Lyman's History of Old Walla Walla County, embracing Walla
Walla, Columbia, Garfield, and Asotin Counties
The opening of a new century is a fitting time to cast a
backward glance in our local history, reconstruct to the eye of
the present the interesting and heroic events of the past, and by
comparison between past and present forecast something of the
future.
Old Oregon Territory, of which this county and this state were
once parts, with its isolation, its pathos, its hospitality, has
passed away. It had a strange history. It was the ignis
fatuus of successive generations of explorers, luring them on
with that indescribal)le fascination which seems always to have
drawn men to the ever-receding circle of the "Westmost West," and
yet for years and years veiling itself in the mists of
uncertainty and misapprehension.
