Horace is a city in Greeley County, Kansas, United States.<ref name=gnis/> As of the 2020 census, the population of the city was 102.<ref name="Census-2020-Profile">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
HistoryEdit
Horace was established in 1886 when the Missouri Pacific Railroad passed through the area.<ref>Template:Cite book</ref> The city is named after Horace Greeley of Chappaqua, New York, editor of the New York Tribune.<ref>Template:Cite book</ref><ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> Greeley encouraged western settlement with the motto "Go West, young man".<ref>Template:Cite book</ref>
In 1887, Horace was officially incorporated. When it came time to select the county seat, Horace was a strong candidate, but despite being larger than nearby Tribune, it lost to its eastern neighbor just two miles away. Still, Horace thrived, and by 1888, it had 300 residents, a local newspaper, and a bank.
By the early 1900s, the town featured a brick schoolhouse, a railroad roundhouse, a YMCA building, a hotel, a grocery store, and a Baptist church. None of these buildings remain today.
In 1910, Horace was home to several mercantile businesses, telegraph and express offices, a money order office, and 189 residents. It also continued to serve as a stop on the Missouri Pacific Railroad.
A post office was opened in Horace in 1886. The post office closed on December 30, 1965, and, eventually, the train depot shut down as well.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref><ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
On November 6, 2007, voters in rural Greeley County and in Tribune approved a consolidation of the county and the city.<ref>Greeley County residents pass unification Template:Webarchive, Garden City Telegram, 2007-11-07.
