Author Description

Excerpt from The Life and Public Services of Dr. Lewis F. Linn: For Ten Years a Senator of the United States From the State of Missouri The present volume has been prepared in obedience to what seemed to the writer to be a call from those, the pioneers of the great valley of the Mississippi and their descendants, between whom and Doctor 'linn there was, during his lifetime, a long subsisting association, a mutual esteem and interchange of good offices, which from the beginning became more and more intimate and cordial, until the ties which thus bound them to gether were severed by the hand of death.
