Excerpt from Commemorative Biographical Record of Central Pennsylvania, Including the Counties of Centre, Clearfield, Jefferson and Clarion, Vol. 1: Containing Biographical Sketches of Prominent and Representative Citizens, and of Many of the Early Settled Families That the public is entitled to the privileges afforded by a work of this nature needs no assertion at our hands; for one of our greatest Americans has said that the history of any country resolves itself into the biographies of its stout, earnest and representative citi zens. This medium, then, serves more-than a single purpose; while it perpetuates biogra phy and family genealogy, it records history, much of which would be preserved in no other way.
