"Of the proceedings of the early Iowa association, only those of the second meeting (title page erroneously states it to be the first), 1875, the third dated 1876, and the fifth, 1878, are known to have been officially printed, though the record shows that the proceedings of the eighth (1881) were ordered to be printed in pamphlet form. Of the official printed proceedings but few copies are known to exist at this time... No record is found after the year 1881, other than an editorial in the Western jurist, for 1882, page 387, setting forth the advantages of a state organization and making an appeal for its continuance. As nothing furthur appears, it is presumed that the association ceased to exist at or about that time."--Historical sketch, p. 10-11.
