We have aimed to make this volume so reliable and complete that it will take rank at once as a standard cyclopedia of John son county history and interests, alike in the family, the private office, the county offices, or the township iboard meetings. And trusting that this high aim has been reasonably well achieved, we herewith submit our volume to the judgment and the service of its patrons.
