Excerpt from Historic Morgan and Classic Jacksonville

One fact will, I hope, be evident, viz., that there is nothing Of a money-making or advertising character to the editing or publishing Of the book. Of course many enter prises and individuals have been complimented, but no pecuniary consideration has biased a single line or sentence. Even the illustrations of business houses were insert ed gratuitously, that there might be no charge Of paid puﬂ? Connected with the book. I am well aware, too, there must have been some omissions and possible misstatements, as it is absolutely impossible to furnish a perfect history of long past times with meager resources at command. My original plan, of strict chronological order from first to last, had to be abandoned, on account of the late securing of material bearing upon early times.

Due acknowledgement is made elsewhere Of my indebtedness to various persons and papers for valuable aid.

It will be Observed that I have made no attempt to follow up the history of the towns of the county, except Jacksonville, since the date Of the incorporation Of that, place. I have not had access to the necessary information.

My task is done. The torch shall be extinguished which has lit The midnight lamp; and what is writ ls writ.

Would it were worthier l jacksonville, March 31, 1885. The compiler.
