Excerpt from Forty Years of Nebraska, at Home and in CongressAfter a continuous residence of thirty-three years in Nemaha County, four of which were with the celebrated First Nebraska Regiment, and eight in the United States Senate, having suffered a sudden loss of health, I found a very pleasant pastime and most genial employment in recalling the early days of Nebraska pioneer ing.My first impulse was to utter Opinions of men and measures. But remembering how liable we all are to make mistakes, and being fearful of doing injustice, by omission or prejudice, to some of my associates, I determined, as far as possible, to become only the re corder of their public works and compiler of their sentiments and oratorical gems.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
