The manuscript was then read to the committees, and time given to make such corrections as they deemed necessary, and each member was urged to exercise care, and not be backward in making such corrections or such suggestions as might be deemed necessary to insure correctness and add to the value of the work. Our thanks are certainly due to these men, a number of whom spent much time, with no thought of reward than that received in the consciousness of a duty well performed. Among others specially entitled to our thanks are: Henry Casson, Jr.,Capt. D. W. C. Wilson, Judge W. F. Terhune, Capt. R. S. McMichael, John R. Casson, James E. Newell,N. C. Nichols, Hon. CM. Butt, P. J. Layne, Col. Earl M, Rogers, Plon, H, P. Proctor, Hon. O. B. Wyman, Rev. John Whitworth, William Haughton and others. Every county officer, and every deputy employed in the various offices showed a perfect willingness and an earnest desire to aid us in obtaining inf or mation. The press of the county is also entitled to our special gratitude. Without an exception, we have received the kindest treatment from each newspaper, their files being placed at our disposal, and from which we obtained much of the information contained in this volume In conclusion, we will say that our work is done; the History of Yernon County is placed in your hands. We trust that you will be pleased with it. Yours Truly, Union Publishing Company.
