                                 The eagerness with  which  our  volumes  are  sought  by kindred
                                 societies, and by persons  engaged  in  preparing  works  for the
                                 press on the  history,  geography and  statistics  of  the  West in
                                 general, and Wisconsin in particular,  affords  sufficient  proof  of
                                 their intrinsic worth  and  usefulness.  Their  real worth to our
                                 State, can never be estimated by mere dollars and cents.
