Excerpt from Letters, 1853 1868 Beginning when the writer was a youth of seventeen years, and maintained during the sub sequent eventful years preceding, during, and following the great Civil War, these letters form an important part of the biography of one who became one of Colorado's pioneers, a leader and potent force in her settlement; in the conception, organization and construction of her great Railway System, and consequently in the development and growth of her material resources; one whose name must thus always be prominently associated with the history of the State, and honored as among her most eminent citizens and benefactors.
