Our ainx has been to make a perfect and reliable work, and in striving to do this we have spared neither labor nor ex- pense. If we have succeeded, well; if not, we have failed after earnest effort. The difficulty of procuring accurate information on all the subjects presented in this work, has been great; and while there are possibly, some errors, we are yet able to say, that this Directory is as uearh' accurate as any work of the kind ever published. We found the flourisliing towns in the Saginaw Valley new, comparatively; the pi'oject of forming a combined directory of them was new; and the labor and care attending the compilation of such a work for the first time in any locality, is not easily understood by those who have had no experience in the matter. We say this, that the effort may not be viewed too critically. — The great amount of labor necessarily laid out in procuring the historical portion of this work has delayed its publication several weeks beyond the time originally designated. For this delay -we ask the indulgence of our patrons. To Hon. C. P. Avery, of Flint, we are under great obligations for the services rendered in fxirnisliing the Early Indian and Pioneer History of the Saginaw Valley— a history that cannot fail to be read with deep interest. To the Rev. J. A. Wight, T. W. Watkins and William McCormick, of Bay City; William H. Sweet, Esq., aud Lester Cross, Esq., of Saginaw City; we are indebted for aid extended in procuring the local history of their respective places of residence; and to ^^'illianl L. Webber, Enq., for reliable Salt statistics. We are also under obligations to Mr. L. E. Elliott, for assistance in compiling the history of East Saginaw, to J. S. Estabrook, Esq., for statistics ot Lumbei', Shingles, &c., and to others who have I'endered us aid and in- formation. We return our cordial thanks to the business men of the Valley, who have extended to us a liberal pati'onage. For the superior typography of the work we are indebted to Messrs.

Indian and Pioneer Incidents of the Saginaw Valley. BY CHAKI.ES P. AVERY. The various Indiau nations within the United States having been always treated as independent powers, although living within our borders, and after the Revolutionary War, as well as after the War of 1812, as helpless, and their tenure as frail as tenants at sutferance, no negotiation or agreement with them, as nations, would have been deemed valid unless entered into by the President and approved by the Senate of the United States — the treaty-making and the treaty-ratifying powers. The action of the President and Senate was an indispensable pre-requisite to any valid disposition of their possessory rights, and as a power delegated by the States, under the national Con- stitution, it took precedence of all action on their part. Although living within our borders, and ansu'erable to our criminal law for all violations of the peace and for crimes, we have always granted them the right of internal or domestic pol- ity, and at no time when the}' have lived in bands, according to the custom of their fathers, have we sought to throw over them our civil code. Where individuals of those races have separated themselves from their tribal associations and have lived isolated, they have been generally treated as citizens and made amenable to our civil code regulating the rights of property, real and per- sonal, its descent and distribution. - f.VDf.VX AND PIOXKKR ffrsfORV, As a fact in the history of nations, it is certainly anomalous and singular that there should have heen and now are distinct and independent governments within the limits of our national sovereignty — instances of an Imjii-rium in imperio. But such has been at all times the fact from the early history of the Eepuhlic d(jwn to the present time ; a course of action and a treatment of that unfortunate and now fast disappearing race of people, inaugurated and insisted upon by the great and good "Wasliington witJi his rotineil and high sense of national equity. P)y this view which he and successive administrators of our national affairs took of their condition, we recognized the posses- sory rights of the Indians. They were substantial rights which coiild only be parted with at treaties fairly made, at public and open councils of the natives, where the General Government should be represented by its agent, and everything done fairly, freely and without the least taint of authority or duress. This was the theory of those councils, and the wise and humane intention of Washington and of the Government. If violated in any instance to the injury of the weaker party, and there were doubtless exceptional instances of such violation, it should be attributed to corrupt individual action and not to the expressed and well known instructions of the proper department of our Government. The first treaty of importance which was made for the ex- tinguishment of the Indian title to the soil of what now compri- ses the State of Michigan, was the one entered into by William Hull, then Governor of Michigan, as a territory, and ex-ojficio Superintendent of Indian Affairs, with the natives at Detroit, in 1807, when a tract of land in the south-eastern part of the State was ceded by them to our Government. Detroit and a belt of land adjacent to it, lying along the river and lake, six miles in width, were not affected by this grant, we having before that succeeded to the possessory rights of Great Britian to the District of Detroit, so called, -which she had held for a series of years, co-extensive with the claims of her prede- IXDIAN A^"l) PIOXF.Ell HISTOKY. d f-essor, France ; and which by the Treaty of Greenville, made by General Wayne, on behalf of our Government, in 179->, had \)een re-assured to and made perfect in us. With that exception, tlie title to the south-easterly part of our 8tate \vas obtained from the natives by the treaty of 1807. The northerly line of this grant included only small portions of what are now the counties of Lapeer and Genesee, and was a little north uf their southern boundaries, thus leaving the Sagi- naw Eiver and its principal affluents, the Flint, the Cass, &c., entirely unaffected by the provisions of that treaty. This portion of the State renxained in Indian possession, Avith the rights of the natives intact and unaffected, until the Treaty of Saginaw of 1819. In that treaty we are particularly interested, for the cession of hinds then made by the natives, with the reservations therein provided for, include the rich and ffourishing valleys of the Sag- inaw and its tributaries. General Cass was commissioned to act as the agent of the General Government in securing to it this important addition to our territory. He was then in the vigor of his manhood, with a laudable ambition to achieve a national reputation and to identify himself by his exertions with the acquisition of such a valuable body of land, and feeling that the influx of immigration, then beginning to be felt at Detroit and its vicinity, required a wider domain for it to spread over, and with the greater security it would give to life and property of settlers upon the domain which had been acquired by the previous treaty, lie felt the importance of the enterprise into which he was about to embark, and that if suc- cessful it would be an achievement upon which any statesman might well ground a claim for the gratitude of those then living at and near Detroit, and might be excused if he looked to such achievement as the ground-work of future national honors. He appeared upon the Saginaw, upon the site of what is now Saginaw City, on the 10th of September, A. D. IS 19. with his staff of interpreters and assistants. INDIAN AND nONEICK flISTOKV. They male the journey, the whole distance upon horseback, from Detroit by way of Flint, and thence down the river by the way of what was until lately the Indian Reservation of Pe-won- ny-go-wingh, which was at that time the tribal home of the Chief Ne-ome and his successor in the Chieftanship, Tone-dok-a-ne. Before starting from Detroit the General had directed Mr. Louis Campau, who had been since 181G an established Indian Trader at that point upon the Saginaw, to build the Council House and make the necessary arrangements for the reception of the Commissioner and his company. No other man could have been so appropriately selected to meet the Commissioner's expec- tations and aid him in the details of the enterprise. Mr. Campau yet survives, an aged gentleman but w^th an accurate memory, a fine representative of the better class of early French pioneers, a liberal, public spirited and worthy citizen. Two government vessels, laden with stores for the subsistence of those upon the treaty ground, were sent around by lakes St. Clair and Huron. On one of these was a company of United States soldiers, commanded by Captain Cass, a brother of the General, who had been ordered to the treaty ground for the protection of those in attendance. By the time the Commissioner, with his staff of interpreters, secretaries and assistants had arrived, Mr. Campau and his employees had constructed the Council House. It was spacious and commodious, extending several hundred feet along the bank of the river, a few rods back from the shore, and of the requisite width to accommodate the large number of natives who were expected to be present. Situated nearly between the pres- ent site of the Webster House and the river, but severel rods farther down on the slight ridge or second rise from the shore, its position was commanding and pleasant. Trees conveniently situated, furnished the columns of the Council Hall, and boughs interlaced above made the roof The sides and ends were open. It was of an order of architecture not recognized by Ruskin, Downing, Upjohn or aay professional INDIAN AND riONEKK HISTOKY. writer upon that branch of science. It was doubtless more nearly assimilated to that Temple described by the Great Poet of na- ture, Bryant, in the opening of his Forest Hymn, one of the finest of all his fine poems: "The Groves were God's first temples; ere man learned To hew the shiift and lay the architrave And spread the roof abovo them, ere he framed The lofty vault to gather and roll back The sound of anthems." A platform made of 'ogs, faced or evened by the axe, elevated about a foot above the ground, and broad enough to accommo- date upon rustic benches, Commissioner Cass and the other ofiicials, occupied the central portion of the Council Eoom. Huge logs in their native roughness had been rolled in upon the other space to be used as seats by the native lords of the soil when in solemn council. The bordering woods were dotted with temporary wigwams, hastily and rudely constructed by the natives for the accommodation of themselves and families during the pendency of the negotiation. Among other preparations, temporary but convenient additions to his trading house had been made by Mr. Campau, sufficiently spacious to make a good sized dining room for the large number of officials present, and comfortable quarters for the Commissioner. The number of Indians present at the time of his arrival was not as large as was expected. Messengers or runners had been sent among the different bands, some living quite remote from the place of holding the Council, to notify them of the proposed treaty, and others were sent out for like purpose after the fact became apparent that some localities were not properly repre- sented. The number present upon the treaty ground on the day when the third, which was the fullest Council that was held, has been variously estimated from one thousand five hundred to four thou- sand. They were mainly Chippewas, but not all. There were present some Ottawas of pure and mixed blood, and although in our State papers the parties to the treaty are spoken of as the United States on the one side and the Chippewa nation on the IXUIAN AMI I'lONKKU niSTOltY. other, there are the names of Chiefs and head-men afHxed to the treaty who were of ( )tta\va descent. There were but three regular Councils or audiences held dui'ing the ten or twelve days that the negi^tiations were pending. At such formal Councils the chiefs, warriors, head-men and braves, only were called and admitted into the Council Hall, although the sides being open and the opportunity for hearing and seeing unimpeded, the ludian women and their children gathered in timid groups close by. They were silent but by no means dis- interested spectators of the solemn negotiations proceeding \\ ithin, which involved no less than a full and final surrender of the burial places of their fathers, the ancient hunting grounds of their people, the fair and beautiful heritage of forest and corn ground, lake and river. At the first Council General Cass made known to the natives through Henry Conner and Whitmore Knaggs, expei-ienced and highly respected Indian Traders, and as interpreters most com- petent, the object of his journey from Detroit and the general purposes of our Government. He endeavored to impress upon them the paternal regard which their Great Father at Washing- ton had for their welfare, and the liope that the peaceful relations Avhich had existed between them since the close of the war should be rendered perpetual. He reminded them of their condition as a people, the swelling t)f the wave of civilization toward their hunting grounds, the growing scarcity of game, the importance and necessity of turning their attention more to agriculture, and relinquishing the more uncertain mode of living by the chase, and the better condition they would ultimately be in by confining themselves to reservations ample for the [)urposes of agriculture, to be provided for them by the pi-oposed treaty, and the cession of the residue of the territority then occupied b} those who were there represented, upon such terms and guarantees as their con- dition required, including thei'ein stipulated annuities. He was answered by their chief speakers with a gravity and eloquence peculiar to Indian Councils. rXDIAX AND T'lOXEKU HISTORY. / Three Chiefs of higli repute acted as speakers for the Indians, who survived for some years after the treaty, and were known to some of the earlier settlers in the valley. Their names were oftentimes pronounced by our early traders and pioneers differ- ently, and are found in documents with different orthography, but as they appear at the foot of the treaty they are Mish-e-ne- na-non-e-c[uet, 0-ge-maw-ke-ke-to, and also at the first Council Kish-kaw-ko. At the subsequent Councils the latter was not present, except at the last, and tlien merely to affix his totem to the treaty after it had been engrossed for execution. He had put himself out of condition at the close of the first day by drinking, and remained in a state quite unpresentable as a speaker for the residue of the time. He was an Indian of violent temper, and in the excitement of liquor was reckless in the commission of outrage. Subsequent to the treaty, after many acts of violence, he was arrested and died in prison at Detroit. He was less dangerous in his wigwam quietly drunk than in the Council Room tolerably sober. The chief speaker, (])-ge-niaw-ke-ke-to, opposed the proposition made by Commissioner Cass with indignation. His speech as remembered by persons still surviving, who were interested listeners, was a model of Indian eloquence. He Avas then C[uite young, not over twenty-five years of age, above the average height, and in his bearing, gracefuhand handsome ; although in the later years of his life he was often seen intoxicated, he never fully lost a look of conscious dignity which belonged to his nature as one of the original lords of the soil. In true eloquence he was probably hardly surpassed by the Seneca Chief, Sa-go-ye-wat-ha (Eed Jacket). His band lived at the Forks of the Tittabawassee, and like the famous Seneca Chief he wore upon his breast a superb Government medal. He addressed the Commmissioner : "You do not know our wishes. Our people wonder what has brought you so far from your homes." 'i:H;K UrSTUUY. Mr. Campau left liis tradhig post at Saginaw Citj', for a per- luanent removal, in June, l.'^-ll ; his bi-other, Autoiue, succeed- ing him. The building has but recently been removed and will be readily called to mind, u[)on the west side of Water street opposite Wright & Co's Mill, as the residence until within a few years, of that genial old Frenchman, J. Baptiste Desnoyers, who made the dilapidated tenement, with its rickety stall's and loose flooring, seem cheerful with his cordial welcome. It may be mentioned here that fcr one year, (181!),) Mr. Cam- pau also occupied a trading post on the site of what is now East Saginaw, near where the Methodist ]\Iission House was after- werdii erected ; but tin ding, the Indians discontented, he soon abandoned it. Their announcement of dissatisfaction was sud- den and unmistakably pointed : " We gave you the other side for trading ; go there." In the fall of 182G, he became the proprietor of two frac- tional quarters, by gove rnmeut entry, covering what is now a large part of the site of the flourishing city of Grand Eapids. He has been emphatically the father of that flourishing inland town. Selling his fine landed estate with the greatest liberality ; endorsing freely for enterprising new-comers to that place ; asso- ciating himself with every worthy enterprise — the sequence we readily anticipate — embarassment and straitened means ; the classical but very inconvenient res angustae at home ; an humble but cheerful cottage, with a limited garden-plat, upon the se- cluded outskirts of his once lordly possessions. In connection with these facts how pleasant to read a paragraph, which ap- peared recently in the Detroit Free Press. " A Nice Thing Nt'celi/ Done. — Under this head a Grand Eapids paper gives an account of a Christmas present to Louis Campau, Esq. The presentation was made by a number of leading citi- zens, and consisted of a purse containing |il,040." The same autumn of the treaty, (1819,) Smith, whose influ- ence with the Indians was so marked on that occasion, built a trading-house, rough and of limited dimensions, near where the Baptist Church now stands, in the city of Flint. He lived there INDIAN' AND PIONKKR HISTORY. 17 during the trading season, making occasional visits to his family in Detroit. In 18"25, he died, from neglect as much as from dis- ease, at kis trading post, after a lingering and pitiable sickness. A good hearted Frenchman, by the name of Baptiste Cochios, who was with him upon the treaty ground in 1819, and himself an Indian trader, having his posts upon the Plint and on the Saginaw, j>erforiRed for the brave but unfortunate man the last sad rites of humanity. An Indian lad, who had lived with Mr. Smith for several years and attended him in his sickness, was the only household mourner. He was the same Indian whose name was associated in later years as co-plaintiff with tho Messrs. Dewey, of Flint, in several actions of ejectment brought to recover from the occupants Sec- tion Two, on which the First Ward of that city is situated* The proof however showed that his real name was xln-ne-me- kins, and that he was not the genuine Me-ta-wa-ne-ne, for whom a section of land was intended and reserved iu article third of the treaty. A few Indians gathered in mournful groups about the grave, as the remains of the unfortunate mau were committed to the earth. Ne-ome was there, his trusty and reliable friend, mute with grief. With that feeling of gratitude which belongs to the Indiaa character, and which takes rank as a cardinal virtue in their un- tutored minds, the Indians proved true and faithful throughout his sickness to the last. The brave, warm-hearted, generous Indian trader, Jacob Smith, the earliest white pioneer upon the Saginaw and the Flint, lingered and died in sad condition, and but for the good Cochios and his Indian assistants, would have gone to his grave uncoffined. Within a few daj's after his decease, his son-in-law, C. S. Payne, came out from Detroit, to the trading-house which had so recently been the scene of such long and unrelieved suffering, and gathered up most carefully and carried away the few poor 18 ' IXDIAX A^I) r'IOXEEB^ IlISTOKr. remnants of the earthly stores left bj' the noble-hearted Indian trader. Sa-gos-e-\va-qua, the daiighter of Ne-orae, in recounting this liistory, expressed herself with a sententious brevity j^eculiar to the Indian and worth recording. " It points a moral," if it does not " adorn a tale." " When Wah-be-sins (Smith) sick nobody come. Him sicker and sicker ; nobody come. Wah-be- sins die, little tinker come and take all him blankets, all him cattle, all him things." Ne-ome soon followed his friend Wah-be-sins to the Spirit Land. He died in 1827, at his tribal home, a few miles above Saginaw City, enthroned, in patriarchal simplicity, in the hearts of his people, beloved, mourned and faithfully attended, through a long and severe sickness, by his children and relatives. Judge Gardiner I). Williams became an Indian trader at Sag- inaw City, in the spring of 1828. His brother, Ephi-aim S. Williams, joined him in the autumn of that year. They occu- pied the little red building at the foot of Mai'kinaw Street as their store, where they continued to trade until ISIO. They were the sons of Oliver Williams, who emigrated from Old Concord, .Middlesex County, Massachusetts, before the War of 1812. He became a merchant at Detroit, and at the opening of hostilities was engaged in the commerce of the lakes. His vessel was captured at Mackinaw and himself taken prisoner. — His vessel was in the enemy's fleet at the memorable battle of Lake Erie, which has immortalized the name of Perry, her name having been changed by them from the "Friend's Good Will," to the "Little Belt." In March, 1819, he established himself, with his family, on what was afterwards known as the " old homestead," near Sil- ver Lake, three miles north of Poutiac, where the two sons remained until their removal to Saginaw City, in 1828. Eeaume, a Frenchman and an old Indian trader, was at that time and at that point, the agent of the American Fur Company. He and the Messrs. Campau had had personal difficulties of long INDIAN AND nONEEK HISTOllY. 19 standing, which had become an inveterate feud, creating un- profitable divisions with the Indians, amounting with them to fierce partizan hatred. The current was turned against Eeaume, and his personal safety becoming endangered, his store was kept closed too much of the time for him to continue a profitable agent for the company at that post. Judge Abbott, the Company's Superintendent at Detroit, selected the Messrs. Williams as the successors of Eeaume, who came on as before detailed, and be- came the owners of his interests at Saginaw City, and also at the Little Fork of the Tittabawassee, (Midland City,) where he had another post. Dequindre, an active young Frenchman, had been his local sub- agent, until a vicious Indian by the name of Wah-be-man-ito or White Devil, forcibly took possession of the post, driving out the sub-agent, who fled for his life, for several days roaming about, lost in the woods, and ultimately coming into Saginaw City with his feet frozen. The Campaus had a rival post at the same place, and by the abandonment of the other, the valuable trade of the Tittabawassee was left wholly in their hands. The winter after Mr. E. S. Williams had establisned himself at Saginaw City, he was deputed to take stores to that point and re-open the trading-house. He chose for his asistants, Jacob Graveradt, and the two younger Eoys. Prudent friends endeav- ored to persuade him not to embark in an enterprise so evidently fraught with danger,but the Company's interests required the venture, and he soon with his assistants presented himself at the post. A short time only elapsed before Wah-be-man-ito re- sumed his attitude of hostility. He was on his way with his outfit to the trapping ground, somewhat in liquor. He stopped at the door of the trading post, and with an infeo- ent and defiant bearing, which a half-drunken Indian only can assume, demanded liquor. " Mish-sha-way," (Mr. Williams name, meaning Big Elk,) " give me whiskey." It was refused. He placed his hand upon the handle of his tomahawk, and re- peated the demand more fiercely than at first, and was met by another refusal as defiant as his last demand. -0 (SMAS A5l'» flOSEEU niSTOKT. He spran;^: for Mr. Williams v^ith his tomahawk upraised, and aimed a blow at liiiu which, if it had not been dextev-- lously avoided, would doubtless hare proved fatal. With a weli seasoned hickoiy club Mr. Williams defended himself, knocking his assailant down and bein<^ abont to repeat the blow the dis- coinfitted hero beg-j^^ed for mercy. After g-etting upon his feet and recovering from the stunning- effects of the blow he walked out of the trading house and sate down in front of it in apparently deep thoug-ht. He f-xKm after called to Mr. Williams and expressed gi'eat mortification at the outrage he had attempted; and to confirni his sincerity promised that his nest furs he would bring to his new friend Williams. — He kept his promise faithfully and became the fast friend of the man at wlionj, within an hour previous, he had aimed a deadly blow. The Messrs. Williams sooon after bought out the trading post of Antoine Campau who had, as before stated, succeeded to hiss brother Louis, which quieted the dangerous spirit of rivalry that had already culminated in some serious affrays between the In- dians and others who had become parties to the feud. Among- other agents who had residences, at different times, at Saginaw, were Sherman Stevens, the father of the distinguished actress Miss Sara Stevens, who has achieved in the drama no ordinary position. To considerable solid acquirement he united a vein of romance and sentiment which made him at that time a genial companion and a rare social acquisition to the limited society of Saginaw. He was master of the Chippewa dialect and spoke the language fluently and well. Archie Lyons was another trustworthy ag-ent of the Messrs. Wil- liams, whose history is identified with the Saginaw Valley prior to the Treaty. He was a fine penman well educated and a mu- sician of no little skill. He was located at the little Forks of the Tittabawassee (Midland City) and in coming down from that point, on the ice, upon skates, for the purpose of playing the vio- lin for a dancing party at Saginaw City he was drowned. rtJDIAX AND rrOXEER HISTORY. 21 His track was found upon the ice the next day, to the edge of the hole into which he had skated, leaving no doubt as to his fate. His, widow, a bright and agreeable woman, of French and Indian extraction, who i-ejoiced in the almost unpronouncable name of Ka-ze-zhe-ah-be-no-qua, became afterwards the wife of Antoine Peltier of Pine-ne-con-ning; a second marriage that was undoubtedly justifiable if her object was to free herself from her most remarkable Indian name. The Messrs. Williams had another agent, Mejeau, an Indian of quarter blood; an accurate clerk although he could neither read nor write. Thousands of dollars passed through his hands yearly. His mode of keeping accounts was the same as that usually adopted among the agents. A straight mark symbolized one dollar. One a muskrat or a quarter of a dollar. Two O's a half dollar. Instead of the name of the Indian his totem was drawn upon the book and prefixed to his accounts. 0-ge-mau- ke-ke-to's totem was a long fish, a spotted pickerel, which he made with some skill, another's was a beaver, another's a bear &c. Judge G. D. Williams, died at his homestead at Saginaw City on the 11th day of Dec. A. D. 1858, beloved and mourned. — His brother, Mr. E. S. W^dliams, is still living at Windsor, oppo- site-Detroit, with his constitution unimpaired by his early border life, and a strength of muscle still intact, that would make any modern Wah-be-man-ito tremble in an encounter. .Tohn or Jack Smythe liad a trading house, from lS30to 183-, at Saginaw City a little below the Campau trading house. It stood there until within a few years and will be remembered as a buildmg with a thatched roof. He was a trader of but little pi'ominence. The writer of this article is indebted to Mr. E. S. Williams for the facts of the following incident, which occurred while Mi-. Williams was a resident of Saginaw City and of which he was personally cognizant, one of the most romantic and remarkable affairs to be found in our border annals. 22 IXDIAN AND PIOXF.KK HISTOKV. Some few years after the treaty and soon after Judge Jewitt, Col. Stannard, and the Messrs. Williams became residents of Saginaw City this incident occurred, strongly illustrative of fron- tier life and of Indian cliaracter. Nah-way-go was a young Saginaw Brave, living in his earlier life at Green Point and his later years vipon the Lake Shore. — He is described as a model of native strengtii and grace. While living at the former place he killed a son of lied Bird who lived on the Tittabawassee Reservation. The relatives de- manded satisfaction and by Indian law his life was the forfeit. He presented himself at the chief mourner's wigwam where the warriors of the family of the deceased had assembled and informed them that he had come for them to strike at his heart. He bared his bosom and took his position for the selected number to pass by him and inflict the knife wound. They passed and inflicted, as they hoped, the mortal thrusts. That done and Indian usage being satisfied he was making the best speed he could, with his streaming wounds, to his own wigwam when he was struck in the back by a cowardly Indian, inflicting a severe stab but as it appears, like the other blows, not fatal. He was yet enabled to reach his wigwam where his young wife was awaiting in anxiety, his return. She received him and boimd up his wounds. He was restored after fearful suffering. Finding the coward afterwards upon his hunting ground, who had inflicted upon him the wound in the back he visited him summarily with Indian vengeance; death. Soon after the Indians were assembled in large numbers at Saginaw City at a "payment." An altercation ensued between Black Beaver, an Indian of considerable note and the young Brave, Nah-way-go ; the former reproaching him with the outrage he had committed upon the Indian who had struck him in the back. Nah-way-go defended the act as just and brave. — The reproof was repeated and upon the instant he slew Black Beaver. INDIAX AND PIONEER HISTORY. 23 Tliis was near the site of the Emerson mill on the east side of the river; Black Beaver and his band were there encamped ; on the west side and below the city, on the open plain, Nah-way-go and his band M'ere encamped. After tha bloody deed he crossed, over to the west side among his own people. A warrant was at once issued by Col. Staunard for his arrest, acting as Justice. Nah-way-go fled back to the east side of the river and accompanied by a friend seoretecl himself in the woods upon what is now the site of East Saginaw. He preferred to trust himself on the same side of the river with the tribe whose leading warrior he had stricken down than to endure the mortification of arrest and punishment by tlie white man's law. He sent word to two of his white friends, Antoine Campaix and Mr. E. S. Williams desiring, them to cross the rivpr and come to the woods, in which he was secreted, when by giving a signal he would come to them. They did so and he soon made his appearance. He informed them that he had sent for them for advice; that the white man's punishment, imprisonment, was only fit for cowards; death by the hands of his own race was gl(>rious, in comparison, if any relative of Black Beaver should choose to make it a cause of vengeance. They advised him to cross back to his own camp, present him- self to his people and let the affair take the course warranted by Indian usage. The arrest by the officer was waived and he presented himself at his own camp openly. The hour for the burial of Black Beaver arrived. Au immense number of Indians were gathered as mourners and spectators at the place for burial which w^as between the old Campau trading house and the river. The body had been placed in the coffin. — The relatives with their faces streaked with black paint had gathered about it. The few white settlers then in the Valley were all there as spectators. The fearful outrage, so near to their own doors, had absorbed and engrossed the attention of all. 24 * INDIAN AND PIONEKl; IlISTOIiY. While the solemn Indian rite was in prog-ress over tlie remains of their favorite warior, Nah-way-go was seen approaching fi-om his campmg ground. He was di-essed in full and careful costume; tomahawk and knife in girdle and a small canteen of whiskey at his side; his whole appearance imposing and gallant. He made his way with a loft\' and majestic step to the centre of the mourning groujv. Walking, with measured step, to the side of the coffin he placed upon it his tomahawk and knife. He filled his calumet with kinikinnick, composedly and with diginity. After smoking from it himself first, he passed it to the chief mourner, who declined it. He passed it to the next and the next with the same result. He passed his canteen of whiske}' wdth the same formality and with the same residt. They declined to pai'take. He then undid the collar of his hunting shirt and bared his bosom, seating himself with calm dignity upon the foot of the coffin. He turned his face full upon the chief mourners and addressed them : "You refuse my pipe of peace. You refuse to drink with me. Y'ou wish my life. Here it is. Strike deep. Strike not in the back. Strike not and miss. The man that does, dies when I meet him. on our hunting ground." Not a hand was raised. Upon the dark and stoical faces of that cloud of enemies, by whom he was surrounded, no feeling found expression except of awe; no muscle moved. He rose, and towering to his full fine height, exclaimed: — "Cowards, cowards, cowards." As composedly as he had taken them out he restored, unmo- lested, the tomahawk and knife to his girdle and, with his can- teen at his side, walked away from the strange scene as lordly as he came. He had awed his enemies and was evidently nuister of the situation. IXDIW ANB VrONEKR PIOXEER HISTOEY. 25 Removing soon after to the lake shore, a\yay from the scene of his early feuds and fearful exploits he fell ultimately upon the hunting ground in a personal recontre with a relative of one of his early victims " A forest hero! as fearless as Rob Eoy, as chivalrous as Ehod- eriok Dhu. The theme is worthy of the pen of a Sir Walter or the epic verse of Whittier, Hosmer or Street. It is certainly somewhat above the flight of a plain prose pen. Mr. Normal Little may well be called the projector and father of the enterprising city of East Saginaw. Mr. Little was the son of Docter Charles Little of East Avon, Livingston County, New York, who had become a pioneer there as early as 1797, emigrating from Columbia County, Connecticut. He practised his profession for forty-two years in Livingston County. In 1822, certainly a ver}' early day in the history of North- ern Michigan, the Doctor formed a very favorable opinion of the Saginaw Valley from an inspection of the then imperfect maps of this part of the State, and deposited with Chancellor Farns- worth at Detroit sufficient money to secure the lands to himself, by government entry, which he deemed the most valuable upon the Saginaw. In 1823 and 1824 he again visited the valley and traced all the tributaries of the Saginaw and had the entries made, which he deemed desirable, immediately, upon the open- ing of the Land office. He entered lands upon the Saginaw for several miles extend- ing, from the lowest point of East Saginaw, all the way, with occassional exceptions, to Grreen Point, including in his purchases the site of what is now the flourishing village of Salina, and on the ether side of the river, for several miles from SaginaAV City to the Tittabawassee and also above upon that stream. Doctor. Little was familiar with and had passed over the site of Roch- ester N. Y., in an early day, many times, when it was a silvan waste and had seen that and other localities which could have been purchased at nominal prices, converted, as if by magic, into busy marts. The same money which he had been loaning to 26 lyoiAy a so vioyKKii hisjohy. the farniera of Ijivingfcton at seven ner cent., if invested in such localities, would have returned him a princely income. Acting- upon a theory which iiad been thus practically impressed upuu him, and with a foresight eminently wise, he made the entries spoken of. Like causes in Michigan have produced etiects sim- ilar to those in Western New York and his descendents feel and appreciate his far seeing sagacity. After a life of eminent usefulness he died at the homestead in 1842. His son Norman I^ittle, partaking of the enterprising spirit of his father came through to 8aginaw City by the Indian trail at an eaidy day. In his company were some eight or nine others from Western New York. They made their intended explorations and returned. Mr. Norman Liltle removed from Littleville and became a permanent resident of Saginaw City in lSo(). He bought the sight of that place, the jMilitary Reserve, for himself, Mackie, Oakley and Jennison of New York City. Price ^55,000. The purchase was made of Dr. Millington of Ypsilanti who had bought of the Government at public sale for |!l 2,000. Mr. Little came from Detroit in June 1836 with Governor Mason by steamboat up the Saginaw, the first steam vessel, it is said, that ever ploughed the waters of that river. The expenditures of the firm of Mackie & Co., of which Mr. Little was a member, in their efforts to biiild up Saginaw City by the erection of various expensive structures, which still stand as moauments of their enterprise, amounted to a large sum, and followed so soon by the financial crisis of 1887 and 1838, it is not to be wondered at that trouble and embarrassment ensued, causing further active efforts on their part, at that time, to build up Saginaw City, almost entirely to cease. Disappointed but not discouraged, Mr. Norman Little turned his attention to the oast side of the river and, in 1850, induced Mr. James M. Hoyt of the old firm of Eli Hoyt & Co. of New York City, and his son, Mr. Jesse Hoyt, to become interested, with INDIAN AND nONEEK HISTORY. 27 liiuiself, eac-li one third, in the site and business of East Saginaw. They had been business acquaintenances and ohl friends for many j'ears, when ]\[r. Little resided at Littleville where the father and son had both shared his hospitality and knew the intrinsic worth and goodness of his character. To consummate the enterprise two hundred and twenty acres, upon the site of East Saginaw, and other jjroperty amounting to l2,400 acres, on the same side of the river, were bought by the partners ; a portion from those who had purchased of Dr. Little's estate and some from Messrs. Carroll, and others of Livingston County, New York. From an enterprise, thus inaugurated by Mr. Norman Little, East Saginaw entered upon its career of remarkable prosperity; and his memory may well be cherished, with a tender care, by those now enjoying the fruits of his far-seeing wisdom ; especiallj^ when they call to mind the struggles through which he passed and the courage with which he cairied his plans through to a glorious fruition. Mr. Little removed from Saginaw City to East Saginaw, for a permanent residence, in the year 1852, where he continued to reside until bis decease in 18t)0, To great energy of character and a physical endurance, not a little remarkable, Mr. Little united a mild and benevolent dis- position and a truly social nature, which rendered him, to the latest moment of his life, an object of affectionate regard to those who were his juniors and of uninterrupted attachment to the friends and associates of past years. To the latter he ever remained constant and true, for friendship, with him, was a sacred sentiment, admitting no cold and heartless change. They could not and did not forget him. He could not and did not forget them. True friendship and a spirit of universal hospitality be- longed to his nature and became substantial characteristics. .In his view they were cardinal virtues. But few of this class of pioneers now remain. The ancient landmarks are fast disappearing. "Time rolls his ceaseless course." 28 INDIAN AND I'lOXEKIt lUSTOKY. Mr. IIakvky Wikliams, whose history is identified witli the Saginaw Valley since 1834, was for many years, prior thereto, a resident of Detroit, wliere he was engaged in the fouudery business, was a skillfulll machinist and was sometimes employ- ed as a mill-wright. Mr. Williams deserves something more than a passing notice as one the very few yet living of the earlier stock of emigrants from tlie Eastern States to this then remote territory. 1815 was the year of his emigration from Charlton, Worcester County, Massachusetts, to Detroit, where he continued to reside until the time of bis removal to Saginaw City, (vhere he entered into the lumbering business, building there the first steam saw- mill north-west of Detroit and giving his attention to that until 1888, in which year his well known integrity of character caused him to be employed by tlie State in the opening of roads. He constructed the read from Flint to Sasrinaw City, via Bridgeport, and, in the various enterprises of that era, which had for their object the improvement of tlie communications with the Saginaw Valley by water as well as by land, he was among the foremost. And through his influence the Light House at the mouth of the river was established and for a year was taken charge of by him. In the winter of 1822 — 3 Mr. Williams made a trip from Detroit to Saginaw in performance of a contract made by him- self, and Col. John Hamilton yet living at Flint, with the Gov- ernment to take supplies through to that point for the use of the garrison established there in 1822. On this trip the}' were accompanied by Mr. E. S. Williams and Schuyler Hodges, late of Pontiac, as guides and assistants. At Saginaw City he found Mr. Louis Campau and Reaume, interpreter Archie Lyons, Provensal, Indian blacksmith, and two or three others engaged in the fur trade, the only white persons there except the two Companies of United States Infantry at the Garrison. These troops were of the 3d Eegiment and had been ordered from Green Bay to occupy the Post, for the protection of the Saginaw valley and adjacent frontier. INDIAN AND PIONKIiK HISTORY. 29 They were under the command of Major Daniel Baker and remained at this point a little more than a year. After losing- some valuable officers, Lieutenants Baker and Allen, and manv from the ranks, by disease, they received from the War Depart- ment an order for their removal to Detroit. The locality was considered at that time and doubtless was exceedingly unhealthy. The flooding of the valleys of the Saginaw and its tributaries, the spring previous to their removal, by the rapid melting of the unusually heavy body of snow then upon the ground, had, with the excessive heat of the following sumuxer, generated endemic diseases which baffled the best medical skill. The venerable and beloved Docter Pitcher, of Detroit, who was then x\ssistant Surgeon in the regular army, and had re- ported to Major Baker at this time, was in attendance upon the Garrison. His skill and etibrts did much to prevent and alleviate but could only partially stay the progress of disease. The Fort was abandoned in the autumn of 182o, an event, which from the reasons assigned for its discontinuance, tended to draw away attention from the Saginaw valley and retard immi- gration. On the route from Detroit to Saginaw City Mr. Williams and his company found but five or six settlers ; at Pontiac, Orison Allen, Mr. Oliver Williams at Silver Lake, Alpheus Williams the father of Harvey, at W^aterford, Jacob Stevens at Grand Blanc, Edward Campau a half breed, who had lost an arm, (the Now- o-ke-ghick named in article 3d of the Treaty,) and the unfortunate Smith at Grand Tx-averse (Flint). Of Mr. Jacob Stevens, there should be, if the annals of that locality were within the scope of this art'cle, a more extended notice. He was a true type of the gentlemen of the old school, to whose moral and physical courage, as a pioneer, was united a rare intelligence, marked by a liter- ary taste showing itself conspicuously even in the few scattered remnants of his correspondence which have come down to this day. 30 INDIAN AND I'lOXKKH lUSTOIIV. In 1837 Mr. Williams built, for Messrs. Mackie & Co., of ■\viiioli firm INIr. Norman Little and himself were members, having each one-fifth interest, the Saw mill, since know n as the Emer- son mill. Tlie year previous he had erected the first Iranie dwelling house, near the null, on what is now the site of the city of East Saginaw. Of the latter place he has become a per- manent resident quite recently. For several years he lived at his homestead at the mouth of the Kaw-kaw-ling, (the name of which Mr. W. says is 0-gah-kah- ning) a few milos westerly from the mouth of the Saginaw, where he traded largely with the Indians and was engaged very exten- sively in the Ijake and Bay fisheries. So fair and upright have been his dealings with, not only, his white neighbors but also with the natives, that he has secured to himself the sincere and unchanging respect and regai'd of all. Those friends, who have shared the hospitality of his house, upon that bleak pi'omentoiy which projects into the bay, partic- ularly in midwinter, when the winds from the north have been abroad in their wrath, know how to appreciate the warmth of his (velcome at the threshold ; the hospitable, savory board, the profusion of which was only equaled by its neatness ; the luxu- rious beds for tired, chilled limbs ; and last, but certainl}' not least, that glorious barrel of "Bay water," which had taken on a remarkably fine flavor, as we were assured by 'uncle Harvey,' by its having been so long 'rocked in the cradle of the deep ;' the stories of the olden time, Indian and pioneer incidents so pleas- antly interspersed with the "night-caps ;" all — all never to be forgotten memories — "Such tliiii.Sa have bcfti ami wero most ]ik';i.saiit." Under the name of Buena Vista the little hamlet of settlers, in the vicinage of the Emerson mill, was formally organized into a Township and in its first annual township election, of 1848, its destinies were swayed by a constituency of solid yeomanry, numbering five, composed of Curtis Emerson and Charles W. Grant Esquires, the two Messrs. Willey and Stephen Warner. iNDiAX .VXD i'K)>:;;ki; iirsTiiiJV. 31 This small settlement, whose destinies were soon to be united, by social and conmiercial ties and a common bond of interest and brotherhood, with those who, under the influence of that excellent gentleman, IN'oi-man Little, and his brother Col. W. L. P. Little, established themselves, somewhat later, upon what is now the busy mart and central part of East Saginaw, I'eceifed, in February 1855. their common franchises as a village and, in February, LS59, their charter as a city. The plulosophical and just tliinker and writer, De Tocqueville, whose "Democracy in Ametica" has *^aken its place among the standard works of the age upon governmental polity ; a work which as well honors his heart as his head, was desirous, upon his arrival in our country in 1881, to visit some of our outposts upon civilization's extreme frontier. He desired to look in upon some of our remote, primeval vailies, the then almost unoccupied cradles of future populations. He selected the valley of the Saginaw and we find him at that time, in trie consiminiation of his purpose, crossing froin the east side of that river to Saginaw City in a canoe, swimming his horse behind his fvail bark and remaining for a few days at the latter place to indulge himself in his philosophical observa- tions at that advanced outpost of civilization, then nuTubering within its limits less than forty people old and young. He says in a way which seemes, if the expression can be pardoned, like a jirophetic on-hok into the fature : "'In a few years these impenetrable forests will have fallen ; "the sons of civilization and industry will break the silence of "the Saginaw ; the banks will be imprisoned by quays ; its cur- "rent which now flows on, unnoticed and tranquil, through a "nameless waste, will be stemmed by the prows of vessels. — "More than one hundred miles sever this solitude from the great "European settlements and we were perhaps the last travelers "allowed to see its primitive grandeur."

