"The past thirty years, beginning with the reorganization of the
Indiana Historical Society in 1886, constitute an epoch in historical
work in Indiana. In part this has been only a local feature of the
general awakening of interest in American history, due primarily to
passage through the centennial anniversaries of the great events of
American beginnings. Independent of that, there has been in Indiana
a systematic effort to gather and put in print authentic historical matter
that has resulted in live volumes of Publications of the Indiana His-
torical Society, and twelve volumes of the Indiana Magazine of History
—the latter due to the self-saci*ificing efforts of Mr. George S. Cottman,
— in addition to numerous volumes by individual authors. In this
period the State University and several colleges have taken up special
research work in history in their courses of study, and the public has
profited by the publication of a number of papers of this origin.
"But Indiana history has also been the beneficiary of much of the
research of historical societies in her sister states, and especially those
included in old Northwest Territory. A single illustration will show
the importance of this. When I published my "Indiana, a Redemption
from Slavery", in 1888, I thought I had got to the bottom of the local
slavery history ; but in the last dozen years, the fact has been developed,
in Illinois, that Thomas Jefferson had his hand on the opposition to
slavery all through our territorial history ; and, what is more surprising,
his touch with the movement was through Baptist churches, whose
connection with the movement had not even been noticed. It is a
matter of gratification to be able to present this phase of the matter,
and give the credit where it belongs, in the present publication. The
bringing to light of this and many other material facts not only justifies
the rewriting of Indiana history, but justifies the statement that we
have only now reached the point when the earliest history of Indiana
can be written authoritatively. In these regards, the succeeding pages
will speak for themselves."
