1879-1885This little booklet is just 6 inches by 7.5 inches, but holds a unique glimpse into the lives of some of the farmers of Buffalo County. Part of the Mardos Memorial Library, the hand-written journal contains the constitution and by-laws and the minutes of the meetings of an organization of neighbors committed to helping each other to prevent the loss of their horses and mules.