BATTLE OF SKULL ISLAND. The following communication was prepared by William McCorinick, now an honored citizen of Portsmouth, wlilih we publish by request; — Jlesftrs. (jahitian lV Thomas^ frmti>: — \ modestly otf'er the follow- ing narrative for publication in your history of 8aginaw. Being one of the early pioneers of this valley brought up on the frontier with no advantages and no society except the hardy adventurer and the Indians, it must not therefore be expected to iindthe theme as interesting as if penned by a more skilfull hand. My father emigrated to the Valley when T was Init ten years old ; my asso- ciates were mostly among the Indians, which language I became almost as familiar with as my own ; and for a great many years was engaged m the fur trade. Daring this time I used to go up the different tributaries of the Saginaw to buy furs, and on nearly all such occasions I found indications that the Saginaw Yalle}' was inhabited by a different race of people prior to the present Indians. On nearly all the tributaries can be found mounds filled with human bones which I have opened for my own satisfaction and found theiy. lying in all directions showing they were thrown together without any regularity, upon which I Itecame satisfied thej' were killed in battle. This awakeneil in me a curiosity to find out what people they were, and where and what had become of them. I often questioned the Indians in regard to it, but they would invariably say that there were two or three very old Indians living on the Bay that could tell me all about it, telling me their names. Accordingly in one of my journeys to the bay I sought out the Indians in question, I think E • >4 r.ATlI.K or SKUM. 1S1,AM). this was in l^i)-!. 1 fouiul liiiii a very old man, I asked liim his ag:^. He said he thought he was a great deal over 100 years. His faculties were as bright as a man of T)!). I told him I understood he could give me the tradition of his race. He said he could as it was handed down to hira by his grandfather, who he said was older than he was now when he told him. For fear I should not get it correct I called to my aid an educated man who was [>art Indian, Peter Grewett, a man well known by the early settlers as an Indian trader and is still living I believe in Gratiot County, and has spent his life with the Indians, in in the fur trade, and was for many years in the empKjyment of the American Fur Company. The olil Indian (Puttaguasaiuine, which was his name) com- menced as follows: He said the ttawas, while the Monomonies w'as at the head of Green Bay in Wisconsin, and another tribe west of the Mississippi, which he called the Sons. The main village of the Socks stood on the west side of the Saginaw river just below where the resi- dence of Mr. Frank Fitzhugh now is, and opposite the mill of the Hon. N. B. Bradley. The Socks were always at war with their Chippewa neighbors on the north and the Pottawatomies on the south and also with other nations in Canada, until at last a Council Avas called con- sisting of the Chippewas, Pottawatomies, Monomonies, Ottawas and Six Nations of New York. At an appointed time they all met at the Island of Mackinaw^ where they fitted out a lai-ge army and started in bark canoes, and came down the west shore of Lake Huron. They then stole along the west shoi-e of Sagi- naw bay by night, and lay concealed during the day, until they arrived at a place about ten miles from the mouth of Sagiwaw, a place called Petobegong. Here they landed part of their BATTLE OF SKCLL ISLA>'D. army, while the rest ci'ossed the Bay and landed to the east of the mouth of the Sasjhiaw river in the night. In the morning both armies started np the river, one on each side, so as to attack both villages at once. The army on the west side attacked the main village first by surprise, and massacred nearly all ; the balance retreated across the river to another village, which stood near where the Court House now stands, near the ferry, in Portsmouth. At this time that part of the army that had landed on the east side of the river came up and a despar- ate battle took place in the vicinity of the residence of Wm. R. McCormick, that being the highest land and where they had attempted to fortify themselves ; and at the present time by digging in this hill you will find it full of human bones which were killed in that battle. Here they were again defeated ; they then crossed the river and retreated to Skull Island, which is the next island above what is now called Stone's island. Here they considered themselves safe as their enemies had no canoes and they could fortify themselves. But the next night after their retreat to the island the ice fi-oze thick enough for the allies to cross, which they did, when another massacre ensued; here they were all exterminated with the exception of twelve females. Since which time this island has been called Skull island, from the number of skulls found on it in after years. — The allies then divided, some going up the Cass, some up the Flint, others up the Shiawassee, Tittabawassee and so on, where there were ditferent bands focated. But the largest battles were fought on the Flint ; one about half a mile below the present city of Flint on the blufi'. Another Indian tradi- tionist says another reinforcement met them here coming through from Detroit, here there is a large number of mounds tilled with bones which can be seen at the present day. They then came down the river and fought another battle on the bluff about a mile above the present village of Flushing on the farm formerly owned by a Mr. Bailey. Here there is also a large number of mounds yet to be seen, and, if you shonld dig them open as I have, you will find them filled with human bones. — 36 i!Arri,v; ok >Kri.i. island. The next battle was fought about 16 miles below Flus-hiug on the fai-m formerly ooovijiicd by the late James McCormiek. There were several battles fought on the Cass, at what is now called the Bend t)i' 1 Bridgeport Center, ^\ here there was a fortifi- cation of earth work which was plainly to be seen -Jo years ago. The next important battle was fought on the Tittabawassee just above the farm on which the late James Frasertirst settled when he came to the Saginaw valley. This ditlers from the rest as tlie remains of the slain were all buried in one mound, and it is a very large one. After the extermination of the whole nation, with the excep- tion of the twelve females before spoken of, a council of the allies was then held, to know what should be done with them. Some were for torturing and killing, others for sparing their lives, finally it was agreed they should be sent west of the Mississippi, and an arrangement was made with the Sioux that no tribe should molest them, and the Sioux should be responsible for their protection, which agreement was faithfully kept. The conquered country, of which the present Sagina^w valley is a part, was then divided among them all as a common hunting ground. But a great many who came here to lumt never returned nor were ever heard of. It became the opinion of the Indians that the spirits of the dead Socks still haunted their hunting grounds and were killing off their hunters ; when, in fact, it was a few Socks who had escaped the massacre and still lingered around their hunting grounds watching for straggling hunters and killing them where ever an opportunity occurred. Ton-do-gong, an Indian chief who died in 1840, told me he killed a Sock while hunting when a boy, this must have been over SO years ago, and up to a few years ago the Indians still believed there was a Sock in the vicinity. They had seen the place where he had made his fires and slept. I have known them to get together and not hunt for several days for the reason, they said, there was a Sock in the woods, they had seen where he had slept : I used to laugh at them but it was of no avail, you could not make them believe otherwise. r.ATTTLK ()V SKUl.l, ISLAND. 37 But to go Itack to the Indian tradition, the country was con- sidered as haunted, and no more Indians came here to hunt, althougli game was abundant. Finally, it was converted into what would be termed among civilized nations a Penal colony ; every Indian who committed a crime would flee or be banished to the haunted hunting grounds (Sagmaw valley), to escape pun- ishment, for the Indian laws wei'e more severe and strict then, than now. This was long before we became degraded by coming in contact with the whites, said the Indian. The Chippewas becoming the n^o^^t numerous tinally their lang- uage predominated, and at the present time the Indians in the Saginaw valley do not speak, in all respects, the same as the Chippewas on I^ake Superior, from which they originally sprung; showing that the mixing of different nacions in the Saginaw val'ey has been the cause of the same. Put-ta-gua-sa-mine said his grand father told it to him when he was a boy, which was !>0 3-ears before, and that it had been handed down to his grand father from his ancestors, and was a custom with him to repeat it often to his people, so that the tradition or history should not be lost, and a successor was always appointed in case the tradi- tionist should die, that the history of the nation should not be lost, and be handed down from generation to generation. I have talked with two other old Indians on the same subject, and their tradition is precisely the same, word for word with one exception ; they say the battles on the Flint were fought by the army coming from Detroit. I have no doubt the above is a correct narrative, as much so as if it had been written at the time and handed down to us as a matter of history. I cannot close this rough narrative without a kind remember- ance to those early pioneers who shared our privations and our happiness. I say privations, they certainly were; for weeks and months there was not a barrel of flour in the valley; our nearest mill was Pontiac, and nothing but an Indian trail; we had to get to Flint the best we could, and then bring it down the river in canoes. But we always had one resource that never failed us, which was to pound corn in a mortar. If one had a few pounds 38 BATTLE OF SKCLl, ISLAXi). of flour he shared it with his neighbor, in fact they were more like relatives than neighbors. Perhaps it would be interesting to your readers to know who those pioneers were, or some of them: Gardner and Ephraiui Williams, Judge Jewett, James McCormick, who lived on the Flint, James Praser, Judge Daren- port, Judge Miller of Portsmouth, Thomas Simpson alias Lix-a- bo-ga, and Judge Stowe of Flint. But they are all passing away. PIONEER. SALT. Although the question as to the existence of a salt basin here was demonstrated as late as 18(30, yet it Avas agitated when the fouutry was quite new. It was known that many surface indica- tions or deer-licks were found, and most of these were called salt springs. When Congress in June 1836 passed an act providing for the admission of Michigan into the Union and for settling the Northern boundary of Ohio, it was among other things pro- vided that "all the salt springs within the State not exceeding twelve in number" with six sections of land adjoining each might be selected by the State, and in pursuance of this act, the Legis- lature of IMichigan by act of July lioth, 1836, authorized the Grovernor of the State to make the selection. Most of the lands were selected in tl\e Grand Eiver Valley, but one tract was selected on the Tittabawassee river at the mouth of Salt river, and by Act approved March ■24th, 1838, the State Geologist, (Douglas Houghton) was " authorized and directed as soon as " practicable at one or more of the State salt springs to com- mence boring for salt. " An appropriation of $3,000 was made to defray the expenses of the work. Pursuant to this direction Dr. Houghton selected one point in the south-west corner of Section 24, in township 15 North, of Eange 1 West, on the west side of the Tittabawassee river and about half a mile below the mouth of the Salt river, and commenced operations. His report will be found in Senate Documents for 1839, page 1 ; we make the following extracts: — " The brine springs of our State, like those of Ohio, Pennsyl- " vania, and Virginia, emanate from a rock which lies deep " being covered with a mass of rock and earthy matter which 40" SAl/r STATlSTirs. " (in order to procure salt water which can be economically " used) it is necessary to penetrate. In this respect they differ, " most essentially from those of the State of New York, for in " that State a simple earth excavation has proved amply suffi- "cient to ensure an abundant 8up])ly of water of a superior " quality. " 'I'he appearance of a salt spring at the surface is, of itself " very far from being evidence of the existence of water of value "below. It is only a single link in the chain of facts. " "The State salt \auCs on the Tittabawassee river, in Midland " County arc peculiarly digbly situated being a few miles below " the head of navigation of that stream, and en^bracing the " mouth of Salt river. A re-examination of this saline district, " showed it to be more extensive than had been supposed, and it "was in consequence of this, in (;onne(>ti<)n with the strength and " purity of its numerous springs, deemed a strong point for " commencing operations. " He states that he commenced active operations at this point about the middle of June, IS.'JM, and that during the remainder of the year there iiad been expended !t^l2,llS (j7 on this work. — That the shaft was begun on the bank of the river, and he adds: " It is proposed to sink this shaft ah*eady commenced to the " rock which may be estimated to lie at the depth of something " over 100 feet and to secure it carefully from the influx of fresh "water — having accomplished this, the salt rock, which will " probably be found at this point to lie at a depth of between five " and seven hundred feet, will be reached in the usual manner " and until this be fully accomplished, we cannot hope to arrive " at any satisfactory conclusion on the subject." In his report dated January (Jth, 1S40 ; (Senate Doc. 1S40, page 153), he says the indications at the shaft are such as to "add '' confidence to the hope before expressed of eventual succes.s, in " the object sought, if the plan pi'oposed be carried out." On the oth of January, 1842, he reports (House Doc, 1842, page 15) that the shaft has only reached a depth of 18U feet, as the result of nine months continuous la])or of the contractor. — SALT STATISTICS. 41 Great difRculties were experienced in sinking- the iron tubes in cousequeuce of the character of the materials passed through, consisting of clay, sand, gravel and boulders. He repeats his confidence in the final result; but looks for no beneficial results until a depth of at least 600 feet shall be reached. But notwithstanding his confidence, which was shai'ed by the Legislature, as appears from the report of the committees to who)ii his several reports were referred, when the appropriation was exausted the great expense of the work at such a distance froQi machine shops, and from a base of supplies, together with the financial difficulties of the State, was such that it ^vas thought best by the Legislature to abandon this shaft, at least, until some future period. During the several years that the work was in progess Dr. Houghton passed much of his time in Saginaw, and in his inter- course with the people, fully impressed them with the same confidence which he had in the existence of a salt basin in this valley. He informed them that the act under which the appro- priation was made, required him to commence on the State salt spring land, but that it was his opinion that the centre of the basin would be found at or near the mouth of Tittabawassee river, about two miles above the present site of East Saginaw. — And after the work was abandoned by the State, Hon. Norman Little and others continued firm in the belief founded upon their confidence in the opinion of Dr. Houghton, that a shaft had only to be sunk to the depth of from 600 to 1,000 feet to find strong briue at any point in this vicinity. But the experience of the State led them to believe that it was no idle task to make the experiment, and that whoever should take the risk would be obliged to invest a large sum, which, in case of success, would benefit his neighbors as much as himself. Thus matters stood until the session of the Legislature in 1859, Avhen a bill was in. troduced to appropriate $10,000 to aid in developing of salt springs in the Grand river valley. As soon as the pendency of this Bill was known at East Saginaw, a public meeting was called and the unjust discrimination in favor of Grand Eapids was ■{'2 SALT STATiSTK'S. bitterly cuiiiplained of. ]t was believed that the (-hances of miccess at Saginaw were at least equal to those of Grand Ilapid^. As the country liad become l)etter known about Saginaw, it was found that the surfact^ indications of the existence of brine were abundant, and were found existing in the gi-eatest profusion at about an equal distance from the point selected by Dr. Houghton as the centre of the basin, and almost in every direction from that centre. This meeting was held at the ofhce of Chas. Ij. Mott, Esq-, on the iJGth of January, 1859. And on motion of Hon. N. Little' Dr. Geo. A. Lathrop was called to the chair and W. Ij. Webber was aiipointed Secretary. Dr. Lathrop on taking the chair stated that from an examina- tion made by himself and from information from others he had no doubt of the correctness of the opinion entertained by Dr. Houghton, but as a large outlay would be required, and as it was^a matter of general and public interest, it Avas thought best to apph' to the Legislature for some encouragement. Other gentlemen present expressed gi'eat conlidence in the existence of strong brine, and a committee consisting of Hon. Nonnan Little, Morgan L. Gage, Dr. Latlu'op, and W. L. Webber, were appoint- ed to draft a petition to the Legislature and also a bill for such aid and protection as in the opinion of the committee the Legis- lature would be likely to grant. The committee believing the Legislature would be m(;re readily disposed to encourage the enterprise by a bounty contingent on the success of the experi- ment than by direct appropriation, proposed a bill on that prin- ciple, and the result was that the Bill to appropriate 110,000 for Grand Rap)ids was laid aside and this bill, with a few amend- ments, was passed and was approved Feb. 15th, 18r)9. The Act exempts all property vised in the business from taxation and provides for the payment of a bounty of ten cents per bushel on all salt nuide. Beleiving that the State Mould in good faith carry out the provisions of the l^ounty law, in case the company should siu> ceed, and induced to embark in the enterprise by their faith in SALT STATISTICS. 43 the result, on the 30th of March, 1859, a subscription book was opened for the formation of a corporation under the general manufacturing law of Michigan, for the manufacture of salt, said company to be called the "East Saginaw 8ail Manufacturing Company, " to have a capital of |>50,000 to consist of two thous- and shares. In two days the whole amount was subscribed, and on the IGth of April 1809 the articles of association were signed.

