PREFACE.
Frankfort, for partial files of the Louisville Daily Journal and Louisville Daily Demo- crat ; to the Young Men's Mercantile Library, of Cincinnati, for the examination of files of Cincinnati newspapers ; and to sundry persons for odd numbers or fragments of early newspapers, some of them with valuable passages or articles.
To John G. Shea, LL.D., of New York, Win. M. Darlington, of Pittsburgh, and Robert Clarke, of Cincinnati, three of the most learned men in general Western his- tory, the Author is indebted for dates and collations, or corrections, of some of the earliest published tours and explorations along the Ohio river ; and to Mrs. Wm. C. Rives, of Albemarle co., Va., and Mrs. L. P. Lewis, of Sweet Springs, Va., for similar information about tours and incidents in Kentucky.
From the venerable Christopher Columbus Graham, M.D., of Louisville, formerly of the Harrodsburg Springs, the Author received valuable assistance in correcting the locality of some of the stations, and some of the incidents of pioneer life in central Kentucky ; be also furnished much additional matter which it was imprao- ticable to use. Dr. G., although born Oct. 10, 1787, and now in his 87th year, is the most indefatigable man in the state, in everything he undertakes-a perfect marvel of energy and endurance-and bids fair to continue, for twenty years longer, the most prominent living link between ancient and modern Kentucky, or Kentucky before she became a state and Kentucky as a state nearly a hundred years old. [For a handsome portrait of Dr. Graham, and a full and interesting account of his life and remark- able adventures, in detail, see Allen's History of Kentucky, pages 299 to 336.]
To his own family-his wife, and three elder children, Mrs. Annie M. Craig, Miss Mary Ellen Collins, and Lewis Collins, Jr .- and to his young friend and neighbor, Wm. G. Lord, the Author is indebted for important and patient help in the minutiæ of his labors, in systematizing and arranging the great amount of material, and in preparing the index of the work.
