheerfully hope it will please you.


Yours Very Truly,


THE CONTINENTAL HISTORICAL COMPANY.


SPRINGFIELD, ILLINOIS, JUNE, 1885.
