OLSON, Superintendent STATE HISTORICAL SOCIETY When William A. Richardson was appointed governor of Ne braska territory in 1858, he en joyed the distinction of already having a county named in his honor. Richardson County was so named by Acting Governor T. B. Cumming when the terri torial government was organ ized in 1854: At that time, Mr. Richardson was a member of congress from Illinois, and had been instrumental in the pas sage of the Kansas-Nebraska bill. Born and reared in Kentucky, William A. Richardson moved to Illinois as a young man. where he ensased in the pracitce of law and soon became active in politics. He served several terms in the Illinois legislature, and rinrine one of these was SDeaker of the House of Representatives, i He represented an Illinois dis trict in the House of Represen tatives from 1847 to 1856, when he resigned to run for governor of Illinois on the Democratic ticket.

The first time President oueua iau ui cu mm nic , ne reiusea, out nnany in ue cember, 1857, he was persuaded to accept. Governor Richardson served Nebraska territory only a year, but it was one 'full of problems resulting in many a headache for the chief executive. The basic difficulty arose out of a conflict in the legislature which had torn that body asun der, and when the Governor ar rived he found that part of the legislature had vacated the ter ritorial capital at ' Omaha and i was in session at Florence. This group invited the new governor to co-operate with them, but that he refused to do. Instead, he insisted that they return to the regular territori toral capital. One of Richardson's principal acts of governor was to call the legislature into special session to take action correcting the "great confusion and uncertainty" which in his judgment charac terized the laws of the territory. He issued this call on August 14, J 1858, just two days before his j resignation to take effect Janu ary 1, 1859. He left the territory about a month before his resignation was to take effect, returning to Illinois to run for his old seat ,in the House of Representatives. He was elected, and in 1862 he was sent to the Senate to fill out the term of his old friend, Stephen H. .Douglas, who had died. ' : Although his term of office was short, Governor Richardson succeeded in bringing order out of the chaos existing in terri torial affairs when he arrived He has been credited with hav ing "produced the best state papers ever submitted to this I commonwealth," marked by : ' maturity, brevity, and straight- forward simplicity, with a strong t paternal appeal." !
