FOREWORD


It is commonplace to say that communities exhibit an individuality as definitely as a person may impress his friends with the possession of distinctive traits of character. No one of even moderate powers of observation, if he has had experience of other places than his own, has escaped sensing this fact. Of course, this must be so, for community individuality is but the composite of the characters and dispositions of the citizens whose lives and activities are thrown together, therein, and it is equally true that such civic spirit most be and is affected and built into a reality by factors in the same analogy as those which work to the character of a mature individual.


Environment, heredity and opportunity are the prime influences in molding the individual, and this may be said, also, of the making of that abstraction which we may call the soul of a community.


Natural advantages and disadvantages, including location and physical and political relations to the greater State of which it is a part ; history, aboriginal as well as civilized ; original racial contributions, all these afe f actors in the development and maintenance of a community spirit.


We note, perhaps with regret, that, in some parts of the country, men of alien lineage and habits of thought are taking over places hallowed with memories of early struggles in the development of .our American commonwealth, but it is not imaginable that these new stocks are unaffected, as they work into our cosmopolitan Americanism, by the hallowed memories which cling around Bunker Hill, Concord and Plymouth Rock or by the institutions, fruitage of long past struggles for liberty, which have united them to our shores and which give to them and theirs opportunities unknown in their ancestral homes. Wherever historical associations and other elevating factors contributed by nature, or developed through human effort, make up local atmosphere, we may look for beneficial results when residents of any extraction are brought under their influence.


Toledo is yet in a stage of development which we may consider as adolescence, and its community spirit is, perhaps, yet adolescent. But the fundamentals of prophecy seem to abide in the circumstances which are hers—a climate temperate, yet invigorating ; a vast contributory hinterland which nature has richly endowed: wonderfully beautiful scenic effects along its river and bay ; site and immediate surroundings the scenes of heroic struggles which contributed vitally to the upbuilding of a great empire ; by the hand of nature and'by man's effort, the cross-roads of a great commerce, where may meet to be used or exchanged vast quantities of nature's bounties or men's production ; .a population of great diversified antecedents but already welding into. 'a definite and creditable American composite--herein are foreshadowed the Toledo of the future.


The pages which follow are offered with the hope that they will serve beneficially in the making of Toledo into a great metropolis, with a soul uplifted and

fortified by many previous memories, with ambitions stimulated and supported in the use of many opportunities offered by nature and the art and industry of man—with an exalted community spirit toward whose final establishment as a characteristic of the city the trend is now observable.


With the unusual pressure of official duty imposed upon the undersigned since this task was begun—work which could not be laid aside—it is now felt to have been at least a personal mistake to have yielded to suggestions of friends that the editorship of this history should be undertaken. For the probable mistakes or omissions which may be found in the first volume responsibility must be borne by the editor, although, with the exception of three or four chapters, all of the writing and compilation has been done by the publisher's literary staff. Many mistakes or omissions of this historical volume, it is hoped, will be found corrected or supplied in the biographical volumes. Errors will undoubtedly be found in the whole work. It is believed, however, that they are not in sufficient quantity or of a quality to seriously affect its value as a contribution to the literature of Tole& and its environment. Several excellent histories have been published dealing altogether or in part with the affairs of the city and county. It is not intended that this work should fully traverse the field covered by them. The past is to be here covered only in the most general way, just far enough to bring it along as of the preparation .f or the present.


Toledo is expanding so rapidly that a contemporary picture of its business and social conditions becomes ancient history in a few months, before the mechanical execution of the account can be perfected. The work, then, must be considered as an attempt at a pen picture of the community in the spring of 1923, to serve as a bench mark from which to compute the progress of advancing decades.


In presenting this history to the citizens of Toledo and Lucas County, the publishers and editor are hopeful that there will be found therein but little to criticize and that errors will be received in a kindly spirit. Acknowledgments are due and are here tendered of obligations, in large measure, to city and county officials and to the attaches of the Toledo Public Library and to citizens who have responded to invitations with much valuable information.
