Book Description

Excerpt from A History of Republic County, Kansas In collecting the facts here presented I have drawn largely from my own observations extending over a period of thirty years' residence in the county, but am much in debted and hereby acknowledge my obligations to many of the hardy pioneers and first settlers of the county for early incident-s, recollections and other valuable information which could be obtained in no other manner, and especially to D. Y. Wilson, County Clerk, for his uniform kindness and courtesy in allowing me access at all times to the records of his office; also to J. C. Humphrey, late editor and proprietor of the Telescope, for valuable information of historic interest obtained from the old files of the paper, which I have at all times been privileged to consult.