The two blocks were completed and the boiling of salt commenced the later part of June 1860, but no salt was packed until July 1860. From that date until July 1861 the total production of this Company was 10,722 Barrels, of 280 pounds each. Por the year ending July 1, 1862, the production of this Company alone was 32,250 barrels.

Present value of the salt investment in the Saginaw river district; nearly two and a half million dollars — about the same value it was estimated all the salt works in the Onondaga district would hold at the end of the year 1860. — [Report Supt. Onondaga Salt Springs, for 1859, p. 15.] "Fifty years of progress in the manufactui'e of salt in the Kanawha Valley did not eqaul the progesss made in four years in Saginaw Valley, and forty-two years progress at the Onondaga Salt Springs, the leading salt producing locality in the United States since 1797, did not equal the progress made there in five years. In 1860, a gentleman who was for some time Superin- tendent of the Onondaga Salt Company, and for years one of the SALT STATISTICS. 47 most careful, practical ami successful salt mauufacturers iu New York, who possessed the fullest knowledge of all matters per- taining to tlie question of markets as well as nianuiacture, gave it as his opinion that it woulil l»p at least five years from that time before the annual ](ro(lu,0<>l^ bbls — and that before then the demands of the Western luarhet would be increased to an extent which would require this amount in addition to the cus- tomary supnly from the Onondaga ('onqiany. How that pre- diction was verified in regard to the Saginaw manufacture, may be seen by reference to the foregoing table. The product for the od year, 18G2, being 1,215,000 bushels. The shipments of Sag- inaw Salt to Chicago, for li^04, the "5th year of manufacture," wereoi-o,S87 bbls, an excess of 120,887 bbls. over the entire receipts of domestic .salt in that mai'ket for 18()0, and 12,115 bbls. ;uore than were received there daring the past year from the Onondaga Company.

As at present (jarried on, the demand for \\ood for salt manufacture in the Saginaw Valley will require each year tlie timber otf from about 3,0(.'0 acres of land. LUMBEE, '^riie lumber tract conipi'ised in the Saginaw Valley is prob- ably the most extensive as well as the most valuable tract in the world. Its extent is measured by thousands of acres, and the quantity of timber is so great that it must afford an abundant supply for several generations to come. The quality of lumber is unsurpassed. In 1861 a quantity of deals were shipped to Quebec and those were of siich a quality as to call out the following from the Montreal Gazette: " The deals that have reached Quebec this season from the " district of country known as the Saginaw Valley, in INIichi- " gan, are allowed to be the best quality that has been placed on the "market." A portion of these deals were shipped from Quebec to Liver- pool, England, by Messrs. Farmer, DeBlaquiere & Deeds, where- upon their correspondent advised these gentlemen that the shipment was of the best quality ever offered in that market. The great advantages of the Saginaw Valley over other lum- ber districts, lies not alone in the superior quality of the article produced, but also in the peculiar facilities for manufacture and shipment. The numerous tributaries of the Saginaw river, reaching in their ramifications into the very heart of the heavily timbered districts, afibrd abundant avenues for the easy trans- portation of logs in rafts and floats to the mills. These being mainly located on the navigable portion of the river, vessels can take their cargoes of lumber direct from the mill docks, and thus a great saving in the cost of preparing for shipment as compared l.CMliKR STATISTICS. 49 with other localities where lumber is necessarily transported many miles on wagons or by Eailroad. Another advantage over many timber sections is that shipments of lumber may be made direct from the mills in the Saginaw Valley to all parts of the world'. Direct shipments have been made from Saginaw to nearly every Eastern, Central and Southern State, to California, Liverpool, London, France, tJie Sandwich Islands, Australia, Valparaiso, and many other foreign ports, and everywhere it stands unrivalled as to quality. The kinds of lumber pi'oduced are White Pine, or cork pine, as it is sometimes termed, straight grained and free from pitch, the most valuable, and from which llie upper qualities are made; Sapling I'ine which cuts mainly into fencing, flooring, common and lower qualities, and Norway Pine, firmer, but free from pitch, and peculiarly adopted to bridge and car building pur- poses, deck plank etc. Hemlock is also found in abundance and is worked into fencing and joists. Small quantities ©f White Wood, Black Walnut, Cherry, xVsh and Oak are also sawed for local use. The evident advantages of the Suginaw lumber district in quality and variety of the article produced, and its peculiar facilities for reaching the best markets, has attracted the atten- tion of heavy capitalists fi-om the east, and we may look for a i-apid and unparalleled developement of the resources of the locality. The Saginaw Kiver is the great outlet through which the vast quantity of lumber that enriches the acres of the lower penin- sula must find its way to market ; and along the shores of the navigable portion of this stream are located the numerous mills which prepare the lumber for transportation* to distant ports ; much of the business energy and capital engaged in the producbfon of lumber is also located on the Saginaw River, and these facts make it a matter of importance that fuller statistics should be given in this work. The Saginaw River, reaching from the village of Salina to the Saginaw Bay — about twenty-live miles — is navigable for G 50 i.umi!1;k statistics. the largest class of lako vessels. A few miles up i'rom wliero the stream ceases to be navigable for large boats, the River divides into four ehannols, known as the Cass, the Flint, the Shiawassee and the Tittabawassee rivers — the two former coin- ing in from the eastern [)art of the lower peninsula, the Shia- wassee from the soutliern, and the Tittabawassee from tiie north- western portion. These streams divide and sub-divide into numerous w.'itor courses, too slialhnx to be navigiible, yet sufilciently deep and wide to allow the froe transit of lo^s thr(uigh ihem tollic larger streams and to the mills. The four in'inciual river;? mentioned, which at their oontluence, form the Saginaw river, extend, in their numerous rannlications, throughout tiie greater portion of the Saginaw lumber region, and afford the most feasible out- lets for the vast supply of logs along their shores. Indeed there is no other natural outlet for the extensive lumber tract of the lower peninsula than tliat through the Saginaw valley, and whatever of lumber is taken by any other route to marlcet from this district, must be taken at such an additional expense as to make it far less profitable to the pro(lue(>r than if taken by this natural course. Such, then, is the relation of the Sagiiuuv Valley to the great lumber producing section of the lower peninsula of Michigan. Now, let us glance at the lumber section itself, and we may then form an estimate of its importance to the State at large, and of its intrinsic value to the district most intimately connected with its production and sale. The lumber region coiupriscs, in whole or in part, the follow- ing counties ; viz: Midland, •Isabella, Gladwin, Eoscommon, Huron, Salinae, La- peer, Genesee, Tuscola, Saginaw, Gratiot, Clare, Iosco, Ogemaw, Montcalm, Mecosta, Ingham and Livingston. The four first named are Avholy within the lumber section, v.hile the remain- der are in part covered with heavy timber lands. The whole region comprises several hundred srj[uare miles of territory. — This large section of land is drained almost exclusively by LUMBEll STATISTICS. 51 the tiibutaries of the SaginaAV river. It is calculated that pine territory will average five tliousand feet per acre and the estimate therefuro is that it^ will take over twenty j'ears to exhaust the pine at the present rate of consumption ; and, besides the pine timber, there is an immense amount of hemlock and oak. It was not until tlie year 1S48 that this began to bo looked upon as a lumber region ; and from that time until 1850 the business was not very extf^nsively carried on. In the latter year, with but seventeen mills in operation, the business began to start up, and its increase has since been rapid. Froni 1851 to 1857 large tracts of land, then in the hands of the Government, were taken up. and tlie business assumed mammoth proportions, A number of additional mills were put into operati(jn, increas- ing tlie whole number to thirty-three. The seventeen mills, oper;iting in 185(1 had a capacity of !25, 000,000 feet per annum. The thirty-three mills, in 1857, haut recently be- come a market hn' the best qualities of Saginaw lumber. 52 LUMUKR STATISTICS. As a matter of statistical information wo may state that in the year ISt);") the Tittabawassee river rafted out one hundred and fifty millions ; the ( 'ass, fifty millions ; the Flint, thirty mil- lions, and the Bad river — a tributary of the Shiawassee — twenty millions of feet of pine saw logs, board measure, besides which, many logs came from other sources. There are fourteen shingle mills on the J^aginaw, Cas-^ and Tittabawassee rivers, which made last year (ISGo) si.xty-five million shingles. Tliere are also a large number of stave fac- tories, and tlie quantity of staves pi-oduced is no small item in the aggregate of commercial wealth centering in the Saginaw valley.

Wo extract the following from the Saginaiv Daih/ Enterprise, in regard to the fish trade of the Saginaw River : " A new and important branch of trade has grown up in the Saginaw Yalhiy within the past two years, opening a market for an article of which our streams, bayous, and the bay shores, afford, as yet, an ample supply. We refer to the trade in Fresh River I'ish, which are shipped rtv fresh fish, undressed and un- salted, during the cool season. This ti-ade opened during the winter of 18G4-5, through the enterprise and negotiations of *' uncle" Harvey Williams, the pioneer, and still leading, fisher- man of this region. iJuring the early part of that season, !Mr. Williams was consulted by a member of a New York firin, who was investigating the practicability of arranging a fishing ground where white fish could be caught alive and kept in ponds, to be taken out as wanted. That scheme Mr. Williams considei-ed impracticable, as there was no suitable place on the bay shore for carrj-ing it out. l>ut while discus.'^ing this question, the idea <;f sending our common river fish to the New York nuirket was suggested, which Mr. Williams thought m/s practicable, and vol- unteered his services, free of charge, during that winter, to inau- gurate it. Consequently the fishermen in his emjjloy were offered four cents per pound, and the traffic commenced. The fish found a ready sale in the eastern markets, and preparations were made to go into it on a more e.xtensivo scale during the jiast winter. '' The fish are caught under the ice, by cutting a seriesjof holes and passing the nets under from one hole to another. — Various kinds of nets and seines are used, the manner of opera- ting being somewhat different with each. The fishing grounds are in the Saginaw River and bayous connected therewith, and in the bay; and perhaps one hundred men are engaged in it. — The kinds caught for this trade are the pickerel, pike, black bass, calico bass and perch. Bull heads and suckers are also caught, but only for the home market. The prices paid have been for pickerel, pike and black bass, G to ~l cents per pound ; for calico bass and perch 3 cents. " The fish are put up in barrels, frozen or nearly so, and then shipped by express to New Y'ork, Cincinnati, and other points ; for the trade has greatly e.xpanded, a wider market is found, and other operat rs are engaged in it. The express fi-eight is a cents I'G I1I^TS To TKAVKI.r.I;,*!. per pound, deducting the weight of barrels. A Detroit firm, liowover, ships to that point, as raih'oad freight. "The amount sliipped by the general dealers engaged in the business, from the 1st of January to the 1st of Mareh last, is as follows : Harrison & Co., IjO tons to Wm. Davis & 8ons, Detroit ; ir. Vv'iUianis, 2!> tons, to New York ; McKay, liraddock and others, abi>ut 8 tons. In all, 08 tons from loidrr the ice. " The develoi)m(-iit t)f tliis trade thus opens a market lor an article that scarcely brought a remunerating i)ri(;e, and for wliich thei'e was before only a limited local market. Hints to Tr.ATi:i,LKus. — The Flint cS: 1'kkk Makqukttk, the Flint & Holly and the DicTiterr & MiLWAiKrE Railways form a straight connection fromDionioiT to Saginaw. These roads by a compact entered into, between their several managers, run their cars, the same as if they were owned by one Company, over one and the same road ; thus avoiding any change between Deti'oit and Satrinaw. Passengers coming here from the East will find it to their interest, to purchase through tickets to East Hagiuaw, at the office of the Great Western Eailway Company, as these Roads run in connection, and a great deal of tiiiie ami trouble will thus be avoided. To Business Mln and Plioasukk Sekkeks. — To those about traveling Eastward either for pleasure or business, we will hazard a suo'gestion, as to which route is the safest, cheapest and most pleasant. In leaving Saginw Yalley, of course there is but one route; the Flint & Fere Marquette, Flint >S; Holly, and Detroit & Milwaukie Roads over which to get to Detroit. From Detroit take the Great Western Railway, of course ; as this is the only route that goes directly to SusrExsiON BiUDOEand Niaoaka Falls and passes through the ftxmous oil regions of Canada. To speak in tones of XJi'-'iise of this AAell known and well conducted route, would seem almost useless ; for every person must be aware that their track is the smoothest to ride over, and their cleanly Falace Car.s, the pleasantost, and the polite and assidu- HINTS TO TKAVELKBS. 57 ous attentions passengers receive from its employees, the most agreeable, of any route, to or from the West. This road in all its appointments is most perfect ; and its management faultless. — Take the Great Westekx route by all meariH! and we will guar- antee you will be delighted with your trip. To those going to New York and points in New England, we would especially re- commend the Erie Railway from Buffalo. This Road is the Broad gtuige line, with wide and roomy cai-s, magnificently finish- ed and furnished, like the "Great "Western" of Canada, you will meet with polite and attentive conductors, a smooth and easy track to ride over, luxurious sleeping cars on all night trains, and a safe, comfortable and speedy transit. A double track, having been laid almost the entire distance from Buffalo to New York, renders it less liable to accidents than other roads not so provided. Without any interest, further than the advance- ment of the comfort and pleasure of the traveller, we would in all candor, recommend the above routes. 58 ADVERTISEMENTS. H b H <1 <1 H <^ (!)

