Index To History Of Hancock County Illinois PDF Download

Excerpt from History of Hancock County, Illinois: Together With an Outline History of the State, and a Digest of State Laws; Illustrated The undersigned has about the same apology for writing this book, which he styles a History of Hancock County. There is this difference, however, that instead of having his method by the end, he found it to have neither end nor middle; and that though the work came to the bigness that you see, he eould have found enough material to have made a book of twice its size. From the beginning it has been a work from which he has expected more pleasure than profit; and if he has succeeded in making it credita ble as a contribution to the great volume of Illinois history, he is amply satisfied.
