In conformity with this idea the Poktrait and of this county has been prepared. Instead of going to musty records, andtaking therefrom dry statistical matter that can be appreciated by bnt few, ourcorps of writers have gone to the people, the men and women who have, by theirenteii)rise and industry, brongiit the county to a rank second to none among thosecomprising this great and noble .State, and from their lips have the story of their lifestruggles. No more interesting or instructive matter could be presented to an intelli-gent i)ul)lie. In this volume will be found a record of many whose lives are worthy thein)itation of coming generations. It tells how some, commencing life in poverty, byindustry and economy have accumulated wealth.
