Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Christian County, Illinois: With Illustrations, Descriptive of Its Scenery, and Biographical Sketches of Some of Its Prominent Men and Pioneers Robert De La Salle, whose name is more closely connected with the explorations of the Mississippi than that of any other, was the next to descend the river in the year 1632. Formal posses sion was taken of the great river and all the countries bordering upon it or its tributaries in the name of the King. La Salle and his party now retraced their steps towards the north. They met with no serious trouble until they reached the Chickasaw Bluffs, where they had erected a fort on their down ward voyage, and named it Prudhomme. Here La Salle was taken violently sick. Unable to proceed, he sent forward Tonti to communicate with Count Frontenac. La Salle himself reached the mouth of the St. Joseph the latter part of September. From that point he sent Father Zenobe with his dispatches to represent him at court, while he turned his attention to the fur trade and to the project of completing a fort, which he named St. Louis, Upon the Illinois River. The precise location of this work is not known. It was said to be upon a rocky bluff two hundred and fifty feet high, and only accessible upon one side. There are no bluffs of such a height on the Illinois River answering the de scription. It may have been on the rocky bluff above La Salle, where the rocks are perhaps one hundred feet in height.

This company has specialized for many years in historical publications. Its field of operations covers most Of the important counties of Illinois and its publications are recognized for their historical value. The first volume of the Historical Encyclopedia was written by Hon. Newton Bateman, at one time superintendent of public instruction of Illinois and a personal friend of Abraham Lincoln; and Paul Selby, who was the last survivor of that group of Illinois editors who held the historic conference in Decatur February 22, 1856, which led to a call for the first Republican Con vention in Illinois. The historical part of the second volume covering the history of Christian County was prepared by the undersigned who has aimed at his torical accuracy rather than literary effect. The material has been gleaned from Old settlers, previous histories and newspaper files. The writer has, because of other duties and responsibilities, been unable to devote all of his time for the past two years to this important work, yet it is believed that there are no serious omissions, while perfection cannot be claimed for the work of any man. With a solemn sense of his duty and privilege, he has striven to give the best people on earth a contribution which he hopes may prove worthy. Should mistakes be' found by the careful reader, they may be attributed to the frailties of human nature and not to purpose or intent. He is grateful to the many persons whose help and interest.
