Excerpt from The Indiana Quarterly Magazine of History, 1905, Vol. 1: First Quarter Forty years of honest, conscientious devotion; four books that people would not buy, and death in a lonely garret face to face with grim. Poverty because he wrought for the love of truth and not for dollars - this is the life-story of John B. Dillon. He is buried in Crown Hill, just west of the soldiers' graves, and the friends who were kind to him in life have erected a fitting monument to his memory. That he lies beside the heroic dead is well, for he, too. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
