Excerpt from Historical Sketch of Cass County, Illinois: An Oration Delivered July 4, 1876, at Beardstown, Ills At that period the surface of Illinois was much lower, geologi cally considered, than it is at the present time. Since its creation, the thin crust of the earth has been undergoing slow mutations, breathing, as'it were, by centuries elevating and depressing in the lapse of ages under the influence of its mighty lungs of fire sinking slowly and imperceptibly beneath their former level continents and islands, and as gradually raising others above the waste of waters.