Sagiuaw City the (Jouuty seat of the County of Saghiaw, is situ- ated on the west bank of the Saginaw river, eighteen miles from Saginaw Bay, and one and one half miles below the confluence of the Tittabawassee and Saginaw rivers, and is navigable to this point fur vessels drawing not to exceed eight feet of water at its lowest stage ; a depth sufficient to admit the larger proportion of vessels used in the navigation of the great chain of Lakes with which it connects. A ridge of land extending upwards of two miles, running parallel with the river and a short distance from it, rises to a height of twenty-eight feet above low water mark, and affords the most delightful locations for the construction of private residences. That part of the city between this ridge and the river is used for commercial, manufacturing and mercantile purposes. A public square occupies the centre of the City upon which stands the Court House of Saginaw County ; an imposing edifice, and one of the finest of t.he kind in the State of Michi- gan; and also a brick building containing the County Offices, on each side of this square four handsome Churches are erected besides the Union School House, and the County Jail. The locality of the site of this city far surpasses that of any of its sister cities in the valley, and perhaps is unrivalled in that respect by any city in the west. In the year 1820 the United States Government established on the site now occupied by the central portion of Saginaw City a military post, which was maintained but a few years ; about the same time the American Fur Company established a trad- u lIISTOItY OF S.VtilNAW CITV. ing post at or near the stuckade erected by the Government, which was maintained until the year 184G. The affairs of the Cornpanj' for several years weie managed by Wm. McDonald who continued to reside at this place untd his death, which occurred in IS") I ; and also by Gardner D. Williams until the (■oinpany ceased to carry on operations here. At the time the Government took possession of the place for military purposes, the entire country was an unbroken forest. The stockade was constructed on the brow of the hill, near the present residence of the Hon. P. C. Andre, overlooking- the river, and dui-ing the time the troops were quartered at this place, they cleared the bottom land between the stockade and the river. The troops were finally withdrawn, and the military post abandoned by the Government ; the necessity of nmintaiuing a military post at this point no longer existing. As early as the year 1852, John Farly and Samuel McClusky caused a portion of the territory no^v occupied as the city, to be plotted by the name of the Town of Saginaw. But few lots were sold by the proprietors of said plot, and with the exception of a rude hut constructed by a half-breed known as Jack Smith, and a block house by Louis Campau in the same year, no improvements were made on the plot thus laid out. The block house erected by Campau was a novelty iu regard to the manner of its construction, every portion of it including the roof and floor (excepting the chimneys) hav- ing been constructed of timber hewn by the hand of the early pioneers. It was massive in its construction and withstood the ravages of time — a monument to the indefatigable industry of the early French pioneer —until 1862 when it was destroyed by fire. In 1835 Samuel Dexter caused another portion of the present site of Saginaw city to be plotted ; known as the plot of Sagi- naw City ; including the N. E. quarter of Sec. 26, Town N. E. 12, 4 E. But few sales of lots were made by Dexter ; and in 1836, he disposed of his interest to Mackie, Oakley & Jennison of the City of New York, who associated with them the late Nor- HISTORY OF SAGINAW CITY. 6 man Little, under whose auspices the present plot of the City of Saginaw was created ; embracing the Dexter territory, together with the whole of said section on both sides of Saginaw river, and portions of adjacent ter-ritoiy. This was the era of gigantic land and other speculations. Mr. Little moved to his new home from the State of New York and entered energetically on his mission -that of building up a city. He was the main spring — the propelling power in the movement — attracted by the wealth of the forests of the valley, its salubrious climate, the unrivalled water communication connecting the far interior with the great chain of Lakes ; and its fertility of soil — enthusi- astic and far-sighted, he then predicted the future growth and greatness of the valley, its eventual developement and position ; and although the financial revulsion of iH'il compelled a sus- pension of the improvements begun and in contemplation by him, resulting in his pecuniaiy prostration and removal from the place for a time, yet his conviction of the ultimate destiny of the valley was so strong, that he returned again in 1850 with abundant capital with which to mature his earlier plans. For- tuitous, circumstances compelled him to re-commence his laboi's on the opposite bank of the river at East Saginaw. Mr. Little lived to realize his earlier hopes and predictions in the fullest fruition and now sleeps beneath the sod of the valley he so long and ardently loved. During the year I80G the Webster House, two large warehouses, one on the river and one on Washington street, the residence of the late Gardener D. Williams, Hiram L. Miller, and several other buildings were erected. The crisis of 1837 paralysed to a great extent all progress for years, the city exhibiting comparatively little advance uatil 1850 and 1851. This may be said to have been the dark age of the Saginaw valley. Gloomy as it was, it did not stand still. The energy displayed by its early settlers, and those who followed them thither by no means slumbered, steadily though not rapidly, they pushed for- ward improvements throughout the city. School houses — the (Jourt house - and warehouses were put up, and the business of the place increased although to a considerable extent embar- 4 IirSTOKY Ol'- SAfilNAW (ITY rassed fur want of direct and t'ie(iueiit coiiiniunicatioii with tho outer business world. During this period Nelson Hniith, Esq., tlicu a resident of this city, constructed the first schooner permanently used in the carrying trade of this city — the Julia Smith, which fur a niimber of years was the principal medium for the transit of merchandise. An occasional vessel arrived from Detroit, but no regular line of communication was eataV)lished until the year 1S50. Among the first settlers of Saginaw City were Eieazer Jewett, Gardner D. Williams, Abram Butts, James J'usby, Harvey Williams, Elijah N. Davenport, Hiram L. Miller, Charles D. Little and James Eraser. The first white child born in Sagi- uaw County was Mary^ewett, the daughter of Eieazer Jewett, now Mrs. Dr. N. D. Lee, a resident of this city. The first male white child was Wm. W illiams, son of the late Gardner D. Wil- liams, who also is a resident. The first event took place in March, lSo4, the second in March 18i)5. Both were bom with- in the present corporate limits of the city of Saginaw. At the date last mentioned the families of the persons referred to formed the principal portion of the white population of the valley. A few adventurous French voyarjers from Detroit and Canada attachcii of the American and English fur C'ouipanies, squatted in various localities upon the river, engaged principally in hunting and Indian trading. The Chippewa Indians at this early period were almost the sole possessors of the|^ valley, and in the year 1882 numbered some 3.500 souls. The abundance of game in the forests of the valley, of the fish in its rivers, and the romantic scenery, made the present site of this City and Greenpoint adjacent thereto, a favorite resort and camping ground, and was called by them Ka-pay-shaw-wiuk, signifying the Great Camp- ing Ground. In the year 1887 the suiall-pox committed fearful ravages among this band of Saginaw Indians, carrying off nearly two-thirds of their number. The principal remnant of this band have been removed from the valley and now occupy lands in Isabella county where they are gradually passing from HISTOKY UJ- SAGIX.VW CITY. a semi-civilized state into a higher grade of intellectual and moral being. The river bank in the central part of the' city was set apart and reserved by them as a place of sepulture for their dead. The' rude hand of progress in the developement of the present higher order of things temporal, has not spared the quiet repose of the illustrious Iiulian dead, who for so many years has slept " the sleep that knows no waking "' beside the much loved stream ; and the spade and pick of the modern vandal, as he makes excavations for the foundation of some stately ware- house, manufactory or other improvement, throws up to the eyes of the curious spectator the bones of these once swarthy braves and their biirial paraphanalia with as little remorse as the grave digger in ITamlet. "Alls poor Yo irk." Our fellow townsman. Dr. J. N. Smith, has formed from these exhumations a considerable anatomical collection, < and has ar- ranged the same in such a manner that reflects credit upon him. The inhabitants of the valley at the present day can form but an inadequate idea of the toil, sutfering and privations of its pioneers at tlie time of its early settlement. No steamer then disturbed the surface of the Western Lake or Eiver, no steam whistle broke the '' expressive silence" of the broad expanse of prairie and forest. The Indian roamed the monarch of the val- ley ; its stillness broken only by the crack of his rifle. The sur- face of its silver streams disturbed by nothing save the' noise- less dip of his paddle, and stealthy progress of his canoe as he followed his precarious calling, in search of food or furs. — No road save the Indian trail winding its devious way from set- tlement to settlement, then far apart, through swamps at times almost impenetrable, and streams unbridged and frequently im- passable. The North star and the pocket compass at all times were more reliable as indicating the route the traveller desired to pursue than the "blase" or the "trail." Obstacles such as these were sufficient to deter all save the most hardy and resolute of purpose from seeking a home in this (3 HISTORY OK SA(ilNA\V CITY. now populous valley. But to the men whose names we have herein given, as the early pioneers, these obstacles presented no terror ; men in whose vooabulary there was no suclx word as "fail." These with their equally indomitable wives, penetrated the almost impassable swamps, forded turbid and swollen streams upon Indian ponies or sleds drawn by oxen ; or trusting them- selves to canoes upon streams obstructed at every turn by masses of impenetrable drift-wood, making long and tedious portages a necessity ; camping out in the forest night after night, made cheery by the light of the camp fire, illuminating its green arches, which afforded them their only shelter from the fervor of the mid- day sun, or the fury of the storm. The settlement thus begun was gradually increased. The ring of the hardy woodman's axe usurped the sound of the crack of the Indian rifle, and the set- tlers log cabin the site of the flndian wigwam. Slowly but steadily the forest shrank back from the river before the steady assaults oF the pioneer; and the place of worship, the school house, the store and the workshop soon became realities — fixed fdcfs — The "latch string liung out" on the door of every house or cabin ; hospitality was the rule — the want of it the exception, A small remnaent of this grand pioneer stock, the original thereof, still remain in and about Saginaw City, enjoying the well earned fruits of their early labors, and now as then, dispensing with the dignity of maturer age, that genuine charity and hospi- tality which from early habit has become as it were a rule of actions with them. Innumerable are the blessings enjoyed by the citizens, not only of this city but of the adjoining country ; the result of the admirable foresight, and indomitable courage and energy of the pioneers of this valley, a greater portion of whom have passed away. To the greater portion of the population of this county they are but little known. Those who survive and knric them in days "lang syne," will not cease to cherish the memory of the warm and open-hearted hospitality — the open-handed liberality — the genuine man and womanhood of the pioneers of Saginaw valley. iriSTOKY OF SAGINAW CITY. I In 18")0 the City of Saiiinaw contained six wholesale and re- tail stores, five carpenter and joiner shops, three boot and shoe shops, three blacksmith shops, one bakery, one steam saw milJ, one paint shop, three hotels and three grocery and provision stores and two other places of retail trade. Hon. Gardner 1). Williams was the first Mayor elect. He was re-elected the succeeding year to that office. His death occur- ing before the e.xplration of his second term, Hon. Hiram L. Miller then liecorder of the city acted as Mayor until the elec- tion of Geo. W. Bullock, Esq., who held the office for two con- secutive terms. Hon. John Moore sxicceeded Geo. W. Bullock, Esq., and was re-elected, P. C. Andre, Esq., was elected for the ne.\t term, followed by Stewart B. Williams who was succeeded by the present mayor, \Vii].. M. Miller, Esq. The population of the city was 586. Up to the year 1857 the City of Saginaw formed a portion of the township of Saginaw, a City charter was granted by the Legislature of the State which went into operation in the spring of that year. The projection of the plank road from East Saginaw to Flint, and its construction in 1851 — thus completing an available com- munication to Detroit — infused new life into every department of trade throughout the valley. A semi-weekly line of steam- ers plied regularly during the season of navigation between this place and Detroit, and two steamers between Saginaw City and Bay City. The population of the city and business in all its various branches rapidly increased. In 1851-2, the Union School House was constructed, five churches commenced, and three of them completed. The principal business up to this period, and up to 1860 and 1861, was the manufacture of lumber, which during the two years prior to that time had attained great importance and formed the principal business not only of this city, but of the entire valley. S IIISTOKY OF SAfilNAW CITY. The discovery of salt in ISOO, and its almost immediate devel- opment, gave additional impetus to trade. The second salt well in the valley was sunk and went into successful opei'ation in this city. The sinking of this well and one at East Saginaw, ren- dered success in the manufacture of salt no longer doubtful. — Capital, and busines men from all parts of the country were at- tracted hither by the prospect of success then presented and assured. All branches of trade were beneticially affected thereby, stores, shipyards, steam and other manufacturing establishments, sprung up as if by magic. The capital of the city increased during the three years succeeding 18()0 one hundred fold, the population of the city doubled, brick stores, large manufacturing establish- ments, tasteful dwellings and Churches were erected The Saginaw River was alive with commerce ; regular steam lines of commu- nication established between this City and Detroit, Buffalo, Cleve- land, Toledo, Chicago and Grooderich ; and lines of stages to all the towns in the interior. So large an accession to the wealth and i)opulation of the City, enabled the government of the city and its inhabitants, to expend large sums in the improvement of streets ; laying side walks and drainage of the surrounding ccmntry. At present the streets throughout the entire city are in most excellent condition ; miles of side-walk leading to every mans' door, renders pedestrianism at all times and in all weather no unpleasant task. Two additional brick school houses have been erected, and a third at an estimated cost of § iO,O0O is to be commenced the ensuing season. Besides the facilities created for education under the general laws of the State, there are several private schools uf a high order of merit ; The IJiverside Seminary now in successful operation taking the lead. A Street Eailway from this City to East Saginaw has been completed and is now in successful operation. Steam ferry Boats during the season of navigation ply regularly between the two places. The city contains five Hotels; but these are inadequate to ac- commodate the travelling community, and the construction of a sixth has already been commenced by William H. Taylor, Esq., IlISTOKY OF SAGIXAW CITY. on the corner of Court aud Ilamilton streets, which, judging from the design of the architect, promises to be one of the largest and finest structures in the State. The city contains seven Churches, viz : Presbyterian, Metho- erity of the town, and done a great deal in an uno.stentatious manner for its material advance- ment. He was unassuming in his manners, but genial and affa- ble in disposition. He represented Saginaw County in the State Legislature, in 1846. He ran against the late Hon. James Gr. Birney, then living at Lower Saginaw, now called Bay City. — He was a firm supporter of the Episcopal (Jhurch, and shortly previous to his death was largely instrumental in the erection of St. John's church, on Washington Street. Few men had more friends than the subject of this memoir, and his loss was felt to be a severe affliction to the whole community. •' Death loves a shinine: mark." 12 HISTORY OF SAGINAW CITY. The House Fctrxishinr Emporium; of Elliott & Harrison, at East Saginaw, contains all the various articles in the way of China and Crockery ware that are known to the trade. In ad- dition to these the stock of Carpets, Oil Cloths, Mirrors, Plated Goods and Cutlery, kept at their establishment, is desirable in style and low in price; and the demands of the trade, both wholesale and retail, are met by the proprietors in a way that gives universal satisfaction. The Saginaw City Railroad, termi- nates on Water Street, very near the Emporium, which affords a convenient mode of access for residents of Saginaw who desire to purchase supplies of House Furnishing Goods. Benjamin Geer commenced business in this city November, 1864. He occupies a fine, large store, and keeps the largest and best selected stock of goods in the city, consisting of Dry Goods, Groceries, Boots and Shoes, and numerous et ceteras. Mr. Geer's reputation as a Merchant, and a fair and upright dealer, stand above reproach, by means of which he has secured a large and lucrative patronage. Mr. Geer sells his goods at a very Idw figure, having adopted the principle of ''Cj[uick sales and small profits," and is always pleased to show his stock Avhether a pur- chase is made or not. Give him a call. ST. JOHN'S CHURCH. In the year 1836, there could have been found in all the Sag- inaw Valley, but three communicants of the Protestant Episco- pal Church — Mr. and Mrs. Busby and Mrs. Amanda Eichman. Not till the year 1841, was there a service of the church held in what then constituted Saginaw County. During that year the Rev. Daniel E. Brown, of Flint, visited the new settlement, and for several years he held occasional services here. At length in 1851 a parish was organized, and the Rev. Joseph Adderly was called to take charge of the same. He was succeeded in 1852, by the Rev. Daniel B- Lyon, who remained but one year. In 1853, the Rev. V. Spaulding was called to the Rectorship. The number of communicants reported to the Diocesan Convention that year was eleven. On the 20th February, Bishop McCoskry niSTOKY OF SAGINAW CITY. 18 made his first visit to this parish,and on the 11th April, following he returned to lay the corner stone of the present church edifice. In June, 1858, the Rev. V. Spaulding resigned ; the number of couimunicants having now increased to twenty-four. In the following year the Rev. Edward Magee accepted a call to the Rectorship. A debt of ^iOO had hitherto prevented the conse- cration of the church, but this indebtedness being liquidated, on the 9th May, 1860, Bishop McCoskiy consecrated the church by the name and title of " St. John's." In the year follow- ing, the Rev. Mr. Magee tendered his resignation ; three commu- nicants having been added during his pastorate. He was succeeded in 1 862, by the Rev. Osgood E. Fuller, who remained three years; the number of communicants having meanwhile almost doubled, there being no less than fifty- one reported to the Convention in 1865. The present Rector is the Rev. John Leech, and the number of communicants is eighty-eight. The church has attained its present growth with but very lit- tle assistance from abroad. During his incumbency the Rev. Y. Spaulding went East, and procured 1500 to assist in the erection of the church edifice, and by the advice and with the consent of the Bishop, the late Charles L. Richman solicited aid for the same object in several of the larger cities in the State of New York. He there obtained the sum of 1600, together with the baptis- mal bowl and communion sett presented through him, by the late Mrs. Ebenezer Hale, of Canandaigua, N. Y. The bible and prayer book, still in use, are the gift of our late lamented towns- man, George W. Bullock. Through the commendable exertions of the ladies of the congregation, a new bell will in a few weeks send its sweet music from the tower of St. John's, along the rich and busy valley of the Saginaw. EIRST PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH. The First Presbyterian Church of Saginaw City, the oldest church of the Saginaw Valley, was gathered by the ministerial 14 TlrSTOKY OK SAfilNAAV (ITY. labors of I?ev. TI. L. Miller, during the years 18^6 and 1837, and organized March 1st. 18:)S, with the following members : Norman Little, Jane A. Little, Elizabeth Rice, Thomas Smith, Wm. Ileartwell, Mrs. Harvey Williams, T. ]j. FTuu-o, Mrs. T. L. Howe, Hinds Smith, Mrs. Julia Smith, Mabel Terrill, ]\[rs. H. L. Miller. An occasional circuit rider of the Methodist Church had vis- ited this region prior to 1836, holding an isolated religious ser- vice, but the labors of Mr. Miller i.-onstituted the fir.st regular permanent ministry of the Saginaw Valley. Failing health compelled him to terminate his ministerial service in 1839, but continuing to reside here, his name and influence has been iden- tified with the entire history of the church of which he was the founder. His successors in the ministry and the periods of their service, have been as follows : Eev. C. F. Foot, stated supply, .January, 1840, to i\fay, 1S40. Bev. Harvey Hyde, stated supply, March, 1842, to May, 1844. Rev. C. H. Baldwin, stated supply, January, 1840, to July, 1847. Rev. Louis Mills, stated siipply, November, 1848, to July, 1849. Rev. D. M. Cooper, Pastor, June, LSol, to April, 18r)9. Rev. D. H. Taylor, stated supply, March, 1861, to March, 186;">. Rev. J. W. Hough, Pastor, July, 1865. The chui'ch was oi'ganized as a Presbyterian church, but dur- ing the first years of its existence was not under the care of any ecclesiastical body. In 1842, its foi'm of government was changed to Congregational, and it was connected successively with the Eastern and the Genesee Conferences. In 1853, it re- turned to the Presbyterian polity, and became a member of the Detroit Presbytery, being transferred to the Saginaw Presbytery upon the constitution of that body in 1856. While it was a Congregational ( 'hurch, its deacons were Geo. Davis and Albert Miller. Upon its return to the Presbyterian polity, H. L. Miller, Robert lire and Geo. Davis, were ordained ruling elders, and Alansou Griffis, deacon. Subsequently Geo. Davis having deceased, and Robert Ure and Deacon Griffis hav- HISXOKY OF SAtilNAW CITY. 15 ing removed, Timothy Barnard and \Vm. A. Carpenter were or- dained ruling elders, and D. ¥. Mitchell, deacon. Mr. Miller first preached in a cai-penter shop, UDon the site of the house now occupied by Capt. Richman, corner of Washing- ton and Ames Streets. Subsequently in the Post Office, nearly opposite the hardware store of 1). II. Jerome & Co. ; at times in the office of Norman Little, then on corner of Washington and Madi.son Streets, and for a period in a building known as " Me- chanics' Hall, standing on the site occupied by the house of E. Briggs; on Washington Street, since removed and now occupied as a dwelling by V. P Woodruff, corner of Payette and Ames Streets. In 1887, was built the first public building in the Sag- inaw Valley, serving the manifold purpose of church, school house and court room. It stood in the rear of the present court house, and on the erection of that building was removed to the site now occupied by the Jail. This building now occupied by the Metho- dist clergyman as a parsonage, served as the place of worship of the Presbyterian Church until the erection of the present house of worship. This edifice, on the corner of Court and Harrison Streets, was the first building in the Saginaw Yalley set apart to the purposes of religious worship. Its erection began in the spring of 1851, and was completed in the autumn of 185:2. The cost of the building was a little more than $3,000. Its architect was H. C. Weston. Its completion at that early day when the church was still feeble, was chiefly due to the liberality and un- tiring eflbrt of its first minister and his lady, who stili live to be- hold the fruits of their early labors and sacrifices in its behalf. It was dedicated December I'Jth, 1852, the service being- preached by Rev. E. P. Kellogg, of Detroit. Measures are now in progress for its enlargement to a capacity suited to its present needs, with the addition of a conference room, with rooms for Sunday School and Pastor's use. The whole number of members connected with the church since its organization is 175. Its present membership 100. IG HISTORY OF SAGINAW CITY. METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH. Kev.

