EARLY HISTORY OF FRONTIER COUNTY NEBRASKA

EARLY HISTORY AND REMINISCENCE
OF
FRONTIER COUNTY
NEBRASKA

PREFACE

"Early History and Reminiscence of Frontier County, Neb." was published in the Eagle by N. H. Bogue in 1894 and again in the Eagle-Reporter in 1911 by W. H. Barton.

As only a few of the original copies were printed in booklet form and it is now, almost impossible to obtain one, I thought it would be a service, and might, as it has to me, a source of inspiration to old settlers and others interested in the tales of the pioneers, so with the permission of the Editor of the Eagle-Reporter I decided to have copies published.

BOYD PERKIN.

FOREWORD

With appreciation of courtesy from the editor of Studio News Magazine, in which "Mammoth" and other poems included in this book were first published.

The author of "Mammoth and Other Poems," Boyd Perkin, presents his first work in book form. We find his poems and writings of excellent type, that will be beneficial to readers. He has written Stories, Poetry and Songs. His latest songs: "On Irish Linen" whose words were written with the help of the Editor of Studio News and melody by Jimmy Crane has been published and with "When Autumn Turns The Leaves to Gold and Crimson" which was written in collaboration with Annie Peltokangas, who also composed the music has been broadcast over K.O.D.Y.

"Mammoth And Other Poems" are written thoughtfully and sincerely.

We highly recommend this book in the literary field. May it help you along life's pathway.

LETA S. BENDER,
Editor Studio News,
Friend, Nebr.
