Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Davenport and Scott County, Iowa, Vol. 1 If there have been matters passed over without mention that are worthy extended notice in any history, let it be remembered that many things have hap pened in Scott county since Radisson yearned for the red souls Of its inhabitants, and that the comparative estimate of values is the sole pleasure of the writer of history and may be exercised by anybody who can find a publisher. Some expert who has given the matter thought says no man has a right to pen history unless he has something new to tell or a new way of telling the old. There is a third reason, - the same which impelled the Galena hotel keeper to charge the Prince de Joinville for playing one tune on his piano; the same reason which caused the assistant superintendent of a New Jersey lunch counter to ask of Bill Nye for that combination of sliced ham and some baker's absent mindedness known on the road as a boxing glove.

All the rocks which were then formed, whether by quiet deposition on ocean bottoms of by volcanic eruptions, are deeply buried and have never been revealed by the deepest searchings within the state.
