Prominent Prairie Partner Plan for Westward Colony Growth
A long reminiscence describes emigration from the East to a large new Colorado settlement near Greeley. It explains a cooperative land plan to curb land speculation, build a central town, and provide education and social privileges. It notes rapid growth, Horace Greeley’s critique, and a sweeping railroad expansion across the Territory with multiple lines set to open by 1871.