GERMAN EVANGELICAL LUTHERAN CHURCH OF THE HOLY CROSS. The hist church built in Saginaw City was the church of the German Evangelical Lutheran Congregation, unaltered Augsburg Confession — " the Church of the Holy Cross." It was built in the year 1851, and enlarged in 1859. The congregation was organized in the year 1848, by the Rev. F. Sievers, of Frankenlust, Saginaw County. The services were held in private houses and in one of the Court House rooms till 1851. The congregation belongs to the " German Evangelical Luth- eran Synod of Missouri, Ohio and other States," and strictly ad- heres to the unaltered Augsburg Confession and all the other HlSTOllV Ol' SAGIXAW CITY. 17 symbolical books, as contairied in the " Book of Concord," pub* lished in 1580. The first regular Pastor was the Rev. (3ttuiar Cloter. His in- stalment took place at one of tlie Court House rooms. In 1857, he received and accepted a call of Synod to work as a mission- ary among the Indians, (Chippewas) in the State of Minnesota. His successor was the Rev. T. A. Hugli, who two years after- wards accepted a call of the Lutheran congregation in Detroit. Then the Rev. Martin Gunther, former!}' of the State of Wis- consin, was elected Pastor ; he was installed on the fourth day of March, 18G0, and is the present Pastor. The congregation has a parsonage, two buryiTig places and two parish schools. (3wing to the increase of scholars, a third teacher wiU be called as soon as possible. The number of voting members at present are eighty-seven. MASONIC. Saginaw Valley Lodge of A. F. and A.

The discovery of salt in the Valley caused this desirable loca- tion to be bought, and during 'GO and '01 five companies were formed to operate at this point. In the summer of 1S02 a vil- lage plat was made by Messrs. Curtis, Ward & Gillett, who were then owners of the larger part oi the Reservation; since which. time the Village has had a steady* healthy growth, until in Feb- ruary 1860, when the eastern portion of the town of Saginaw, including the village of Carrollton, was detached from the Town of Saginaw and erected into a new town by the name of Car- rollton. A Post office was established at this village April 1804, bearing the name of the village, and the present Post Master, 0. E. Gillett, was appointed to the office. A Presbyterian Society has been organized at this place and the Rev. M. Gelston is the Pastor. The coming season it is the intention to build a Union School House of brick, in the center of appropriate grounds. Township Officers. — Supervisor, Charles E.

Comino- here from Detroit, strangers find little to admire in the suburbs of the city, that surronud the depot at the foot of Franklin street — they have been hurried over miles of well-tdled land, and gi-eat stretches of timbwr ; past lakes and streams, and low hills ; fields ornamented with farm products ; great farm houses and little pioneer cottages ; piles of lumber, shingles and staves; — past these they have been carried, and are glad to hear the shrill whistle of the locomotive as it dashes in at the station. Here we meet our stranger friends, as the citizens of East Sagi- naw ai'e always glad to do, and show them about the City. Let us while our compauions are finding seats in the comfort- able street cai-s, just glance at our surroundings. Close at hand are the usual unattractive out-buildings connected with the Rail Road station. Before us is a better class of houses rising higher as the distance increases towards the business center of the City. A few prominent structures rise above the rest; at our right the masts and coi'dage of vessels in the river are in full view ; away at our left and partially behind us, the original forest ti-ees stand in quiet dignity ; before us, the clean dry \\ alks lined with younii shade trees invite our steps down Franklin street. We will decline the tempting promenade, for the Conductor's whistle calls us to the street car. The ready Jehu gives the signal to his waiting team and we sweep around a curve from Franklin street into the center of Washington avenue, and move on through the busy street. Lining our route and along the parallel avenues are n)any fine dwellings, fresh with paimt and wearing a pleasant, home look. Of course, we will get out at Genesee street and stop, if you plea.se, at the 1 HISroKY OK KASr S\i;lNAW. l?ANCi!oi'r, wliDsi^ t)\vi;rin;;' hight iiiid iinpo-^iHg ;q»[)i';ii-aiici^ ciiii- iiot fail to attract the attention of every visitor to the A'aUey, or we will partake of the "good cheer" at the Evkrktt. whose massive architecture to be adunred needs only to be seen. — Having rested and otherwise recuperated nature for the occasion, let us set about learning something of this anomaly, a substant- ial city in almost a wilderness. We have seen in the oil regions of Pennsylvania cities springing up like mushrooms, and with little moj'e permanance or vitality in them; we have seen great cities planted in the rich mining districts of ovir far- western ter- ritories ; and we have seen s[)eculators' cities of only paper existence ; but this is indeed an anomaly, a substantial city con- taining over eight thousand inhabitants - a city built of the most enduring material, and in a rich and costly style of architecture, set down in the midst of alumberingregionwherethe undisturbed stumps of the original forest trees, and even some of the trees themselves ornament the suburbs and wntinci the corporate boundaries. Here are no signs of an ephemeral existence ; these structures that wo admire have not come up like Jonah's gourd to be overturned by the breath of an east wind — to be abandoned when the pioneer company finds a dry well ; or to be forsaken wlien word comes that a richer lode has been discovered in a neighboring gulch ! Nothing looks that way in these streets, and the eager enquiry as to what is the foundation of all this apparent prosperity, is answered by the assurance that Saginaw Luml)er, Saginaw Salt, and Fish from the Saginaw waters have each a world-wide i-eputation and a correspondingly extensive sale. "We may get some idea of the extent of the city of East Sagi- naw by viewing it from the roof of one of the highest buildings, though we must bear in mind, that only a dozen years ago all the region within the scope of our vision was almost untrodden by the first pioneers of civilization. Prominent in the plain that stretches away on every side are the public school build- ings of the city, erected and operating under a free school system. They are ornaments of which the citizens of East Sagi- HISTORY ()F KAST SAGINAW. .) iiaw arc justly' proud, and tlie < 'entral t^tructurc is as fine aa edifice lV)i' its use as f:an be found in the west. The spires of a half dozen clmrehes point their Avorshiping congiegations lieavemvard. Within the circle of our vision we can count forty-eight chimneys and smoke stacks indicating as many manu- factories of lumber, salt, shingles, stave.s, &c. The Saginaw river, stirred by the incessant turmoil of the busy tugs, Hows steadily on in its northerly course. Great vessels and snuall on-es lie at their docks discharging or receiving freights. The frecjueut screams of the tug whistles drown the busy claugov of the nearest mills, and silence the rumbling of the various street cars. The great drav in the city Itridge swings at the summons of an ap2)roaching tug that pulls after it a heavily ladeu lake vessel. The scene on the river docks and in the streets is metropolitan. Lookiug away to the horizon the sky seems to settle down 1o the fringe of forest trees that environs the land.^cape. Within the circle on the banks of the river, are the thrifty groups of Salina and 8A(iiNAw Cjty, and these are joined by street liail Eoads as well as by river communication with this city. Three fine bridges span the broad river within our view and serve to accomodate the continual travel from shore to shore. In the busy streets almost any cosmopolitan sojourner can find a fellow citizen. Uei-e are representatives from the four tjuarters of the globe, and from the "islands of the sea;" yet the everlasting omnipresent Yankee is in the ascendancy, and will ever be so. The aboriginal ten- ants come in from their camps, not many miles distant, to look upon the growing power of their pale-faced successors, and tread with noiseless stops the thoroughfares Avhich have grown up from their former hunting trails. The squaw carries her grim papoose along where it can look on the wooden image of its paternal progenitor that holds out a bunch of Havanas, in front of some tobacco store. But these aborigines are destined to stop but a little longer iir the vicinity. The encroachments of lumbermen, salt makers, and settlers must soon drive them from their scanty foot-hold, to giveixiom for the march of improvement which is making the valley teem with life and genuine pros- 4 IlISTOrvY OK KAST SA(;IXAAV. ])orit\. Uaviii^ tiiki'U as it were a "1)il'(^^s' oye g-laneo" at the city, let lis go back to its early history. The City of East iSaginaw lies on the east bank of the Sagi- naw Eiver, about sixteen miles from its mouth. The original name was Tio-wa-lia-ka-ning meaning the ''Butternut Place." The substantial city of to-day with its eight thousand inhabi- tants, busily engaged in tlie transaction of a great variety of business, has little resemblance to the wild lot that was plotted in 1850 and then known as the "Hoyt Plot." This Plot com- prised all that portion of the present city north of Hoyt street. At that date (IF ;">()) the only buildings were a small cottage located about two blocks south of where the Bancroft House now sto.uds, which served the double purpose of church and school house; a board shanty on the present site of the Bancroft house; and a log house standing near the Bridge in the middle of what now is Geneseie street, and was occupied by Leon Sney, an Indian interpreter and trader. In the fall of the same year a frame dwelling house was erected by C W- Grant on "Water street, north of Genesee, which he still occupies as a residence. George Allison was one of the earliest settlers, having come here in 1S50, an. liess for ^C>U{). Some idea of the advance in the value of i-eal e.5tate may 1h; ol>t lined ))y the assurance that this lot, iirst purchased by iir. Caulkins for ^')U would to-day find ready sale for •!^1'2,U(K>, exclusive of iiuildin^^s. Tile first store was kept by Alfred M. Jloyt and James Little, son of Hon. Norman Little. Their buildin<^ was a frame struc- ture, known as the "]^lue Store," located on the lot now occupied by livingston & Co., corner of (lenesee and Water streets. — Messrs. Hoyt & Little kept a general stock of Dry Goods, Gro- ceries, Crockery, Boots and Shoes, and the nameless et ceteras that go to make up the assortment in a country store. They found it necessary in their business to Employ an interpreter tf) iacili- tate their traffic with the Indians. The "Blue Store" was after- wards enlarged and re-modeled in 1851, by N. Blackmar, and called the Irving House. ]\Ieuzo C. Stevens became the land- lord and kept a good hotel as his patrons were free to testify. — The Irving house was sometime afterwards destroyed by fire. In the fall of 1851 a store was opened by W. Jj. P. Little & Co. in a two story wooden building on the river bank, where Bliss, Janes & Co. now do business. Their sales the first year amounted to ninety thousand dollars, and afterwards increased to two hundred and fifty thousand dollars. This store furnished goods for a circuit of country one hundred miles in extent. The store was afterwards destroyed by lire. A ferry was established in 1851 by E. N. Davenport, consisting of a scow or flat boat pro- pelled across the river by a rope and poles. The same year a public school building was erected on the corner of Hoyt and Jefi'erson streets, at a cost of $15,000. The Union school system was adopted ; and in this the proprietors of the town exhibited their usual good judgment, making the expense of education a charge upon the property of the people at large. Several auxil- iary schools were organized and suitable buildings erected as the growth of the city called for them. In 185li, a flouring mill was erected on the present site of the Mayflower mills at a cost of $30,000, by Jesse Hoyt. The following year the Gal- laher mill (saw mill) was erected ; and the next year the msTllRT OF KAST SAGINAW. / Holland mill, also a liuuber mill, was built by T. Whitney. — Messrs. Duvfey & Atwater ex-ected a mill the same year. The old Blue null having been, burned down, Messrs. Davison and Whitney c;mstructed one on its site sometime in 1854, and in the succeeding year another mill was built by Wm. F. Grlasby. The ('ity (flouring) mills on Genesee street were erected in ISGO. The present proprietor is J. S. Stevens. The first eliurch edifice was erected on Washington street i in lcS54, bythe Methodist Episcopal Society. The l^utheran Church was built the same year. The German Methodist Society ne.xt erected a church on Warren street, in 1855. The same year the C\»ngregational Society built their church on Washington street. The Catholit- church was erected in 1SG4. The Protes- tant Episcopal, in 1865. Up to 1SG4 the river had been crossed by means of a clumsy ferry, but during this year a stock company was organized by the citizens of East Saginaw, and a bridge built from the foot of Genesee street, at a cost of $20,000. The plan is accord- ing to Brown's patent and it is a fine looking as well as substan- tial structure. Its length is a little more than 700 feet and it is furnished with the requisite draiv to accommodate the larger class of vessels navigating the river. About one mile further up the river, at the foot of Bristol street, a second bridge was built in the following year by the citizens of Saginaw. Alfred M. Hoyt erected the first dock and ware-house. Thn first boat was a stern wheel steamer named the Buena Vista, and was commanded by Capt. Addison Mowry. The steamers "Magnet" and '-Reindeer' were afterwards built by Jesse Hoyt. The first sail vessel was built by the same gentleman and called the "Jesse Hoyt.'" The first Banking house was established by Col. W. L. P. Little, in 1855, in a small wooden building on the site of what is now tl:e Exchange Block on Genesee street. Another Bank- ing house was opened in 1803, by Pay, Bliss & Co., under the title of the "Valley Bank." The First National Bank was organized in 186.3 with a capital of $100,000 ; J. T. Judd, Presi- ^ /risTOKV OF i;ast SAoryAvr. dent, aiul ('. K. Robinson (ynshier. Col. W. I;. P. Little con- verted his estiiblislinipnt ii>to a National Bank January 1st, ISGG, with a capital of %200,000 under the name of the "Mer- chants' National Bank." Tlie Banking House of C. K. Robin- son & Co., \va« established in Januai-y, lSl)(;>. The fact that so large a banking capital is requi\-ed speaks well for the business transactions of the city. The U. IS. Land otfice svas renioved from Flint to this city in isr)7 through the iniluenee of Moses B. Hess who became the first Register, and Wm. L. P. Little the first Receiver. By an Act of the Legislature, Feb. 13th, li^So, East Saginaw became an incorporated village. The first election under the village charter occurred in April, L^So, at Avhich Mr. Norman Ijittle was chosen President, and Mr. Chas. 1). Mott, Recorder. The need of a better class of hotels was early felt, and in 1860 the Bancroft House, one of the most princely establishments in the State, was built at a cost of #90,000. It was constructed on a plan so much in advance of its surroundings that the project seemed unwarranted and extravagant, but the growth and [)rosperity of the young city was so rapid that the vast structui'e had soon to 1)0 enlarged, and this enlai'gement had to be repeated, so that at this date it is a mammoth structure, and justly entitled to the high reputation it bears. The first proprietor was Henry Hobbs, who succeeded in establishing the reputation of keeping the best hotel in Michigan. Mr. Henry Hobbs was succeeded by G. W. Wesley, the present proprietor, who fully sustains the reputation gained by his predecessor. The further growth of the city soon demanded another large hotel and in lSG;j the "Everett House" was erected at a cost of $41,000. This building, though vast in its proportions, soon had to be enlarged to accommodate the in- creased wants of the traveling commiiuity, and stands a splendid monument to the enterprise of its projector and builder, Mr. Grouse, of Hartland, Micli. The present proprietors of the "Everett" are Smith & Grouse, who have gained an enviable reputation among the traveling public as caterers to their wants. In 18;")!) the village of East Saginaw having become of sufficient HlSTOHY OK KAST SVl.INWV. ',) age and growth, was allowed by an act of the Legislature to throw ort' her village garments and assume the more dignified atid commanding costume of a city. Tlie lirst election occurred under the new city charter, in the spring of IS-iG, at which Col. Wm. L. P. T;itl!e was honored with being chosen the first Mayor. His administration was a very successful one. and marked with rapid strides of City improvement. The Maj'or of the City at tliis writing, is Mr. Dwight G. Holland, who was elected liut a few days since. The largest Livery est.iblishnient in tiu) State is lu-uited on the corner of Washington and Jolmson streets in this City, whose business manager is A. W. Gates, Esq.; it is owned by Messrs. Binrill, Morris and (iales, doing business under the name of A. W. (rates & Co. ]\L'. Burrill lives in Detroit and ]Mr. ]Morris in i'ontiac. Their stable is a l.irge brick structure and an ornament to the city. The compa- ny are pi-oprietors of all the various stage lines from the city. i\Ir. Gates the manaij-er is an enery^etic business man and much thought of for his good cj^ualities of head and heart. Morgan L. Gage was the first to enter into the business of harness making in this city. The first deatli occurred in Ibot:; caused by drowning. A German, v, hose name we are unable to give, fell from his boat while crossing the river and sunk imme- diately. His body was not recovered until several daj'S after, when it was found at a point severai rods above the place where he fell in, which sin;.ular circumstance would indicate an under- current iu the river. The first lirih occurred in 1J^50, which made Mr. Seymour Ensign the happy father of a male child. Up to December, 186"J, the city had no railroad couimunica- tlon with the outside world, and the absolute need of greater facilities for the winter transpoi'tation of mei'chandize, lumber &.Q., as well as the desire of the citizens for a rapid and comfort- able means of tarvel led to the construction of the Flint and Perre Marquette Rail Ecad ; the eastern branch of which, from Flint to East Saginaw, was completed at the date above mentioned. Tlip conqiletitm of this branch of (he road 10 msTOIiV OF K.V.ST SA(i]NV\V. gave the citi/ens of East Saginaw diiecl coniniuiiicatioii with the various railroad lines centering at I )etroit. H. C. Potter was its first Superintendent, and has ever since conducted the all'airs of the road with ability and to the entire satisfaction of its patrons. The following statement will convey a more correct idea of the road and its nianao-enient. Flint and Pere Marquette Railway. The proposed route would extend westward from Flint, (jene- sce count}-, to Pere ISIarquette, in IMason county, on Tiake Mich- igan. Distance 17"JA miles. Congress passed an act, Juno o, 18^)6, gi-anting every alternate eection of land, designated by odd numbers, then belonging to the United States, for six milrs in width, on each side of the located line. The deliciency, if any, was to be made up from the odd numbered sect'ons outside of the six miles, and within fifteen miles of the line. The entire grant ann)unts to ()()l*,4IM) acres. I'here has been already cei'tified, by the Secretary of the Interior, under this grant, and as pertaining to it, 54o,82U acres of land. (U this amount the Company have acquired title to 153,600 acres. The construction of seven miles more will give the title to 7G,8t)0 acres additional, and the construction of each and every twenty miles thereafter, will give title to the like additional number of acres, until the whole grant is absorbed.

