Book Description
Excerpt from History of Allen County, Ohio: Containing a History of the County, Its Townships, Towns, Villages, Schools, Churches, Industries, Etc.; Portraits of Early Settlers and Prominent Men; Biographies; History of the Northwest Territory; History of Ohio In local history is found the power to accomplish all this. Steel may wear away, rust efi'ace the inscription on iron, wood decay, and even the marble rock break to pieces, but the page of history, once printed, is car ried down the river of time unchanging and unchangeable. How swiftly ans those men and women, who entered the wilderness in their youth, pass. Ing away! The great majority, even now, are in the homes of the silent, and few remain who can give all the details of the earliest settlement. Fortunately, their recollections are now preserved. A few more years and the whole unwritten history of Allen County should remain unwritten - lost for ever. Another few years and the brilliant story of progress would have to be based on fragmentary relations - disconnected, unsatisfactory, aggravat ing. Local history comes forward to rescue ten thousand facts and names from oblivion, and place them where the historian of the future may grasp the whole Union and give to each of its parts a complete sketch. Not alone should the history of pioneer times be treated fully and impartially, but also the present. The whole fabric of society, -the home, school, church, governmental and benevolent organizations, and all these industries and associations which bind men's interests together - should be traced down from the humble beginnings of 1831 to our own days, making a record complete and impartial for the future. This age of progress Is reviewed and compared with the quiet, unostentatious long ago. Commer cial, military and political enterprises are detailed, nothing which might be thought worthy of mention is omitted, and thus every name and deed are entwined with the history of the country.
