Memorial and biographical record and illustrated compendium of biography ..of ..citizens of Columbia . a lesson that should not be lost upon those who follow after. Coming generations will appreciate this volume and preserve it as a sacred treas-ure, from the fact that it contains so much that would never find its way into pub-lic records, and which would otherwise be inaccessible and lost forever.