In writing tlio History of East Saginaw one great link in the chain would be wanting were we to neglect a special mention of Mr. Alfred M. Hoyt. To him and Norman Little (of whom we have spoken elsewhere) the city is under a weighty obligation for its present success. His sojourn among us was of .short duration, he having staid only four years, re- turning again to New Y(nk ; but in that short space of time by his indomitable perseverance, caused a city to spring up out of the wilderness. He is a son of James M. Hoyt and a brother of •Tessa Hoyt. At tlie time of his fathers' purchase of property in Saginaw, in I80O, he came here to manage the same, and in connection with Norman Little had the superintendence of its growth and prosperity for four years. He erected many tine buildings, opened roads, and did many other things for the material advancement of the place. He represented Saginaw County in the State Legislature in the year 1 852, and was the fir.st Po.stmaster appointed in Ea.st Saginaw. In L*^54 becoming tired of the arduous duties of a pioneer, he relinquished his entire interest in the "embryo city" to his brother Jesse, which consisted of the whole of the original City as first laid out — called the "Hoyt I'lot" — ^br a sum of money which now would 12 IiISTOliY ()£• KAST SAGINAW. be iusiiiFicIent to purrhase ii single block of ground tlionnn. — He was a lugh minded, wdiole .soulod gentleman, liberal to a fault. He is now a successful commission merchant in the City of New York and is one of the firm fjf Jesse Hnyt &. Co. LonV VAST SAT.INAW. V.\ as President. Mr. Little had the honor of hoiug chosen first Mayor of the City of East Saginan-, whicli office he filled with credit to himself and to the entire satisfactiou of his constituents- lie is a man of strc.ng physical endurance, genial and afikble in his manners, with a kind and generous disposition. Wsi. F. (ti, \siiy, an early settler in East Saginaw, is one of her most prominent and influential citizens. He was formerly from Livingston County, New York, and first made his appearance in East Saginaw in lSf)0. He was the first master mechanic that settled here. He was a shrewd, active intelligent man, and made several investments in real estate at an early day, that have since made him wealthy. He was very influential in causing the erection of the three Bridges that span the Saginaw at this point, and is one of the heaviest stock holders in them. He held the office of flavor during the year 1863. Mr. Glasby is a man of sterling worth and integrity, and much esteemed by his fellow- citizens. In writing the memoir of Curtis Ejieksox, Esq., a seeming contradiction appears as compared with statements given in our lAical History of East Saginaw regarding the fii'st settlers. — This IS easily reconciled from the fact that the village as well as the City, as originally laid out, comprised only that part known aa "Hoyt's Plot," and in writing the early history we have confined ourselves to those limits. "Emerson's addition" on which Mr. Emerson first located, w^as afterwards incorporated in the City boundaries. Curtis Emerson was born in Norwich, Vermont, 4th February 1810, and came to Michigan in 1836. In 1846 he located him- self in Saginaw City, and commenced the lumber business. — The following year he moved to the East side of the River and permanently located himself in a building which was already erected, at the foot of what now is known as Bristol street. — There were only two houses, one boarding house, a saw mill, one barn and a black smith shop on the east side of the river at this 14 nisToci ui' r.Asr sAfi/wn'. [loint, at that time, and they wert^ all flf^sertt^il ; imt a Ihirig- being distui-bed tho Kolitncle. Mr. Enierscn eonuiienfed gettinjj out log's and sawing thoni into boards.. The following year he f'onvertod the Maclisniith shop into a store, which lio connofted with his lumbering business. This store was situated on the banlc of the river, also at tlie foot of I'ristol street. The few residents here, at that time, were a hardy and jovial little band, »vho were perfectly happy in each oiher's (;t.ni[)any at their even- ing gatherings. Mr. Kuiorson's house was the plaee of resort, and many a convivial meeting was held in the "//rtZ/.v of the J[o/ifczn/»H.s.''^ T^his time-honored structure was })uriied during the last winter, and all that remains of its classical halls is a heap of (;harred ruins. Mr. Emerson finding a ferry necessary to his own business, as well as to accommodate the {>ublic, for tlus purpose built a steam boat 74 feet in length , and named her the "(jri'eat Eastern." This ferry was continued until 1S()4, when the bridge was built, rendering it useless. Mr. Emerson is a kind hearted, public-spirited man, strictly honorable in all his dealings, and although at times a little too fond of a social glass, he may be termeil a noble ami true-hearted gentleman. Charles W. Grant was also one of the earliest pioneers, and perhaps the fir.st actual settler in East tSaginaw. He Avas born in Chenango Count}', New York, in ISIS. In 1 S49 he came to what is now East ISaginaw. He was elected to the oflfice of Sheriff of fSaginaw County in IS;"),'). The year previous he had been appointed Deputy U. S. Marshal, which ofHce he held for five 3'ears. In 1S57 he was re-elected Sheriff and served till 1859. Mr. Grant has been largely engaged in the lumV)er business since his first residence in the Va'ley, and is one of the leading men of the C^ity. Mr. Moses ]1 Hes.s, whose naiue finds frequent mention in these annals, is so intimately connected with the early history of the city, that we cannot forbear making this further mention of him. He was born in Terona, Oneida County, New York in 1S25, and emigrated to Tjivingston County, Michigan, in 1S37. HISRiKY Ol" KA.ST SAGIXAW. 15 After speiuliuj:,' several years in ]»rii>-}itou aiul in Lansing, (in the latter place he held the oHioe of Post Master autl also State. Jiibrarian for eight years,) he removed, in December, hSoO, to East lSagiua-\v , and engaged with A. M. Hoyt & Co. as hook keeper and cashier. ITe afterwards engaged in the Grocery business with O. 1\ Burt and his lirother G. G. Hess, in a build- ing on Water street, on the site lately occupied by the Saginaw Yalley Bank. Mr. Hess continued in this business only one year, and then opened a drug store on Genesee street, where J. T. Caulkins first comineueed the Grocery business, con- tin\ied in the Drug business eight years. When Mr. Hess first engaged in business here, what is now covered with buildings was an almost undisturbed forest, and he has frequently stood in his store door •And shot squirrels, as they leaped from limb to limb on the original forest trees. But few families then re- sided here, and these formed a neighborhood of social beings who were happy in a frequent interchange of good feeling. — Mr. Hess filled many offices of public trust, national, state and municipal, and only retired from public life in 1861. He has since been engaged in the care of his large property accumu- lated by careful industry, energy, and the rapid rise in the value of real estate. Mr. Hess is a public spirited man, aiid has done much for the city in the erection of public buildings and in other material contributions to its general prosperity. — He has frequently exhibited a remarkable energy in overcoming the adverse fortunes that have assailed him. In disposition Mr. Hes« is genial and affable, and his hand is ever open to those who are less fortunate in the possession of worldly goods than himself. Mr. G. G. Hess, brother of Moses B. Hess, died in 1861. He was intimately associated with his brother in all the early history of the city, as well as in business enterprises, and was highly esteemed in life for integrity of character ; and in his death was deeply lamented. Another of the early settlers was Alexander English. — He came here from Lansing, April 8th, 1851. His entire worldly possessions consisted of a team and wagon and one 10 HISTOKV OF EAST SAfilXAM. oxtva horse. He worked i\ farm, tlie first year after his arrival, for Alfred M. Hoyt. In D^O.'J lie pureluised the linie^ kiln on the river bank just below the !Maytiower mills, on Water street, and continued the uianuiaeture of lime until the present year. Ho quite recently sold the lime kiln property to Messrs. Fish and Holland for |21,()0(). In 1865 Mr. English purchased the steamer "L. G. Mason," of which he is still the own- er, a pasaengerer boat, that plies between tliis city and Bay ("'ity. ^Ir. English is a prudent business man and has arisen from com- parative poverty to opidence, through his own industry and per- severance. There are four iron foundries in the city, and these are among the most prosperous branches of biisiness carried on. Warner (ft Eastman conduct one of these ; G. W. Merrill one ; Wicks Brothers another, and a new one in .coui'se of completion will soon be in operation. There are two newspaper otHees, one issuing a weekly, the other a daily and a weekly paper. They ai-e both well edited and creditable sheets, named respectively: "The East Saginaw CoL'iur.E," and "Saginaw Emekpeisk." SKETCHES OF THE PRESS. Messrs. Mastui & Williamson, from Conueautville, l*a., started the "Saginaw Enterprise," a weekly newspaper, in the Spring of 1853. The paper Avas printed on a i^heet ilL'xT^ iiu lies. The next year Mason sold out to Williamson, and returned t^) Pennsylvania. Williamson retained the othce one year, during a portion of which time he suspended the publication of the Enterprise. Mr. Perry Joslin came to East Saginaw in August, 1850, and in October of the same year purchased the oihce of ^[r. Williamson for ^1,000. Mr. Joslin conducted the pajier alone until January 1804, when he sold a half interest in it to Mr. Francis Parth for 11,400. In May, 1801, while Mr. Joslin carried on the business, he was burned out and suffered consider- able loss, as well by the fire as in the removal of the office fixtures, but his paper continued to appear regularly, thoigh published IIISTOr.Y OF EAST SAGINAW. 17 for a few weeks on a half sheet. Messrs. Josliu & Parth coiiducted the cffice until July 1SG5, when Col. C. Y. DeLand became a partner and tlie value of the office was increased from -^^S'^OOO to ■"?ll2,000. In September of the same 3'ear they began the issue of a Daily paper ; and the Weekly was enlaiged to a '20x1^9 inch sheet. January 1st IStJO the office was nuide a stock con- cern under the State laws, with a capital of |i:25,()0O. and Mr. Joslin continued in charge of tlie pa[ier, at this time the Dail}' issue was enlarged to the same din\enbions as the Weekly. The office is at present supplied with an Erieson Hot Air Engine, a Hoe drtiiu cylinder press, machine and hand presses and a good supply of Job type, both English and German, and issues a well printed sheet, daily and weekly The office is located on the corner of Water and Tuscola streets, in a two story brick build- ing constructed for its present use. In July, 1859, the Courier was established by Geo. F. Lewis, running one hand press, witli a moderate stock of job, in addi- tion to newspaper material. In September, 1801, job material and press sold to Mr. Joslin, of the Enterprise, upon a "give and take" offer —both proprietors being convinced that there was not enough job printing in the cit}- then for two establishments — and only the newspaper ran for the year following. In September, I8G0, the job printing materials of the C'Guricr were replenished, in August, 1863, the paper was enlarged and Major K. W. Lyon became a partner with ]\Ir. Lewis in the establishment, which at this date runs two machine and three hand presse.s, and in addition to its newspaper material, has a complete and elegant assortment of job type, cuts, borders and apparatus. The Courier establishment has been set up — we mean the material — six times since its first appearance, in six different build- ings, and is now located in the 2d story of Grant Block, Wash- ington street, occupyin^^ a room 22x80 feet ui extent ; eligibly situated and judiciously arranged for the management of its extensive business. cf 18 I11.ST01JY OF EAST SAGIXAW. We have sketched the local history of East Sagina-w", and given an idea of its rapid transition from an untraversed Avilder- ness to a populous city. The future of East Sagina-^', is even brighter, if we may jud.^e the future by the past, than its age v.'ould lead us to suppose. Iho position of the cit}' as au inland port, yet so located as not only to command inland trade, but also commercial intercourse by water with the rest of the State, and with all the important Lake ports, makes it a city of whose future it is ditficult to conceive. The immense lumbering inter- ests of the surrounding country, that find here their central depot ; the exiiaustless salines that underlie the whole valley ; the extensive fisheries that just bt-giu to engage the attention of the people ; these are among the profitable sources of wealth that tend to make of East Saginaw a populous town. Her ample river, into which the largest class of Lake vessels may enter, gives to the city a very desirable mode of access to the outside world. Vessels may load at her wharve, and discharge their cargoes at the docks in Liverpool or Havre, and Vice Versa. — The only limit to the course of commerce in this direction is the capacity of the Welland Canal. Any vessel which can pass the Welland locks, can load and unload alternately at East Saginaw and at foreign ports. The rapidly increasing demand for the various indigenous products of the locality, must make for the Valley a widely known fame, and the future of East Saginaw can hardly be less grand and enduring than that of the most favored city on our inland waters. Who shall paint the young giant that grows from a wildei'uess to a great city in a dozen years ? Who shall sketch it at his easel when another decade sweeps by ? We may look for a development of vitality here that shall outstrip the most sanguine imaginings of its own san- guine people within the next half-score of years. Churches ani Societie.?. ST. PAUL'S ClIUECH. St. Paul's Church, East Saginaw, (Protestant Epis^copal), was organized under the ministry of Rev. Z. Syaulding, Februar}' lid, 18(54, with not nuro than two or three communicants. — The succeeding Clergymen were Eev. Edward Mayer, 1858-9, Rev. G. B. Eugle, 1859-60, Eev. Henry Banweli, lSGO-61, Eev. D. E. Brown, 1861-64, Eev. Wm. Paret, present Eector. The growth of the Churcii may be seen from the number of communicants reported at diiierent times. In 1857, there were five, in 1859, eight, and also in 1860 eight; in 1802 twenty-live, 1864, fifty, and in 1865 one hundred. The Sunday school now numbers '1'2 Teachers and 100 Schol- ars ; having a libi'ary of 3*20 vijlumes. The Church building, on the north-east corner of Lapeer, and Warren streets — not yet quite finished — was begun in October, 1864. It is of wood, in Gothic style ; 40 feet by 103, with deep Apsidal Chancel ; cost 117,000, including furnaces and furni- ture; seating about 400 persons. The lot on which the Church stands was a gift from Mr. Hoyt. CONGEEGATIONAL CHUECH. In the Spring of 1857, Eev. W. C. Smith, then of Lapeer, was induced to visit East Saginaw with a view to the formation of a new Church. The movement met with so favorable a re- sponse that the services of Mr. Smith were seLiured for a year, begining the first Sabbath in May. Buena Tista Hall, then just opened, was used as the place of worship, being furnished for this purpose, free of charge, by the owner, Mr. Jesse Hoyt, of New York. The Congregation commenced and continued to be large. On the first Sabbath in June, a Sunday school was organized by the ■JO HISTOKV Ol' KA.ST S.UilNAW. ('lection of CIiesttT B. Jones. i'^vi];erir!tf r,(l< nt. Jn a short time tlio school nimibere I 1) t scholars anil teachers, with a well- selected library of abont (»(HI volumes. On Wednesday, the Hth day of September, ISoT, the first Congregational Society was organized by the adoption of articles of association and the election of Trustees. The preliminary ste[is towards tlie organization of a Church were taken at se\'eral uieetings convened for the purpose ; first of which was held Sept. 18, at which it was first decided by a vote of IS to 4, that the Congregational form of Church Goveru- ment sliould be adopted, after which articles of faith, a covenant, and sundry regulations were agreed upon. On the 7th of October, an E'jclesiastical council convened by letters missive, assembled iu Buena Yista Hall, by which the preliminary proceedings were aji^iroved, and the Church publicly recognized. Twenty-two persons united in the organization by letter', and four on profession of their faith. Since then l'2-l persons have been received to membership, of Avhom 40 were by profession ; 42 have been removed by death or dismission to other Churches, leaving a present membership of 12(). The Sunday school has largely increased, having a present enrollment of 325 and an average attendance of 250 ; with a library of 500 volumes. On the first Sabbath in February, 1861, the Congregation re- moved froui the Hall into the new Chui'ch edifice, corner of Washington and German streets, which had been built, includ- ing lot, at an expense of about $o,500, which is still in use. A movement is now on foot to build a new House of Worship, to cost 135,000, on lots purchased by the Society on the corner of .Tefferson and Hayden streets. The pastoral office becoming vacant on the resignati(.)n of the Rev. W. C. Smith, it Avas filled by a call to Rev. J. G. W. Cowles of Mansfield, Oliio, who entered upon his ministry with the Church, on the second Sabbath in May, 18G5, and was in«talled pastoi', by an Ecclesiastical Council, Sept. (itli 1865.

This Church was organized with a constituent membership of 15, May lo, 1858. Recognized by a council of sister Churches, August 14, 1858. The Church was supplied about six months by Rev. Samuel Cornelius, now at Ann Arbor. Rev. J. S. Good- )nan, settled with the Church iu November, 1859, and continued as Pastor until Nov. 186;>. Iu the same month letters of dis- mission were granted to about twenty Members, living in Sagi- naw City, for the purpose of organizing a Church in that place. In October, 1864, the present I'astor, Rev. A. L. Morehouse, settled with the Church. The present membership is 84. The Sabbath school numbers 1 50 ; two Bible classes ; fifteen Teachers. A Sabbath school library of about oOO vols. A central and desirable site for a new edifice has been secured on the corner of Jefferson and German streets. Tl IIISTOUY OF EAST SAGIXA\r. MASONIC. There is one lodge in East Saginaw. It was the first one formed in the Valley and is called "Saginaw Lodge No. 77," — A Dispensation was granted by the Grand Lodge of Michigan to Moses B. Hess as W. M., David Hughes as S. W. and Jas. A. Large as J. W., with S. C. Munson, 8. C. Beach, Absalom F. Hayden and David F. Hess as Charter Members, to open a lodge at East Saginaw, and the first meeting was held at the present Masonic Hall on 23d of .Time 1855. No work was done until the oOth and olst of July 1855, when by the assistance of R. W. Bela Cogshall, the then Gr. V. and Lecturer, the E. A. degi'ee was conferred on Hon. Norman Little, Wm. L. P. Little, Wm. L. Webber and Chas. B. Mott in the order here named. A Charter was granted by the Grand Lodge at its annual session in Jan. 1850, and on the 27th of Feb. 1856 an election for officers under the charter was held, by which Jos. A. Large was chosen as W. M., W. L. Webber as S. W. and Chas W. Grant as J. W., and on the same day E. \V. Horace S. Roberts, Deputy Grand Master, assisted by R. W. John B. Hamilton J. G.

McFarlin, A. Ferguson, S. B. Knapp, Thonuis M. Birdsall. Chas. B. Mott, Esq., was installed N. G., A. Ferguson, V. G. Owing to the very limited number of business men in the then small town, this Lodge did not meet with its merited success, and after struggling for nearly two years its members ceased to meet as Odd Fellows. June *2d, 1865, just ten years from' its first organization, the Lodge was re-instituted, installing Jay, S. Curtis, N. G.; A. Ferguson, E. S.; C. H. Burton, P. S.; W. F. Glasby, S.; and now ranks with the first lodges in the State of Michigan, hav- ing one hundred of the first class business men of the City as members. nSSTOKY OF EAST SAGINAW. 1:0 Odd Fellowship, although of ancient origin, was introduced into this country about oU years ago ; and already, we number the fraternity by tens of thousands. During the lapse of tune its blessings have been everywhere acknowledged and commended. The sick have been relieved, the destitute com- forted, the widow made happy, and the orphan educated. — AVherever our Order flourishes, it will be,.found that the virtues of berievolence, eeouou;y and harmony are cultivated. A mem- ber of the Order can ahvays count on "troops of friends," who will never leave him in adversity or affliction. Wheresoever he goes, he is surrounded by brethren, who at a word will hasten to do him good. The chronicles of our Order contain numerous illustrations of the beneficence of the institution. Many virtuous but indigent families have been saved from despair and crime by the munificent charity of our Lodges. This charity is in deed secret, and therefore more grateful efficient. No sense of mor- tification is attendant on relief furnished by the Lodge. The benefit is a right not a hoon. No matter how long the recipient of our good offices has been an invalid, the relief given is never grudgingly bestowed. It is as much a duty to receive as it is a duty to give. We expect no gratitude for our favors ; for every member of the Lodge has an undisputed right to demand thoni. kSuch mutual giving and taking preserves a man's soul in inde- pendence. An Odd Fellow takes but his own when he receives anything from the Lodge ; for his own contributions ha^'e con- stituted the fund he draws from. He must be worthy, however. No invalid through intemperance or immorality can participate in our bounty. The dissipated man, if known to be such, can never enter among us ; but should any imworthy Individual be introduced, by successful fraud, into the Fraternity, he will soon be taught that his own inventions will return to plague him. W^e cannot undertake to exhibit, at this time, all the peculiar excellencies of our Order Initiation into the mysteries will in due season, display before the candidate the beautiful uses of Odd Fellowship. 26 HISTORY OF EAST SAGINAW.

I^^" To say anything in addition to what we have already said, in praise of the Bancroft House, or its gentlemanly pro- prietor, Mr. G W. Wesley, would be superfluous. We will only add, that in connection with the Bancroft Mr, Wesley has one of the finest Billiard Rooms in the State, supplied with four tables of the most approved manufacture. And his room being spacious and admirably lighted and ventilated, renders it a very inviting resort to lovers of the "cue." Mr. Ryan, his gentlemanly attendant, is always watchful to render every atten- tion to his patrons. See card, outside front cover. Fkey Brotheks, dealers in Books and Stationeiy, commenced business on Water street, East Saginaw, in 1 802. On the first of February, 1866, Mr. Henry W. Wickleim became a member of the firm, changing its name to J. F. Frey & Co. Their busi- ness becoming increased they found it necessary to remove to their present large and commodious store in the Grouse Block, on Genesee street, which occurred about two months since. — Their stock is very rich and varied, consisting of almost every kind of books and a large assortment of stationery, &c., &c. — Their prices are very low; indeed as low as the same articles could be purchased for at retail in the eastern market. '"Quick sales and small profits," is the plan upon which they work, which will ultimately prove a great success. Call and examine their rich and splendid assortment of Books and Stationery — See card, page 49. Mr. B. B. Btjckhoxit as an enterprising business man is worthy especial notice in our pages. He came here from Central New York in 1853, and engaged with Col. W. L. P. Little as clerk for one year ; at tho expiration of which time he entered into a partnership with Messrs. Beach & Morris, in a general merchan- dizing business. This partnership was dissolved after the con- tinuance of one year, by mutual consent; and the stock on hand was divided among the partners, equally. Mr. Buckhout took the Hardware portion of the stock and opened a general HISTORY OF EAST SAGINAW. 31 Hardware store, which he has continued ever since, and we are glad to say with success. His store is located at No. 124, north Water street, and is supplied with a full assortment, from cellar to garret. Mr. Buckhout is a pleasant and agreeable man to do business with, and has a hont of friends in the Valley. Long may he wave. See card, page 51. Ja8, S. DeLand, commenced business in company with Mr. H. H. Woodrufi" in September, 1865, under the firm of H. H. Woodruff & Co., carrying on the Grocery and Provis- ion business. In Febuary, 1865, H. H. Woodruff, relin- quished his interest to his partner, who still continues the business. His store is large and capacious, being eighty feet in depth and twenty feet wide, well stocked with a fresh supply of Groceries and provisions. During the short time he has been in business, he has acquired a large patronage, by honest deal- ing and adhering to the principle of "quick sales and small profits." His store is located in a central part of town, at No. 224, South Washington street. See card, page 53. M. H. Allaedt, ever since his arrival in East Saginaw has been closely identified with the interests of the City, holding some office of trust, the greater part of the time. The first knowledge we have of his early history is in the "Plaindealer office;" at Cleveland, Ohio, where he learned the Printer's trade. He afterwards published the first German paper in Michigan, at Detroit. He afterwards returned to Cleveland and entered the Cleveland law school, where he graduated in 1861. In the spring of 1862 he came to East Saginaw and opened a law office. He was elected City Clerk the same year, and proved a very efficient member of the Council. In the Spring of 1864 he was elected Alderman of the 2d Ward, and in 1866 he was re-elected ; which office he now holds. He received the Agency for several first class Insurance Companies and has beenjengaged quite extensively in that business. He lately purchased Mr. W, H. Southwick's interest in the Tobacco store in the Irving Block on Genesee street, which business, together with his Insurance 32 HISTORY OF EAST SAGIX.VW. business, he is now engaged in. Mr. Allardt is a very clear minded, intelligent, and candid man; a useful member of society, and miicJi esteemed for his many good qualities. See card, page 55. Messrs. Elliott & i:IvKiiiso>' came to East Saginaw in Janu- ary, 186G, and opened a Crockery and general house furnish- ing store in the Empire Block on South Water street. This firm are pioneers in the Valley in keeping Carpets, Oil Cloths, Cut- lery, Plated goods and all the other articles, useful, convenient and ornamental in the way of housekeeping supplies. The generous patronage extended to the firm has led them to in- crease their facilities for supplying the demands of the public both at Wholesale and Retail, until their store has assumed an extent and variety difficult to be surpassed. These gentlemen, both, have had a long experience in- their busines, and just pre- vious to their settling here, were citizens of Binghamtou, New York. From a personal acquaintance, we can recommend them as fair and square dealers. Call and see their .stock. See card, page 59. CiiAEi.r.s H. Smrii & Co., manufacturers and dealers in Boots, Shoes, Eubbers and Boot Pacs, in the Empire Block, on South Water street, in this City, are formerly fi'om Binghamtou, New York, and are gentlemen worthy the confidence and patronoge of the citizens of the Valley. They keep a very extensive assortment; and manufacture the best kind of work, as we can personally attest, having tried them. Their store is spacious and Avell lighted ; and customers dealing with them will be politely treated and fairly dealt with. Give them a call. See card, page 61. In March, 1865, Mk. Marshall C Sjiitu became proprietor of the "EviuiETT House," bringing with him the experience of eight years as a landlord ; and if what "everybody" says can be relied upon, he "knows how to keep a hotel." In January, 1866, Mr. Gr. 11. Crouse, sou of Robert Crouse — who owns and built the house — became associated with Mr. Smith in the n:ianairemeut HISTORY OF EAST SAGINAW. 33 of the business. The Table (VEote is well supplied with all the delieacies of the season, and a stranger stopping with them is made to "feel at home." They have a fine set of billiard tables connected with the establishment for those having a fancy for that kind of recreation. In all its appointments the Everett House is one of the most complete and desirable hotels in the west. See card, outside, back cover. The Dry Goods store of Williaji Barie situate on' Genesee street deserves especial mention. Mr. Barie is an old resident of East Saginaw and has literally "grown with its growth and strengthened with its strength." He commenced business here in 1859 carrying on a variety store such as is usually kept in country towns, until 1SG2, when he made the Dry Goods Trade his speciality. His store is well located and filled with the choicest selection of goods that can be purchased in New York market. He is gentlemanly in his manners and always glad to show his goods. Give him a call. — See Advertisement page 88. Stevens, Pool & Co., are extensive dealers in Dry Goods, Fancy Goods, Notions, Lumberman's goods, &c., and now per- manently occupy their new store recently fitted up for them in the Everett Block on Genesee street. They first commenced business on Water street in the spring of 1865, and built up for themselves an enviable reputation as dealers, and a large and lucrative patronage. Their present location is one of the finest in the city and their store a perfect model, being finished off in the most exquisite style, unsurpassed in any place west of New York. They have a full and weW selected stock, and their prices are really very low. The following are the gentlemen who compose the firm : J: R. Stevens, B. F. Pool and J. T. Barnham, who are well and favorably known. Among the largest and best business establishments in the Saginaw Yalley may be mentioned that of Messrs. Lenheim & Iddings, Manufacturers, and wholesale and retail dealers in Boots, Shoes, and Leather, at No. 211, Genesee street. Mr. 84 IIISTOIIY OF KASX SAGI>-AW Lenheim was the first to engage in the Boot & Shoe trade, ex- chisively, iu tliis city. His business was established on ^Yater street in 1862, in the store now occupied by H. Duncan, where he continued until January, 18G5. His business becoming so increased he found it necessary to reaiove to the store adjoin- ing, which -was double the capacity, and gave him a better opportunity of displaying his immense stock of goods, and in- crease his facilities for manufacturing. His store Avas noted for being the place where good bargains could be obtained in boots and shoes. On the 5th of March, 1865, T^ichard M. Iddings became a member of the firm, at which time they removed to the store now occupied by them, No. 211, Genesee street, Everett Block, which is more roomy than the one just vacated, and is a better location for business. Their stock is complete, and their custom work warranted to give entire satisfaction. See their cards, pages 72 and 112. The firm of J. R. Livingstox & Co., is composed of J. E. Liv- ingstonand R. J. Tappan, the latter well kiio wn as tl^e late gentle- manly and obliging Clerk at the Bancroft House. These gen- tlemen both possess rare qualities as business men, uniting with a pleasing and gentlemanly manner, the strictest integrity and honesty of dealing. Their store is located at No. 102 Genesee, corner of Water streets, and has lately been enlarged, re-fitted and re-painted ; so that now it presents a most attractive appear- ance. Their stock is rich and elcaani, comprising as large a variety, as can be found iu the A'alhiy. Such men are sure to succeed ; and they have our best wishes. See their Advertisment page 74.

