"Written in order to inform our present and future generations of the life and achievements of their ancestors who laid the foundations for a rich life in this community." - from Dedication page. "Provides the family histories of the settlers of the Fosston district from the time of 1905 until 1980. The numerous photographs tell their own story depicting types of homes, modes of transportation, farming procedures, sports enjoyed and growth in community life. Since schools were great focal points of interest in the life of the residents we have a selection devoted to the school districts of Fosston Rural, Hopeful, Mallard, Hoosehorn #2, Orpington, Ponass Lake and Fosston Hamlet. The spiritual life of the early setters is very evident as we note the faiths which made it possible to erect the churches of Bethel Lutheran, Bobulynci, Evangelical Free, St. Mary's Roman Catholic, Ukrainian Orthodox, and the St. John's Greek Catholic Church." - from Foreward.

Acquaforte, 1875 circa, firmata sotto l'immagine 'Eleuterio Pagliano dip. e inc. / C. Lovera imp.', seguito dal titolo. Stampata su carta coeva, con margini, in ottimo stato di conservazione. Una giovane donna seduta sul marciapiede, con una cuffietta e rivolta verso lo spettatore; il braccio sinistro poggia su un cesto di frutta. Da un dipinto dello stesso artista. La datazione proposta è compresa tra la data di esposizione del dipinto da cui l'acquaforte deriva (1871) e l'anno di pubblicazione della stessa acquaforte su "Arte in Italia" Pagliano iniziò a praticare l’acquaforte, per lo più riproducendo le proprie opere, a partire dal S. Luigi (1851) e dalla Contadina sposa, rendendo popolari i suoi dipinti più apprezzati. Col tempo, grazie anche all’esempio di Mariao Fortuny, la tecnica incisoria si fece indipendente dalla pittura, con opere ricche di intensità luminosa come Pifferaio abruzzese (1870), Pifferaio seduto, Leone, Morto. Una consistente collezione di sue acquaforti è conservata presso la Civica Raccolta stampe Bertarelli di Milano. Bibliografia A. Mezzetti, L'acquaforte lombarda nella seconda metà dell'800, Milano 1935, p. 202 n. 365. Etching, circa 1875, signed beneath the image 'Eleuterio Pagliano dip. and inc. / C. Lovera imp.', followed by the title. Printed on coeval paper, with margins, in excellent condition. A young woman seated on the sidewalk, wearing a bonnet and facing the viewer; her left arm rests on a basket of fruit. After a painting by the same artist. The dating suggested is between the date of exposure of the painting (1871) and the year of publication of the etching on "Arte in Italia". References: A. Mezzetti, L'acquaforte lombarda nella seconda metà dell'800, Milano 1935, p. 202 n. 365.
