Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Tales of an Old "Border Town" And Along the Kankakee: A Collection of Historical Facts and Intimate Personal Sketches of the Days of the Pioneers in Momence, Illinois, and the Hunting Grounds of the Kankakeee Marsh and "Bogus Island"
Mr. Fred Nichols, of Momence, has been indefatigable in his efforts to put the writer in the way of obtaining that data of old days in and about Momence which was most valuable and worth while. With his machine and with Clarence Nichols at the wheel, every nook and corner of the old Beaver Lake Basin has been visited, turned wrong-side out and thoroughly scrutinized. Mr. Nichols has been a host in himself.