The Iron Foundry buildings occupied by Wickks Bkothki!s, on Nortii Water street, was erected by H. W. Wood & Co., formerly of Flint, in July 1800. The firm of H. W. Wood & Co., was composed at that time of H. W. Wood and H. 1). & E. N. Wickes, who carried on business successfully until July, 1865, at which time the senior partner withdrew bis interest and H. D. & E. N. Wickes continued the business under the name and style of Wickes Bkotheks. The main building, is a sub- stantial wood structure one story high, one hundred and eighty feet in length by forty-four feet in width, which, together with other smaller buildings connected with it, occupies/o?//' full Lots, making a frontage on north Water street of one hundred and twenty feet extending back two hundred and forty feet to North Washington street. This enter[irising firm keeps steadily em- ployed twenty-two men, and do all kinds of jobs m their line, such as Stationary Engines, all kinds of mill geering and ma- chinery, also salt well machinery, and all kinds of iron and brass castings.

His fore- man, John Franklin, ranks among the first mechanics in the trade. Give him a call. See his card page 89. HISTOREY OF EAST SAlilNAW. 37 M. H. GvLLAHEK came to East Saginaw, June, 1862, and en- gaged in the Insurance business with C. B. Mott, taking general charge of the office business up to the time of Mr. Mott's decease, which occurred May 14th, 1S65, In July following he was appointed the Agent for the Companies formerly represented by Mr. Mott, and by careful management and close application he has largely increased his business. He represents a number of the oldest and most reliable Insurance Companies in the Union. By his straight-forward manner of doing business he has won the confidence and esteem of tho business men of the Valley. — We be-speak for him an increased patronage. Messrs. Edward Aikin, & L. H. Babcock commenced the Crockery and glass ware business in this city two years ago on Washington street, where they carried on an extensive trade. -^ About a year ago, L. H. Babcock relinquished his interest in the business to James Stinson. They removed to their present location. No. -09 Grenesee street, Everett Block, in March last. Their new store is well lighted and roomy, being twentj'-three feet in width by eighty feet in length, and tliree stories high ; containing as large, and as rich a stock as can be found west of Bufl'alo. Their goods are ai-ranged in the most tasty style, dis- playing their splendid assortment to the greatest advantage imaginable. It is a sight really worth seeing, even if no atten- tion is had of purchasing. They are both gentlemen of pleas- ing manners and are always happy to exhibit their wares. — Country merchants will find everj^ advantage that Eastern markets afford, and their interest at all times carefully guarded. The Jewelry store of iS. T. Leggett, located at No. 106, South Washins'ton street, in this city, is particularly worthy of men- tion. The variety and richness of his stock, is not excelled out- side of Detroit, and his gentlemanly mode of dealing elicits the commendations of all those who have business transactions with him. He first commenced business in this city in the year 1S62, in the store at present occupied by H. C. Silsbee; on Water street, and continued there until February, 1866, when he re- SfS' rrisToRr of e\8t saghvaw. moved to his present location. His store, in pcint 0/ finish and design, is faultless, being a perfect model in artistic dinplay. Those- wishing their watches repaired, will find in him, a mechanic of superior skill.

With a small capital and a large amount of enterprise at the outset, he has succeeded in accumulating a nice little property. He purchased of Chas. Allen, Esq., the lot \ipon which his store is erected, about nine years ago, and about two years since he erected the tine looking building he now occupies. Mr. Marks, 'as a dealer, stands well in the community. See page 92. W. H. SouTHwiCK, dealer in Tobacco and Segars, and Leather Belting in connection with William Ward, at No. 107 Genesee street, first settled in East Saginaw in 18G5. He came from Kochester, N Y., and engaged in the business of Lumber In- spector in this place. He continued in the business until 1862, at which time he was appointed Assistant U. S. Assessor for this district. In 1862 he was elected one of the illdermen of the City to represent the 3d Ward ; the duties of which office he discharged with credit. In 1864 he became interested with M. H. Allardt in tlie Tobacco and Segar business in the Irving Block, which he continued till Feb. 1866, when he sold back his interest to his partnei*. In April, the same year, he formed a partnership with Mr. Wm. Ward in transacting the leather belting and tobacco and segar busiues.s, at No. 107 Genesee st., which, together with his duties as U. S.

" The "Chapin system of Salt making" has now reached a point where it can constantly demand the earnest attention aud investigation ■of "salt men" and business men g'cnei'ally. There are four ^■'Blocks" in successful operation on this plan ah-eady, and anoth> er one in the course of completion, — one in Saginaw City, by the Saginavv' City Salt Manufacturing Company, in which Messrs Barnard & Binder are the principal stock owners, one in the city of St. Claiu, — two in Zilwaukie. aud one in progress of erection in Bay City. The Blocks at Zilwaukie operated by the AVestern Salt Company in which the Messrs. Driogs are inter- ested, have an evaporating surface of about 2,700 square feet each. They are somewhat larger than that of Messrs. Barnard and Binder, and are producing a correspondingly larger amount of Salt, with a consumption of fuel of about one cord of wood in the manufacture of ten barrels of salt. The Block of Messrs^ Barnard & Binder is situated directly on the Saginaw river and three-fourths of a mile above Saginaw City. The dimensions of the building itself is 40 feet in width by 140 in length , having several compartments 10 feet wide extending IIG feet in length of the building on either side for the reception of the salt pre- vious to packing. In the central portion of the building occupying the entire length and breadth between the "bins," is a large vat, shaped like the letter Y; in the front end of which is a huge "fire box," five and a half feet in diameter, and 11 feet in length, from which extends a flue in half-circular form four feet in diameter communicating with the smokestack at the rear end of the build- ing. On this vat rests a large graining pan extending over the entire top, on each side of which is a draining board three fee^ in width. In the process of manufacture, this vat is tilled from the tanks or reservoirs in the rear of the block by means of pump logs, 40 iriSTOlTV OF K\ST SAG-IXAW. which eirtpty the brine into a '•boiUng^ box," comrnBnicating with the vat, and resting directly over the furnace. In passing through this boiUng box and along the fine to the rear, from whence the- pan is fed, the brine is heated to tl»e point of saturation and all the impurities are precipitated to the bottom of the vat, and from thence are drawn off about once in a season, through an orifice under the fire box. The "bitter water" whenever it collects, is drawn off through a similar orifice at a level with the graining pan. It is estim.ated that this bloclj is yielding an average of about sixty barrels of salt per diem, with a consumption of from five to si.x cords of wood ov seven cords of pine slabs. One man only is employed on a "tower," dem-easiug the expense for labor from the ordinary, full one-half. We can say from actwal observation that the appearance of the salt manufactured at this block indicates a much purer and finer quality than that made by the old method, indeed a salt that "cannot be beat." It is claimed, and we believe correctly, that many of the impurities which, in the ordinary process of kettle boiling, are crystalized wUh the mlf, and precipitated before they reach the pan, where in this operation the crystalization takes place, thus leaving the salt perfectly pui^e. The evidences are that a salt purer in quality and clearer, can be made by this than by the old. process, and made at a reduction in cost of at least one-third. In this view of the case, its general introduction is greatly to be hoped for, as a matter of public as well as private interest and benefit. See page 88. Boyd & Booth, successors to Geo. C. Sanborn ; have had a large experience in the Grocery and Provision business. They have a full supply of everything in their line. Purchasers will find them gentlemen, fair and upright Dealers. We wish them the success their merits deserve. See card, page 76. We would call especial attention to the advertisement of G. Fred. Lewis, dealer in Stationery, at No. 103, South Washing- ton street, opposite the Bancroft House.

His assistant Mr. A Ferguson, carries on in con- nection with this store a general Eail Soad Ticket Agency and Telegraph office, and can furnish tickets over all the popular Eoads east and west.

We recommend him uncj^ualifiedly to the patronage of the public. See advertisement, pages following Indian and Pioneer History. Attention is called to the advertisement of J. C. Whalen & Son, wholesale and retail dealers in Groceries & Provisions, at No. 222, South Washington street. They have a large and con- venient store and their stock is fresh and well assorted.

Baknujx & White, late of Buffalo, New York, have opened a Wholesale and Eetail Grocery and Provision store on Water street, in the store recently occupied by L. S. Lenheini as a boot and shoe store. They have a fresh supply of everything in tlieir line, purchased since the decline in prices, which the}' are enabled to offer to consumers and dealers at a very low figure. They are young men, pleasant and agreeable in their manners, and always pleased to show their goods; call and see them. Messes. Wiggixs & Clark, carry on the Merchant Tailoring business exclusively. They do not deal in "ready made cloth- ing" except their own manufacture. They purchased their stock of cloths, cassimeres, vestings, &c. &c, since the i-ecent decline in prices, for which they paid cash ; consequently are enabled to furnish goods at a very low figure. Mr. Clark has had sixteen years experience in his business in Cleveland, 0., and vicinity, and will personally attend to the cutting and fitting department. They are both pleasant and obliging men and will give entire satisfaction to those patronizing them. See their card. Pioneer FoujsfDRV. — The Iron works in this city lately belong- ing to Messrs. Warner & Eastmen ; since purchased by Messrs. J. H. Hill & George Morris, were established in 1854 by Messrs. Warner, Eastman & Chandlers, who managed the same for several years. Afterwards the Messrs. Chandlers sold their interest to Mr. Shaw, and the firm was changed to Warner, Eastman & Shaw. Mr. Shaiv after a time withdrew his interest from the concern, leaving the business in the 4iands of Messrs. Warner & Eastman, who continued the same until April, 1866, Avhen they sold to Messrs. Hill & Morris, the present proprietors. The first steam engine manufactured in Saginaw Valley, which is the one now used in driving the machinery connected with the foundry and planing mill attached, was built at this foundry, HISTOEF.Y OF EAST SAGINAW. 43 by Mr. Morris, who was the superintendent of the works, and is as reliable and serviceable a piece of machinery as was ever turned out from any works. Mr. Morris is an "old hand at the bellows, " having had from fifteen to twenty years experience in the Foundry business. With this ample expei-ience and supe- rior facilities in the way of machinery, they are prepared to fill orders for the manufacture of machinery, mill gearing, &c. &c., in the shortest; possible time. They employ a large number of men in their works, and also have connected with the Foundry, a Planing mill where they manufacture siding and flooring. The Messrs. Hill & Morris are both prudent business men full of the "go-ahead" spirit, so requisite in this business. Their success is a foregone conclusion. 44 EAST SAGINAW DIKKCTOKY. TSIIE] W.

These Works can run continually, and will make more salt, and of better quality than can be produced by the Kettle Process. They save one half the fuel, (one cord of wood making ten barrels of salt,) a large part of the labor, the loss from breakage of kettles, &c., and are in all re- spects the most economical and best mode of manufactur- ing salt by artificial heat.

