Book excerpt: Excerpt from The High Lights of Arkansas History There is in the history of the State of Arkansas no want of the sort of material which makes for a flavor of individuality. In the choice of things chosen for this narration of events - chosen and arranged to tell the story of the growth of enterprise and what not wrought in Arkansas in the space of nearly four centuries since the time of Desoto - the aim has been to choose those things which have made the history of Arkansas different which give it its flavor of interest quite its own. But last, and first also - first as the motive for playing up the high lights of the history of Arkansas like street lights, hung one at every street corner, that those who pass may see the way plainly - the story of Arkansas is told here step by step, one thing at a time and everything in the order of its doing, each as something done apart from the many other processes helping always to make the complex story of life and growth complete, so that any who should like such a work may have by him a handy manual of the really significant facts concerning the his tory of the State.

Excerpt: ... ern part of Pulaski County, the location being convenient to the main line of the Missouri Pacific Railroad. The purchase was made in 1919, though the institution was not opened until early in the year 1920. Oil Discovered In Arkansas (1920). Oil was discovered first in commercial quantities in Arkansas on April 10, 1920. The well, in which it was found, was drilled by S. Hunter, of Shreveport, Louisiana. Thus it was known as the "Hunter Discovery Well." Its exact location is described as "on the S E)4 of the N EX of Section 13, Twp. 15 S., Range 19 W." The town of Stephens, in Ouachita county, is situated near the well. Mr Hunter had been given leases on something like 20,000 acres in the vicinity of Stephens as an inducement to drill the well. While this particular well was never worked as a producer of oil in commercial quantities, enough was bailed from it to prove that the oil was there in paying quantities. Mr. Hunter, at all events, succeeded immediately in selling most of his acreage, including the well, to the Standard Oil Company for $800,000 in cash and a guarantee of $1,000,000. "from the sale of the first oil produced from the said leases." However, the Standard has never drilled another well on this acreage. The second oil well was drilled by the White Oil Corporation about eight miles southwest of El Dorado. It "came in" on December 23, 1920, with a daily flow of twenty-five barrels. But the Arkansas oil boom really had its beginning with the completion of the Mitchell & Busey well, which "came in" on January 10, 1921, with a daily production estimated at ten thousand barrels. Arkansas first appeared in the reports of the United States Geological Survey as an oil producing state in March, 1921, with 10,000 barrels as the...

This book was released on 2011-04-01 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arkansas's Old State House, arguably the most famous building in the state, was conceived during the territorial period and has served through statehood. A History of Arkansas's Old State House traces the history of the architecture and purposes of the remarkable building. The history begins with Gov. John Pope's ideas for a symbolic state house for Arkansas and continues through the construction years and an expansion in 1885. After years of deterioration, the building was abandoned by the state government, and the Old State House then became a medical school and office building. Kwas traces the subsequent fight for the building's preservation on to its use today as a popular museum of Arkansas history and culture. Brief biographies of secretaries of state, preservationists, caretakers, and others are included, and the book is generously illustrated with early and seldom-seen photographs, drawings, and memorabilia.
