Ghosts still walk the land watered by the Nishnabotna and shaded by the great groves of walnut, oak, and maple.

Clyde Herring, are just three of the scores of extraordinary individuals who played a role in Cass County history. Not every effort met with success, as many early settlements now exist only in the ghostly images of fading memory; yet it is out of their vision and sacrifice that a thriving county of 16 proud townships emerged.