Bay City, in the county of Bay and State of Michigan, is sit- uated on the right and east bank of Saginaw Eiver, and about four miles from its mouth. It is in Township fourteen. North Kange five East principal meridian ; in latitude forty-three and a half, nearly north, and in longitude eighty-four, west. The ground on which it stands is from twelve to twenty, and in places, thirty feet above the surface of the river ; which, at this point, from its nearness to the Bay and from its breadth, as well as from the peculiar conformation of the country above, maintains very nearly an even stage of water ; seldom varying from its accustomed height more than from two to four feet — the chief rise and fall being regulated by the stage of water in the lakes. The ground on which the city stands is admirably adapted to the demands of a large place. It is firm in structure — being composed of compact clay and loam — high enough for all the purposes of drainage and for cellars, and yet not rising into hills nor sinking into gullies, so as to necessitate expensive grading ; allowing the easy moving of heavy materials and of buildings, such as the requirements of a growing city call for. In early days the land was ivet in the first months of the year, as in the forests adjacent it sometimes still is ; not because it lacked a sufficient height for good drainage, but from the compact nature of the subsoil forbidding the easy escape of the water beneath. Any lands, even the highest, are liable to be wet from the same cause. This difficulty is in process of remedy precisely as fast as the country is settled, cleared and brought under culture. 4 1 niSTOKY OF liAV CITY. EAELY HISTORY. The State of Michigan, in common with all iho Xortli\ve!>t, was originally in possession of the Indian tribes. Bvit in 181!) Gen. Riley, for many years Postmaster in the cit}- of Schenec- tady, X. Y., and who had been a trader among the Chippewr, In- dians, obtained from the chiefs of tliat tribe a section of land for his son, John Riley, born of an Indian mother. This section of land Avas that on which Bay City is bailt, and was styled " the John Riley Reserve." A few white settlers began to come into the Saginaw Valley as early as 1828. The valley had in fact been visited in '1792, by the grandfather of Medor Trombley, in pursuit of furs, who perished in the following manner : He made a musk-rat spear for an Indian. One spear only created a demand for another by another Indian. The second spear was an improvement upon the first, which fact excited the ill blood of the owner of the in- ferior article, and in the confab growing out of it Trombley was stabbed in the back. He was able nevertheless to retreat to his boat. He started for Detroit, but did not reach it ; being- knocked overboard by the boom of his small craft and drowned in Lake Huron. Capt. Joseph F. Marsac, of French descent, and till 18o8, when he removed to Lower Saginaw, a resident of Hamtramack, near Detroit, also made occasional trips to the Saginaw Yalley, and in 1819 he was present at a treatj'-making between Gren. Cass, for the Grovernment, and the Indians. Hon. Eleazer Jewett came to the valley in 1828, and was fol- lowed in 1829-30 by Gardiner and Ejjhraim "\^'illiams , all of whom settled at or near Saginaw. The next settlers in the val- ley were Hon. Albert Miller and James McCormick, deceased ; both of whom settled finally in what is now Portsmouth, and Hon. Ure ; all previous to 18o2. James Fraser came in 1834, and settled at first on a farm upon the Tittabawassee. — Previous to 1835 he was followed by Medor and Joseph Trom- bley, and between that and 1838, by Cromwell Barney, Thomas Rogers and Hon. Sidney S. Campbell. itrsTony of bay city. At Bay City the first white settlers were Leon Trombley and one Mesho, both of French extraction, and who emio;rated here from Detroit in 18oii. Trombley was an appointee of the Gov- ernment, to instruct the Indians in agriculture ; but from defec- tive education himself in the agricultural art, he was not of great service in that behalf to the red men. He did however possess some knowledge of the principles of barter, and so pro- ceeded to build a log house for the joint purposes of residence and trader, and being su])[ilied with goods by the American Fur (~'ompany, he carried on a traffic in furs for some years. His stoi-e and resiay City now stands. lu the year following, or IKoT, having laid out a tiwn, the company proceeded to construct a store house and dock, at the foot of Center Street, and also a small building on Fifth Street, which was used as their office. Their intention was to proceed at once to build up a village. — But like a great many intentions of that time, it was upset by causes out of their reach. The financial revulsion, commencing in 183G and continuing to operate for some j'ears, overtook their endeavor before it had assumed any ver}^ tangible shape or reached any considerable results, and forced them to abandon it. The company was dissolved and the parties removed to different parts of the country. Afterwards Hon. James G. Birney, Daniel H. Fitzhugh and James Fraser, purchased the interest of the old company and proceeded to realize something of their designs. As ah'eady narrated Medor Trombley emigrated to this valley in 1885. He settled in Portsmouth, and built a log house near where the Center House now stands, and began trade with the Indians. His first trip to the valley was on foot, following an Indian trail from Detroit to Saginaw, and driving at the same time some cattle. From Saginaw to this point he came on a raft down the river. He then returned for his cattle which had been left at Saginaw, and swam them across the river at the "Lone Tree," now called " The Elbow." After two year's trade in company with his brother Joseph, he proceeded to erect a frame house, which is still standing, and which has the honor of being the first frame building erected in the valley. The lumber of which it was constructed was brought from Detroit for that pur- pose upon a vessel of twenty-eight tons burthen called the Sarage. HISTORY OF BAY CITY. 5 It iis now known as the Centev House in Portsiuoutli. For a long time it was called the " Bi<^ House," and in the year lb'4(( was purchased by James McCoruiick, remodeled, finished and oc- cupied by him until his death, some years after. This vessel above named, called the Sacdf/e, seems to have been the first of any size that ever visited this region. It was a schooner, and each of its arrivals at Lower Saginaw was announced by the American Fur Conqi.iuy's agents, by the firing of a cannon. HOrNDARLES AND POLITICAL HI8T()KY. This entire region until J84o, was included in the Township of Saginaw. At that time the Township of Hampton, including Lower Saginaw, now Bay City, and belonging to the County of Saginaw was organized. At first and for some years, tlie name "Lower Saginaw" designated all the white settlement in this immediate region. The first township meetiiig for the Town of Hampton, County of Saginaw, took place in the year LS43, and was held at the house of Sidney S. Campbell, in the building now known as the Globe Hotel, on the corner of Fifth and Water Streets, Bay City. This was the first frauu^d dwelling built in Bay City proper. — The lots on which the building was erected had been given to Mr. Campbell, by the Saginaw Bay Company, as an inducement for him to settle in the tcnvn. Previously to this, the Company had erected a block house intended for a dwelling, but used as a boarding house. The election at this time was for a Supervisor. Hon. James G. Birney and S. S. Campbell, were the candidates ; Mr. Camp- bell receiving seven votes, and Mr. Birney aix, Mr. C. was de- clared elected. The County of Bay was organized in 1857. The act of orga- nization was entitled '-an act to organize the County of Arenac and parts of other counties, by the name of Bay County," and was approved February 17, 1857. The first election for county officers was held on the 9th day of June. 1857. The whole number of votes cast for Sherifi" was 6 HISTORY Ol" li.VY CITY. IOC) ; of which Nathan Siinons received the entire number. — For County Clerk, Elijah S. Catlin also received the whole, lOG. For Conuty Treasurer there seems to liave been some competi- tion ; James Watson received 100 votes, J. H. Little. James Hutchinson and Pero Roy each receiAed one vote ; from which it is safe to conclude that neither of these three were considered as elected. For Judge of Probate, S. S. Campbell, received the orthodox number, lOG. For Pro.secuting Attorney, Chester H. Freeman received 1 07 ; one voter it is supposed being able to re- main only for that one vote. For Iiegister of Deeds, Theodore M. Bligh, lOG. For Circuit Court Commissioner, Stephen K. A\'right was chosen, and for County Surveyor, James J. MeCor- mick. The first meeting of the Board of Supervisors for Bay e!l, on the 10th of Au- gust, 1858. The Board consisted of two members; George W. Smock, from tlie Town of Williams, and S. S. Campbell, from the town of Hampton ; these two townshins being at that time, the only ones organized in the county. The Circuit Court held its first session after the oi'ganization of the county, on the (ith day of April, 1859, in a building rented of the late James Fraser, where it is still held. PERMANENT SETTLEMENTS. On tlu! first day of March, i8o8, Mr. S. S. Campbell arrived at Lower Saginaw. He found here Cromwell Barney, living v/ith his family in a small log house where the store of Munger i.*«c ( 'O. now stands. Mr. Barney was then engaged in building a house for Mr. Campbell, upon the ground at present covered by the Globe Hotel, which house was so far completed as to be oc- cupied by Mr. C. and his family the same year. Mr. Campbell killed a lai'ge buck on the following day — the second of March — on the opposite side of the river. This was the last of his race for a long while ; for Mr. C. states that he did not see another deer nor the track of one for five years'. — The previoiis winter having been attended with a good deal of msrolIY OF 1!AY CITY. I snow, which became crusted ovei", the 'woivcs and ludiun liuiit- ers chased theiu down and nearly externunated the race • the crust not being* sufficiently strong to bear up the deer, while the wolf dog-, and hunter upon his snow shoes, coidd glide along- over it with ease. The wolves in those years are described as being amazingly plenty, but have been ail the while gradually thinning out in all the lower and centre portions of the State. — The month of March in that year— ISilS — is described by Mr. Campbell as being as warm as is usual for the month of June During the following wintei-, that of 1838-9, Gen. Eosseau, well known at present for tiie part he has taken in the late war, was engaged with his uncle, Dr. IJosseau, in the performance of a surveying contract witii the General Government ; their work being the subdivision of the townships in this vicinity. Other surveying was done by Louis Clawson, whose arrival was in the spring of IS;]!), with a Government contract to sur- vey the whole territory from Au Sauble to Thunder IJay. In the following year, Mr. !']. Jewett made a survey of the Prairie Eoad ; now "Woodside Avenue. On the 19th of July, 1830, Stephen Wolverton, of Erie, Penn- sylvania, whose name the ""Wolverton House" now bears, ar- rived, commissioned to budd a Light House at the mouth of the river. He came on a small vessel, commanded by Capjt. Stiles. The Ijight House was commenced but not finished by him. The work was completed by Capt. Levi Johnson, ^of ;;01eveland, 0., whose arrival was in the year following, or May 14th, 1840. — During the same year, Thomas Eogers, who had been living since 1838, at Portsmouth, removed to Lower Saginaw, where he resided till 1852, when he died of cholera : that disease then prevailing in the settlement. His family still remain in the place. Mr. Eogers was by trade a blacksmith. Other arrivals that year were Seth Willey, who now resides at East Saginaw ; Capt. B. F. Pierce, who engaged in building fish boats and in fishing, and who still resides upon the west side of the river ; Capt. John S. Wilson, whose arrival was upon the 28th of May, IllSTOKV or BAT CITV. and alsci Capt. Kobert McNiff, wlio came upon a small vessel of eight or ten tons burthen, named the Daniel Cooper. During the year 1S41, the place was visited by the brig Rtnu- sey Crooks, Capt. David Stauard ; but whether the vessel brought freight or passengers is not stated. The year, nevertheless, was signalized by the arrival of a number of emigrants. Auioug them are James Busby, and Frederick Durr; the latter a single man» but not averse it seems to matrimony. Xor was he alone of that mind, for a Aliss Olark, a damsel of suitable years, engaged in the honorable pursuit of instilling useful knowledge into the youthful mind, was of the same way of thinking, and became Mrs. Durr, "for better or woi-se." This was the first marrying among exclusively' white pecjple in Tjower Saginaw. Who per- formed the needful ceremony is not stated. Probably the mar- riage fee was absorbed by some magistrate, for there is no mention here of any Protestant clergyman, till after that time. There "as not only a beginning made in the way of matri- mony thus early, but the other memorable experiences of hu- manity, such as being born and dying, were also inaugurated. — The first death was that of Nathaniel B. Burnet, who came here from Pine River, on the western shore of Saginaw Bay, whore he had been building a saw mill. His disease is not given. He was buried without funei-al ceremonies, in what has been known since that time as the Potter's Field. Not long after Mrs. Durr deceased, and these were the only deaths in the settlement for a number of years. The first white child born was Elizabeth Barney, daughter of Cromwell Barney, who is, if still living, and will please to excuse an allusion to a lady's age, some twenty-five years old. The second birth was that of Edward M. Campbell, son of Hon. S. S. Campbell. Other arrivals that year, were the family of Nathan Pierce, and Hon. James G. Birney and family. ]\rr. Birney came from Detroit to this place, and it is well recollected by the country at large in connection with his candidacy for the Presidency of the United States in 1844, that the place of his residence was Lower IIISToUV OF li.VY CITY. 9 Sagiuaw, Michigan. Mr. James J. Mc('oriiiick also macle his residence here ia 1841. Ill tlie follo-fting year, 1842, Frederick Backus came in witli a respectable stock of goods, and commenced a genei-al trade. The growth of the place from 184:2 to 1848 was but slow. — Most of the residents ^vere without large means, and suffered (jften the privations which attend frontier settlements. As a sample of the scale of operations in those days, it is related that Mr. Henry Benson, in the year 184G, living then u[)on the farm of Mr. Campbell, u))on the Cass River, cut and hauled 184 feet of timber, running measure, and floated it down the river, sell- ing it for |;5 5'2 to pay the rent of the said flxrm. Mr. B. is now a stockholder in the First National Bank. The same timber was sold by Mr. Campbell to Hon, James (jr. Birney, and was used by him in building the house on Water Street, now (jcoupied by James Shearer. Mr. Birney resided in this house after its erection, during hi& stay in the place. It is still among the best dwelling houses in the city. In the year 1848, settlers began once more to arrive with greater frequency. Curtis Munger and Edwin Park began the business of cooperage and fishing, and as the place was begin- ning to grow from the lumber trade, they extended their busi- ness to include a grocery establishment, large enough for a commencement, it being 14x1(3 feet, and containing a sufficiency (jf usables for all present demands. In 1852 they built the store xipon the river bank now occupied by Munger & Co. In 1 8.37, A. S. Munger arrived from Elkhart, Ind., and the firm launched into a general mercantile business. Mr. FT. C. Munger served three years as President of the ( 'omniou Council of Bay City, after its incorporation as a village and before it became a city. In October, 1848, J. B. and B. B. Hart, took up their resi- dence in the place, and about the same time 8. S. Barclay and Douglas Sayles. C. C. C. Chilson arrived on the 15th of March, of the same year ; and the next month John H. Yawkey, who was followed a little later by J. T. Calkins and S. J. Clemens. b1 10 IIISTOKV OK KAY CITY. These last two engaged in trade in a small way upon Watei" Street, ('apt. Joliu ('line, of the l)i'i. At the close of the year the following persons ar- rived, viz : Alex. MeKay, J. 8. Barclay, H. McEwen, and Capt. A. S. Pearsons and wife. The year 1S5U and '51 were marked by the arrival of a nvimber of settlei's. I)uringtlie first of these years the arrivals were S. Presly, Clark Moulthrop, ('apt. (ieo. Carpenter, Col. Henry Raymond, Alex. McEwen, James Wat.sou and Thomas "Whitney. This latter person built the first mill in Bangor, in the year 1854. In tlie year IS;).!, tlie professions of Tjaw and Medicine sent on their representatives, although previ- ously to this the settlement had enjoyed the medical services of a lady, who had gained a knowledge of the healing art, of her father,, who was a physician, viz : Mrs. Thomas Rogers. But this year Dr. Geo. E Smith commenced medical practice ; and Mr. James L. S. Eox hung out his shingle, to indi( ate his willingness to do the legal for all parties determined on lawful quarrel. Hon. James Cr. Birney, who arrived some years previously, was a lawyer, but did not engage in practice. Mr. Fo.x was soon joined in the profession by Wm. 1j. Sherman, Esq., and thus a proper antagonism was instituted, such as render law suits inte- resting and " pi'ofi table." The highly necessary and respectable craft which builds integ- umenial covering for men, got itself represented herein the per- son of Edward Williamson, about the same time; who began at once to ply the shears and the needle. Men of various crafts and professions followed. Ilobart Alvord, C. Munger, Martin Watrous ; and then John I)rake and two others, who at once purchased a mill site on the opposite side of the river, of Hon. James G. Birney, and erected a mill thereon in the following year. Mr. C. E. Jennison had arrived the year before, or in 18oU, and had commenced business with James Eraser, in a building not far from where the Eraser House now stands. lie was from Danville, Penn. After a year and a half he bought out histohy of h.vy city. 11 !Mr. Fraser's interest and prosecuted business by himself. He was joined afterwards by his brother, H. W. Jennison, and in 1855, their store as at present occupied was built, as also those now in use by Binder & Co., and by S. Wilkin & Co. Among- the early traders were F. W. Backus, who carried on the business at the f(jot of Center Street, in a building somewhat " old" — though when it became such is not c^uite certain — and which belonged to Mr. VVatrous. Wm. Pomeroy & Co., also commenced trade very early. They were succeeded or joined by J. B. and B. B. Hart ; all near the foot of Center Street. Then came James Fraser, who was followed by Calkins and Clemens, and then by J. H. Little, and Williamson, who carried on their Vjusiness on Water Street, near where the brick store of Mr. Tjord now stands. (Others who engaged in business about the same time, were Hiram 0. McEwen, B. B. Hart, James Mason. E. B. Ferris »& Co., and Dr. Geo. E. Smith, \:\ho united the gro- cery business with his medical practice. The first brick building in the place was a dwelling house, erected by Thomas W. Watkins, on the corner of Washington and Center Streets. T. C. Phillips erected the second brick dwelling, situate on corner of Adams and Tenth Streets. — Subsef[uent to this a brick store had been built on South Water Street, adjoining the Fraser House. Afterwards the County Office Building was erected, at the corner of Center and Jefferson. Others, which the late James Fraser built, were a brick block on Water' Street, also the new hotel which bears his name. LUMBER AND MILLS. The first interest which called people into this valley was that which pioneers all our western land, viz ; trade with the aborig- ones. For the purposes of this traffic, the forests are explored and the rivers are threaded. Reports are thus carried to the older parts of the country, of the features and resources of the new. That the Saginaw River was belted by pine timber in un- limited quantities, would naturally be known at an early day, 12 uisrouv OK i!AV crrv. and the traders would after a while be succeeded liy the cho[i- pers. Consequently after a few years from the tune of the French pioneers another set of men began to think of saw logs and mills. The upper streams which flow into and make the Saginaw are convenient for floating down the logs, but it is an economy to make the 1ol:s into boards where they can easily be transferred to vessels for shipment. Consequently the lower Saginaw was fixed on at an early daj' as the suitable place for mills, and steps were taken to erect them. The first mill in this region was undertaken at Kaw-kaw-lin, by Eraser and Barney, as early as 1844. Hopkins, Pouieroy and Fi'aser, commenced one soon after at Lower Saginaw ■ which was the first one in the place. Catlin and Eraser built one soon after, as did also Campbell and McCoimick ; and about the same time was built the Stanton JVtill, now owned b\- H. M. Bradley and brotlier. There are now in the place thirty mills for the manufacture of lumber, and three for the making of shingles ; all running by steam, and a part of them joined also in the making of salt. The Bridge. — This was built by a stock compau}' in 1864-5- It was opened to the public in April, 180-"). It is 1,864 feet long ; of Brown's patent ; and was built by W. F. Glasby, at a cost of 135,000. The capital stock is 1^50,000. C. W. Gibson is Secre- tary and Treasurer. FiKST National Baxk of Bay City, was organized Janunry 15' 1864, with a capital of |50,000 ; which was increased in Septem- ber, 1865, to ii|;100,000. Its officers are C. W. Gibson, President, and Harvey J. Clark, Cashier. The Bank deals largely in domestic and foreign exchange. — It has done a good business, and made liberal dividends to its stockholders. It was the successor of the banking firm of C. W. Gibson cS: Co.; who commenced business, In the then village, in March, 1803, in a room ten by twelve, in the Union House, corner of Th ird and Water Streets. niSTOUY 01' HAY (ITY. IH City Eailavay. — Tlie Eailway was organized in ]''el)ruary, ISGo. The track to Portsmouth was laid iu the summer and fall of 1865, and the cars commenced running in November, of that year. Its officers are M. IJutman, President, Wm. McEwen, Treasurer, N. B. Bradley, Secretary, and James Fraser, deceased, W. McEwen, Geo. Campbell, M. Butman and N. ¥>. Bradley, Directors. CIVIL HISTORY. The place was known as Lower Saginaw, until l^;")!. It was then changed by an act of the Legislature, which piovided, " That the name of the village of Lower Saginaw, in the Town- ship of Hampton, and the State of Michigan, be and the same is hereby changed to Bai/ Citi/. The act was approved Feb. !<*, 1857, and was to take effect immediate]3\ Bay City was incor- porated as a village in February, 1850. In this act the village comprised all the territory of the settlement of Portsmouth. In 18(55-6, the village of Bay City became "a city," exclusive of Portsmouth, and its first charter election took place on the sec- ond of April, 1865. N. B. Bradley, 'Esq., was the first Mayor. He was succeeded by His Honor, Jas. Watson, who was elected April 2, 1866. The city comprises a territory of three scjuare miles, and has an estimated population of about 5,(>0U. James Fkaser. — A history of the first thirty years of the set- tlement of the Saginaw Valley, without mention of James Era- ser, would be eminently like the play of Hamlet with the part of Hamlet left out. To borrcnv a cant phrase of the day, it might be said of him, more than of any other one man, that for a great part of the period above referred to, " he ran the ma- chine." In the earlier days no one did so much towards bring- ing the advantages of the region before the public, and iu inducing the influx of population and capital. If in the end his efforts were crowned with the possesion of great wealth, it cannot be denied that it was the legitimate re- sult of honorable enterprise directed by uncommon sagacity and 14 nisTouY or li.w (irv. I'orce of cliaraeter ; and that in its acquisitinn, ho was tho in- strument, and always the cheerful and willing one, of contribu- ting very largely to the success aud comfort of man}' others. The biograplier who could have caught and combined the story of James Fraser's life, as it frequently fell from hia lips in his own racy and graphic language in moments of free social inter- course, might have given the world a most amusing and certainly not uninstructive book. "^I'o the student of human nature it -u'ould have presented some new and interesting com.bination of the threads and colors which enter into the warp and woof of life. It is, however, no part of our purpose to attempt anything of the kind. If we can feucceed in presenting an outline which can be recognized, our object will have been attained. .Tames Eraser was as might be guessed from his name a native of the North of Scotland. He was born in extremely humble circumstances and had no advantages of education or fortune beyond what his own enei-gy, wholly unaided, secured him. — It was no part of his manly nature in the day of his wealth and prosperity, to forget his origin, or to exact forgetfulness from others; on the contrary the contrast between the commencement and the close of his career was to him neither a soui'ce of pride and boast, as it is to some self-made men, nor of shame and concealment as perhaps more frequently occurs. lie treated the matter sensibly and rationally, speaking of the scenes of his early youth when he had occasion to illustrate the topic of conversa- tion with neither reserve nor ostentation, and very generally with the desigu and effect of '' setting the tab'e in a roar." His friends might sometimes be amused to hear of his having waded bare legged through the snow to carry a message for a ha-penny — or his taking daily a brick of turf under his arm as a contri- bution to the fire of the village school. But his reminisences of Scotland were not all of this humble type. The writer has fre- (juently heard him refer to the fact, that he was on board the vessel with his gi-eat countryman, Sir AValter Scott, while per- forming a voyage among the islands of the Scottish coast to take notes for the location of his novel " The Pirate." IIISTOKY i)F HAY CITY. 15 Mr. Fraser's einij^ration to tliis countrv occurred in the 3'ear ISl!!) ; he did not come a penniless adventur.?r but brought some -^lO,!)!)!) over with him which lie had managed to accumu- late in .Scotland, and as he used to describe it, felt on landing, as if he could buy the whole northwest. This pleasant delusion was speedily dissipated by his losing the whole amount in un- lucky speculations of his own and of a friend and partner. Finding it necessary to begin again, he entered upon a small business in the city of Detroit and with such success that in two or three years time he had recovered his losses, and had acquired such experience in the new field of operations as to render loss in the future less probable. He now bethought himself of carrying mto executioii a plan he had long meditated of becom- ing a land-owner and a breeder of stock — principally horses. — Havingvisited the iSaginaw country and become satisfiedof its nat- ural advantages he purchased an extensive farm on the banks of the Tittabawasseo, about five miles above Saginaw city, and in the year 18o4, when there was not probably a dozen white people residing within the limits of what was the Saginaw countr}' moved upon it, with his family. He was not destined, however, to make his fortune out of breetl mares and Durham bulls. — That he would have had a measure of success in that line is al- most certain for the word fail was not in his lexicon, but the speculation in lands which at that time broke out over the en- tire west, opened a shorter road to the attainment of wealth; thougjh throuo^hout his life he never lost his fondness for cattle, particularly horses, of which ho was always a kind but some- times a severely exacting master. Into the new movement he entered largely but with such prudence that the reviilsion of 1837 which pro.strated perhaps nine out of every ten who were deeply engaged in western speculations, did not seriously affect liim. His opportunities were of course great and his keen eye had detected in advance the principle points of value in the Yalley. He was early a large proprietor in the site of Saginaw City, and bought and sold the "reserve" on which I(l niSTOKV <»K ({AV I ITV. CarroUtoii was laid out, but his principal and always favorite enterprise was V)uilding up a town at the mouth of the river. He was a nieiuber and the leading- spirit of the 8agin. This grave yard being iu the center of the town was sold for the benefit of the Church. Mr. Michael Daily donated a five acre lot for a grave yard, on the Avest side of the river. — Mr. Wm. I). Fitzhugh of Mt. JSlorris, N. Y.. donated five acres on the east side of the river for a Catholic grave yard. MA80NI(_'. In October, I SCO, a Dispensation was granted by M. W. Grand Master to Wm. 11. McCormick as W. M., Wm. A Bryce, as 8. W. and N. B. Bradley as J. W., for the organization of a Lodge of Free and accepted Masons at Bay City, and a charter w^as granted January 11th, 18G1, by the lamented Vol II. S. Eoberts then M. W. G. M. At the election held in December prior to the granting of the charter, Wm. A. Bryce was elected Master, serving two years, and who was succeeded by N. B. Bradley, the present Master, this being his 8d year in that office. The first meetings of the Lodge were held in a small room iu rear of Bay City Post office, which was conducted by Wm. A. Brvce, and was located in the upper part of the building former- ly occupied by C. R. Jennison, on ground now occupied by the Fraser Hotel Block, from which place they soon after moved into Birney Hall, which was fitted up by them and occupied until 1864, when their present Lodge room was built for them by Mr. Fraser. The regular meetings are held on Wednesday on or before the full of the moon in each month, weekly meetings are held for work. The present officers are, N. B. Bradley, W. M. Ed. Wood, J D. H. H. Hatch, S. W. Isaac Marston, iSec'y. Geo. C. Frey, J. W. C. Munger, Treas. E. J. Carney, S. D. A. W. Tripp, Tyler. Present number of members, 71. HISTORY OF li.VY CITY. 37 Members deceased, H. W.

Templars was organized Nov. 13th, 1860. The Society holds regular meetings every Monday evening. It numbers at present about 100 members. SCHOOLS. Schools do not always wait for shool houses, but they do of necessity wait for pupils, and for teachers to instruct them. There was no school house here till the year 1843-4. But a school, of some five or six pupils, had been taught, by Miss Clark who became Mrs. Drew, some two years after, and until her marriage ; matrimony in this instance, as in many others, arrest- ing a good educational enterprise. Miss Clark's school was kept in a private house. In 1843 a small framed school house was commenced, and com- pleted the next season, at an expense of two hundred dollars. — This building, though humble as to cost and dimensions, was a very useful structui-e ; accommodating not the school alone, but all public, political, moral and religious meetings for several years. In truth it was the public "Hall"' of Lower Saginaw. A Miss Robinson from Flint was the first teacher within its walls. She was succeeded by Carlos Bacon, Rev. T. J. Root and Edward Paring. In 18 — , the house upon Adams street at pres- ent in use was erected. The other teachers in the Public school, 38 IIISTORV OF liAV CITV. as Principals, have been Wm. Gano, E. B. Deniven and Peter S. Ileinordt. It is safe to remark, that with the increase of the place, there has been a correspondent multiplication of pupils attendant upon one Public school. The present system is that of the Union school ; and a very and salutary record of rules for their regulation has been adopt- ed. It is in contemplation to grade the schools, and to make sufficient provision for them as to buildings, at an early day. — The city has at present two large buildings, of wood, for their use. The Globe Hotel, No. 202 Nortli Water Street, is a popular place of resort for all who appreciate good eating and drinking. Meals are served at all hours, upon the European plan. Its present proprietor, Mr. A. N. Eouech, is a model Landlord, and his reputation as a caterer is unimpeached. The Billiard Eoom, connected with the Hotel, is furnished with all the modern im- provements. Residents of Bay City and other places on the line of water transportation can always find a desirable assortment of Crock- ery in all its varieties ; Carpets, Oilcloths, Mirrors, Cutlery, Plated Goods, Filters, &c., &c., at the House-furnishing Empo- rium of Elliott & Harrison, South Water Street, East Saginaw. Their Store is situated on the Dock, just above the Bridge, and the Eiver Boats land in the immediate vicinity, making it the most convenient location for the river trade that could be found. Packages and Parcels are delivered on board the Boats, and eve- rything desirable is done for the convenience of customers. — Hotels and Wholesale Dealers are supplied at liberal prices. Their facilities for supplying the wants of the public are unsur- passed. J. Z. Newcomb commenced business in July, 1S65. His Store, South Water Street, is large and commodious., and well stocked with everything pertaining to the Dry Goods Trade. — Having had a large experience in the Dry Goods Trade in one of the largest cities of Western New York, he fully understands his HISTOKY OF BAY CITY. 39 business, and the interests of bis customers will at all times 1)h safely guarded. He is gentlemanly in his manners, and is a fair and square dealer. We bespeak for him an increased pat- ronage. The Store of Messrs. Cross & Begley, Dealers in Drugs and Medicines, deserves more than a mere passing notice. The pro- prietors are both Physicians of skill and prominence in their profession ; and having had twenty -five years experience in the Drug and Medicine business they may be relied upon with all confidence in putting up prescriptions. To say their Store is arranged in good taste would not be enough ; the design and execution of its interior arrangements would do credit to similar establishments in larger cities. — Its location is central, and the finest one in the city, be- ing in the Fraser Hotel Block, having two fronts, one on Water, and one on Center Street. Doctor Cross, as a surgical operator, ranks among the first in his profession. His recent successful operation in extracting a "fatty tumor" from the back, beneath the shoulder blade, of a young lady of this city, reflects great credit upon him as a surgeon of the first order. Doctor Cross is a graduate of the University of Glasgow, Scotland, and Li- centiate of the Medical Board of Upper Canada. They are both reliable gentlemen, and their store is a model one in all its appointments. The Iron Foundry business of John McDowell was established in 186G, by John Burden, who continued the business until 1862, when John McDowell purchased his interest, and still continues the business. The buildings are large and commo- dious, and eighteen first class workmen are constantly employed. The proprietor is a practical mechanic, and the fact that he has had 35 years experience, is a sufficient guarantee that he fully understands everv branch of his business. BAY COUNTY OFFICERS.
