Buck moved to Minnesota Territory in 1857 and eventually settled in the area that became Mankato, Minnesota. Buck was historically a central figure in the founding of the Village of Mankato, the Mankato Normal School and the Mankato Area Chamber of Commerce. In 1866, Buck served in the Minnesota House of Representatives as a Democrat and then served in the Minnesota State Senate from 1879 to 1883. Buck also served on the Minnesota State Normal School board. He also served on the Mankato, Minnesota school board. Buck served on the Minnesota Supreme Court from 1894 until 1899 when he resigned due to his wife's ill health. In 1904, Judge Buck published his book on the Indian troubles in Minnesota, especially for the Spirit Lake actions. He intended his book Indian Outbreaks to be a judicially impartial account. Buck died in Mankato, Minnesota.[1][2]

gollark: I wonder if there's some intensely hacky way to get around `nil` being the same as a missing key.
gollark: That is arguably similar to what you already have but with more wasted space, though...
gollark: Maybe totally rework the whole setup, actually. Hmm. Maybe something like this?```luathing:attribute("text_color", colors.green):attribute("background_color")```
gollark: I mean, the idea of `background_color = Ribbon.DEFAULT` or something would work, but be weird.
gollark: I mean, look, it syntax-highlights oddly.
