CARRIAGE and WAGON
FACTORY,
A part of which is represented by the engraving on the first page of this book, is located in the City of
South Bend, Indiana,
Eighty-five miles east of Chicago, on the M. S. & N. I. R. R. It was established in 1852 and now ranks second to none in the West.
INDIANA TIMBER
Is noted for its excellence, and the fact that our factory is located in the best timbered section of the State, is a guaranty that our wagons are made of the best TIMBER. Our wagons are known as the
CELEBRATED STUDEBAKER WAGON,
And our shop is the only one in the country where the
SLOPE SHOULDER SPOKE
is used; we will guarantee the wheels on our 3} Thimble Skein Wagons to carry over FORTY HUNDRED.
Carriages and Buggies.
Attention is called to the fact that we use SARVEN'S PATENT BUGGY WHEELS, which are far superior to any known to the trade. Also, GRANT'S SHIFTING RAIL, by which a buggy top can be almost instantly removed, either for convenience, er in case of accident. We keep on hand every style of Carriage and Buggy, all sizes of FARM WAGONS, also a variety of SPRING WAGONS for one or two horses.

PREFACE.
WE have the satisfaction of presenting to the public the first History and Directory of Doniphan County, Kansas.
In offering this work to the public we feel no small degree of solicitude lest it should not meet the expectations of our patrons, who have waited so patiently for its compilation. We have the consciousness of having labored faithfully to make it as correct as possible. .
This work has been accomplished with no ordinary degree of labor, patience, and expense, and under many difficulties. In such a comparatively young county, where the people are alive to all kinds of shifting enterprises and otherwise very unsettled, and where the facilities throughont are so limited from which to obtain correct information, and the many changes constantly taking place, we can scarcely be charged with ego- tism in saying we have obtained and embodied in the present volume a vast amount of valuable information, which, upon careful perusal. will be found not only interesting but of great utility to the business community, the emigrant, and traveler.
We, therefore, deem it unnecessary for an apology for any omissions or inaccuracies that may have occurred ; but confi- dently launch our work upon the stream of public favor, relying upon the charity of a generons public to overlook what might be charged as faults-regardless of those self-appointed critics who make it their business to pick out all the little errors and magnify their importance.
We endeavor to give a History of our State. and also the rise and progress of our county, in as brief a way as possible, holding forth our advantages and facilities. and we hope that
PREFACE.
every person who has any interest in our county will take the trouble to peruse it.
OUR CITIZENS' DIRECTORY
is so arranged as to give a pretty good knowledge of the two classes of citizens-the transient and the permanent. The word renter is annexed to every name (especially farmers) who do not own the property upon which they reside, thus pointing out the transient community.
This portion of the work will be found very useful to every citizen or person seeking certain localities of our county : by re- ferring to the Directory, a person can ride direct to any citizen's house withont the delay of stopping to make inquiries, &c.
OUR BUSINESS DIRECTORY will give a better idea of the business of our county than any other method we could adopt. as each business is arranged under regular classified heads, and the name and post-office of every individual and firm doing business.
THE RECORD OF SOLDIERS will be very interesting for refer- ence, especially to those who participated in the late war.
THE LEGAL FORMS and TABLES will be found very valuable to the citizens generally.
We have endeavored to embody in this volume all that will make it of interest and importance to our citizens. and sincerely hope that it may meet their approval.
To the press generally. to our patrons. and the numerous friends who have aided us in the collection of the material for our work, we feel deeply indebted. and trust, in onr future efforts, to return their kind favors and renew our obligations.
Respectfully. S .. V. & Co.

HISTORY AND DIRECTORY
OF
DONIPHAN COUNTY, KANSAS ..
INAUGURAL ADDRESS OF ABRAHAM LINCOLN upon the occasion of his second inauguration for President of the United States, delivered at Washington, on the 4th day of March, 1865-one month and ten days before his assassination :
FELLOW CITIZENS .- At this second appearing to take the oath of the Presidential Office, there is less occasion for an extended address than there was at the first.
Then a statement, somewhat in detail, of a course to be pursued seemed very fitting and proper. Now, at the expiration of four years, during which public declarations have been constantly called forth on every point and phase of the great contest which still absorbs the attention and engrosses the energies of the uation, little that is new could be presented.
The progress of our arms, upon which all else chiefly depends, is as well known to the public as to myself, and it is, I trust, reasonably satis- factory and encouraging to all. With high hope for the future, no predictions with regard to it are ventured.
On the occasion corresponding to this, four years ago, all thoughts were anxiously directed to an impending Civil War. All dreaded it, all sought to avoid it.
While the inaugural address was being delivered from this place, devoted altogether to saving the Union without war, insurgent agents were in the city seeking to destroy it without war-seeking to dissolve the Union and divide the effects by negotiation. Both parties deprecated war, but one of them would make war rather than let the nation survive and the other would accept war rather than let it perish, and the war came.
One-eighth of the whole population were colored slaves, not dis-

HISTORY AND DIRECTORY OF
tributed generally over the Union, but located in the Southern part of it. These slaves constituted a peculiar and powerful interest. All knew that this interest was somehow the cause of the war. To strengthen, perpetuate, and extend this interest was the object for which these insur- gents would rend the Union even by war, while the Government claimed no right to do more than restrict the territorial enlargement of it.
Neither party expected for the war the magnitude or the duration which it has already attained. Neither anticipated that the cause of the conflict might cease with, or even before, the conflict itself should cease. Each looked for an easier triumph and a result less fundamental and astounding.
Both read the same Bible and pray to the same God, and each invokes his aid against the other. It may seem strange that any men should dare to ask a just God's assistance in wringing their bread from the sweat of other men's fares; but let us judge not lest we be judged. The prayers of both could not be answered. That of neither has been answered fully. The Almighty has his own purposes. "Woe unto the world because of offences, for it must needs be that offences come ; but woe to that man by whom the offence cometh." If we shall suppose that American slavery is one of these offences, which, in the Providence of God, must needs come, but which, having continued through the appointed time, he now wills to remove, and that he gives to both North and South this terrible war as the woe due to those by whom the offence came,-shall we discern therein any departure from those divine attributes which the believers in a living God always aseribe to him? Fondly do we hope, fervently do we pray, that this mighty scourge of war may soon pass away. Y'et God wills that it continue until all the wealth piled by the bondman's two hundred and fifty years of unrequited toil shall be sunk and until every drop of blood drawn with the lash shall be paid with another drawn with the sword. As was said three thousand years ago, so still it must be said, "The judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether."
With malice toward none, with charity to all, with firmness in the right, as God gives us to see right, let us strive on to finish the work we are in, to bind up the nation's wounds, to care for him who shall have borne the battle, and for his widow and his orphans, to do all which may achieve and cherish a just and lasting peace among ourselves and with all nations.
