Synopsis
Excerpt from The County of Highland: A History of Highland County, Ohio, From the Earliest Days, With Special Chapters on the Bench and Bar, Medical Profession Educational Development, Industry and Agriculture and Biographical Sketches
In the study of the history of our own county, we must remember certain peculiarities, which, though apparently of small account, are influential elements in material progress, and means toward the for mation of its character. The early traditions are potent factors in its progress. The memory of its heroes, and the battle fields where their laurels were won; of its seers of science, its prophets of cultured minds; of its poets who have won the people's heart; all the stirring recollections of the romantic past, which flush the cheek and brighten the eye; all these are substantial tributaries to a country's education, and aid in forming an estimate of its career and destiny.
