Description
Excerpt from Evansville and Its Men of Mark
It is with the greatest solicitude that the Editor offers this volume to the public; as he fears he may not be able to do adequate justice to the subjects - the sketches of whom appear in this work. But since he has devoted much time and labor to the prosecution of this enterprise, he presents it to the citizens, as the best he was able, under the circumstances, to compile, trusting that a general allowance will be made for all its blemishes and imperfections.
The History contains several sketches of parties, who, not residing in Evansville, live in this section of the State, and whose interest in the Crescent City has been such as to materially advance it as an educational and business center.
Our thanks are tendered to the old citizens of Evansville and Southern Indiana, for much valuable information; and we trust that future generations will not forget the men, to whom Evansville is indebted for its rapid rise from a frontier settlement to a prosperous and wealthy city.
