Excerpt from Get a Home in Arkansas Was there ever a human heart which did not look fondly back to some hallowed spot which it called home, or looked forward with longing and anticipation to the time when a new and ideal home would be secured and occupied? In every living creature, from the lowest form of animal life up to the most refined and intelligent classes of the human race, the home instinct is, above all other influences, the primary, controlling force which binds the individual to some certain place - that place called and loved as home.

Excerpt from Down in Arkansas Each claimed credit for the road's existence. It was pretty hard to tell, just then, who did own it and it has been somewhat of a conundrum ever since. There was no one present to speak for the Dutch bond holders, though they had a sympathetic listener, whose abused mind wandered away to the foggy shores of Holland, and was lost in visions of bottles and bar rels and bung-holes.

Excerpt from An Arkansas Planter That was the Arkansas planter yearsago, be fore the great sentimental storm swept down upon him, before an evening's tea-table talk in Massachusetts became a tornado of iron in Vir ginia. When ragged and heart-sore he re turned from the army, from as brave a fight as man ever engaged in, he sat down to dream over his vanished greatness. But his dream was short. He went to work, not to te-establish his former condition of ease - for that hope was be yond him - but to make a living for his family.

Excerpt from Arkansas, the Home for Immigrants: A Sketch of Her Resources; Railroads, Schools, Mines, Capital, and Chief Towns, Together With Much General Information Relating to the State, for the Benefit of Immigrants and Her Own People De Soto and his followers were the earliest white men who trod Arkansas soil, of which history has preserved any record. Setting sail from Havana with an army of six hundred men, in May, 1539, in due time he reached Tampa Bay, on the western coast of Florida. Leaving his Ships he marched northward and then westward, through a trackless wilderness, engaging in frequent combats with hostile Indians. After a two years march, during which time his little army had nearly wasted away, De Soto reached the Mississippi river, near the point which now forms the southern boundry of Tennessee. This was in April, 1541. De Soto crossed the Mississippi and penetrated as far westward as the mountain region of Arkansas. He then marched southward, and spent the winter of 1541 on the banks of the Ouachita river.' In the following spring he descended to thejunction Of the Red and Mississippi rivers; where he was seized with a malignant fever by which he died. He was buried by his men at the hour of midnight, in the mighty river he discovered. We find no record of any further explorations, until the 17th of May.

Excerpt from Early Days in Arkansas: Being for the Most Part the Personal Recollections of an Old Settler On this, the eightieth anniversary of my birth, I finish a much cherished but long deferred task of preparing for publication my personal recollections of Early Days in Arkansas. Sitting in the impenetrable gloom of total blind ness, the mind's eye seems to have been strength ened by the loss of natural Vision, and the scenes and events of over half a century ago appear but as the happenings of yesterday. But few persons are now living who were here when I first came to Arkansas, sixty-two years ago. It cannot possibly be long ere the last link in the chain connecting the present with the past will have been broken, and none left to tell the tale of those ancient days.

Excerpt from History of Scott County, Arkansas In the following pages I have endeavored to pre sent the out-standing facts of the history of Scott County. I have been impelled to do this by several reasons. First, I confess to a measurable sentiment in the matter. The county is my home, and the men and women who made this history are my homefolk. Their history is, so to speak, my own, and, therefore, a very absorbing study to me. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Northeast Arkansas, Vol. 9: World's Fair Industrial Series No; 9, 2nd Edition In the early days of the old world, away back in the dim days of history's dawn, humanity spread in all directions from the cradle of the race, by means of a series of migratory waves. In those ages the impulses and habits of man were savage and cruel, "might made right," and the weak had no valid claim upon the consideration of the strong. When the old home became too small to accommodate the people of a nation, swarming occurred, as a result of some internal influence, and a portion of the inhabitants, often numbering many thousands, detached themselves in a body, and taking their families and movable possessions with them, poured out into the wilderness or territory of neighboring tribes, slaying or driving out the people, and confiscating their property and lands. Violence and conquest accompanied each migratory movement, national wealth was usually accumulated by wholesale murder, pillage and robbery, and the new home was wrested by force from the former owner. These were the attributes and the practices of the ancient home-seeker. Times and customs have changed, and in this particular our race is infinitely the gainer. Now the people of the new or sparsely settled country advertise for and invite the conquest, and when the wave of immigration appears, the "guest chamber is made ready and the feast spread."
