PREFACE.

f Cf^f/N PRESENTING our Illustrated Historical Atlas of Indiana to

subscribers, we deem a few prefatory words necessary. The work has been in progress for more than a year past, and although it has been a period of comparative financial depression, reducing our subscription list considerably below what we might have expected under more favorable circumstances, yet we have spared neither pains nor expense to fulfill our engagement with our patrons and make the work as com- plete as possible. We have acted upon the principle that justice to those who have subscribed be they few or many requires that the work should be as well done us if it was patronized by every citizen of the State.

We do not claim that our Atlas is entirely free from errors; such a result could nol bo attained by the* utmost care and foresight of ordinary mortals. In the preparation of A work so voluminous, a great variety of details have had to be supervised. Each department has been under the charge of a competent superin- tendent, who has given to his respective branch of the work bis constant and undivided attention.

M will bo noticed lhat some portions of the State are not equally represented with others in the View, Biographical and Portrait Departments. This inequal- ity has boon unavoidable; for, in these departments, the representation depended

ti] the consent and co-operation of subscribers. In many cases, in several

localities of the Stale, where parties have been solicited, the needed consent and co-operation were refused our agents; and although the publishers would have been glad I" have represented every portion of the Slate equally in ail the departments of the work, yet it has been impracticable for the reason above stated.

M will bo seen, however, that in the Map and Historical Departments, which

depended al ! upon the decision of the publishers, the Atlas is equally full and

complete in all parts of the Slate.

Sunt.' of the County Histories are indeed longer than others, as the counties are larger and older, contain larger towns and cities, and have been the scenes of

more important and interesting events. While fully recognizing this important dif- ference, our historians have sought to write up each county with equal fidelity to the facts and information within their reach.

We have had one principal historian, noted for his care and thoroughness as a writer, who has had under his charge a number of assistants, who have personally visited every county in the State except three or four, which have been written up by competent local writers. These associates have taken every pains to verify the histories procured, by getting information from the best informed old settlers, and, in most instances, submitting the matter written for criticism and revision. The county records and reports of the Geological Survey have also greatly aided Iheni. lint, where local authorities are often conflicting, and well informed old settlers disagree among themselves as to facts and dates, it is not at all unlikely that errors and statements which will give rise to controversy have crept into our County Histories, in spite of all onr care and pains. Should such be found, we ask the people not to condemn our histories on that account, considering the uncertain and often contradictory character of local information, but to remember the more important fact that we have furnished them a set of County Histories, which, notwithstanding a few slight errors, are, upon the whole, the best and most voluminous of any that have ever been published in the State

We take this occasion to present our thanks to all our numerous subscribers throughout the State for their liberal patronage and encouragement in the publica- tion of a work which has tasked our energies and resources to complete, and which we trust they may End satisfactory. In this confident belief we submit it to the enlightened judgment of those for whose benefit it has-been prepared, believing that it will be received as the most valuable and complete compendium of State information, in all the various departments represented, that has yet been published in Indiana.
