"“In 1917, the Old Salem Lincoln League was formed at Petersburg, to carry on research work (on the pioneer village site) and keep alive the interest already aroused, ” says 1934 state records about New Salem’s restoration. “The Chautauqua association, with Mr. Hearst’s consent, conveyed the site to the State of Illinois to be used as a State Park, and in 1918 the League, with funds raised by popular subscription, erected several cabins on original sites, built a road, marked other cabin sites and in celebration of the occasion, gave a pageant depicting scenes of pioneer days. ” "
