Excerpt from PublicationMuch that relates to early Illinois is in manuscript at Paris and London. Some of the story is in print. All such matter will keep for use as wanted. A more urgent need is to find and connect the leading events with the places where they occurred, before the elements or the acts of later comers have de stroyed the proofs of their identity.So of mounds, of the stone and shell works of a prehistoric age. There are more of them, they are spread over a wider field in Illinois than the like re mains in any other state of the union. And in the first report of the trustees of the State Historical Library to the Governor, your chairman here urged that these monuments of a perished race be duly surveyed and examined, and that the more noted ones be saved from further needless waste.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
