“ To the author the labor is its own reward. Mr. Elliott's solid position in historical scholarship was recognized in Oregon by his constant election for more than 30 years as one of the directors of the Oregon Historical Society, and in Washington by his many years of service as a director of the Washington State Historical Society, and, generally, by his membership in the American Historical Association. ”
