The city was founded in 1841. By 1850, it was the seventh largest city in Texas; and in the 1860 census, Marshall had risen to fourth largest - in the most prosperous county in the state.
After the Civil War, the town became known as the"GATEWAY TO TEXAS" when the Texas and Pacific Railroad provided transcontinental railway service to the west.

Bike weather: 73 degrees, 50% humidity---not in the desert anymore.
Larry called about 4:30 EST. 55 miles through traffic and some rude people that tried to buzz them. A few yelled for them to get off the road. Yes, to all those non-bikers, bikers do get that kind of thing from drivers. The group is staying at a Baptist College tonight. They are in the gym but were going to the dining hall for cafeteria food.
On Friday they will be in Minden, Louisiana.

Hi, Beth! This is Jane Steadman - Bob Kiser's daughter. We had the honor of having my dad and your Larry spend the night with us on Tuesday when they were in the Dallas area. I am a day behind on writing this because I've had computer problems but I wanted to tell you how much we enjoyed that. Your honey is WONDERFUL! I was instantly comfortable with him and we loved his music. But my favorite moment was when I had to announce that my never-fail chicken and rice casserole looked like soup and Larry instantly said, "Oh, I've been craving chicken and rice soup all day". I LOVED that! Looking forward to celebrating with him and my dad at the end of the trip and also meeting you! Jane
