Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Evansville and Vanderburgh County, Indiana Now, the information caught up and recorded here for present and future generations is not the work of an hour, but, in a sense, ofa life time. As the work progressed the writer was more and more im pressed with its significance and magnitude. It grew on his hands. He has not followed the Old stereotyped formula of delivering himself of local affairs and events, but has, like a pioneer, blazed out a way of his own. It is his fond hope that some good may be done in this work, some help be extended to some one in some way.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the City of Evansville and Vanderburg County, Indiana, Vol. 2 Mr. Orr possessed a genius for organization and his initiative spirit and untiring energy found scope in the establishment and conduct of busi ness interests which have been of the utmost benefit to Evansville. As the years passed? The trade relations of his two interests reached out over a broad field and brought back rich returns. Moreover, the imprint of Mr. Orr's individuality is found on nearly all of the great enterprises of the city. He was one of the incorporators of the Evansville Terre Haute Railroad, early recognizing the necessity and value for rapid transporta tion as a factor in business activity. 'moreover, his name became a promi nent and honored one in banking circles. He was one of the promoters of the Evansville branch of the Bank of the State of Indiana, was one of the original directors of the Evansville National Bank, presiding as its chief executive officer until his death. Both Mr. And Mrs. Orr passed away in 1882, the former on the 8th of February and the latter on the 9th of October. In their family were three children but only one is now living: James L. Orr, who is his father's successor in business and one of the most prominent residents of Evans ville. The parents held membership in the Walnut Street Presbyterian church and following their death one of the appropriate memorials erected by their children to commemorate their lives and work was the beautiful parsonage of the church in which they worshipped. For a quarter of a cen tury Mr. Orr served as one of the elders of the church and not only gave liberally to its support but also labored with hand and heart for its spiritual and temporal welfare. It was largely through his instrumentality that the church indebtedness was lifted about two weeks before his death. For many years he was a trustee of Wabash College, to which he left a bequest in aid of the library. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the City of Evansville and Vanderburg County, Indiana, Vol. 1 Of course for quail and rabbits the old square trap made out of hickory splints, fastened together with bark and set with a nubbin of corn on a figure four, was used. The bear trap was a huge affair - an enormous log, raised up and set so that it could fall only in a certain place, and to get to the bait the bear must step exactly into position. In setting these, the skill of the hunter was again called into play. The world wagged then just as it does now. Some hunters were very lucky because they used their brains and were not afraid of toil and exposure to all kinds of weather, and their traps were set and watched as they should be. Others were unlucky simply because they liked a big fireplace too well. There were hardy pioneers in those days and some less hardy just as one finds them today in the pioneers of industry. In every work regarding the settlement of southern Indiana, much space is given to Indian murders and hunting. But it is a fact that after going carefully over all the old stories I cannot find an account of a single Indian atrocity that occurred at or near Evansville. All the old works are full of them, but the nearest crimes of which any record is given were near Vincennes, or Rockport (only one happening there) or along the Wa bash in White County. But of hunting tales there is a great store. I doubt if there are today in Evansville twenty men who understand how to pick up a sign or still hunt, for that is the way our ancestors hunted. It was only after the introduction of the long eared Virginia and North and South Carolina hounds that driving deer began. As I state elsewhere, cur dogs were the only kind known here in the early days. Many of the younger generation, however, love to read old hunting stories and this will reach the eyes of many who will never see a wild deer or wild turkey. Hounding deer and driving deer are synonymous. The hunter goes out with his hounds securely tied until he reaches a well known feeding place or a deer crossing, i. E., a place where they cross little lakes or creeks. The hounds are then released and the hunter stands quietly and listens. When they strike a trail that is fresh, they at once give tongue, i. E., begin to bark and follow it rapidly. The hunter listens till he gets the general direction and then hurries to some favorite crossing spot and waits for the deer to come running past him. All he has to do is to allow for the speed of the deer and kill it, for it usually passes within thirty yards of him.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Vanderburgh County, Indiana: From the Earliest Times to the Present, With Biographical Sketches, Reminiscences, Etc In the chapter on military matters the Adjutant General's report for the state has been abundantly quoted as the best authority attainable on such subjects, but as that is known to contain many errors, there can be no doubt that some of them have found their way into this work. Perhaps the most notable feature of the book is the portion which contains biograph ical sketches of leading citizens, both dead and living. The practice of publishing biog raphies of living men has been condemned by some, but to question it seems like preferring doubtful information and the uncertainties of memory to positive personal knowledge. The neglect of personal and family history in the United States has become a matter of public comment. A recent call for a meeting at Indianapolis of descendants of Revolutionary sires met not a single response. This alone is a significant witness that family genealogy has been neglected, and that few people can trace their ancestry more than two genera tions. If biographies of living men were more frequently published, true modesty would not exceed the bounds of truth, and the eulogistic exaggerations that so often find apology in death, would be avoided. Should an excessive self - applause unduly proclaim its own achievements it will be best judged by a contemporaneous public. Grateful acknowledgments are due the county and city officers, the newspaper men, he officers of the Historical Society, and many citizens, for valuable assistance.
