Description
Excerpt from Past and Present of Marshall and Putnam Counties, Illinois
The career of Christopher Columbus, who gave to mankind a new world, is interesting read ing even at the present day; what he accomplished by his persistence, under adverse circumstances, and how he finally saw the fruition of his hopes and his theories and deductions verified should be an incentive and inspiration to any boy or young man to never give up. We can here give only the slightest sketch of Columbus' life, but we think a short history may not be out of place.
