of Grant township.
Rolfe, Iowa, July 23, 1904.
Rev. R. E. Flickinger, My Dear Sir:
Having had an opportunity to thoroughly examine the advance sheets of
the Pioneer History of Pocahontas County, and having followed with much
interest the serial as published in the Fonda Times, I wish to say that I
had it a meritorious work. Its fullness, accuracy, freedom from prejudice,
literary style and the excellent character of the portrait work will make it a
volume of mnch worth to Pocahontas county people. It seems to cover, in a
happy manner, everything desirable in a work of this kind, and places on
record for the future an interesting and true story of our people, our past and
present, our material, educational and religious growth to the present time.
Your labor, research and perseverance, I trust, will be correspondingly
appreciated by our people. For one I want to thank you very much for
having undertaken and so excellently carried the work through. Personally
I feel under obligation to you for the conscientious and thorough work you
I shall
