Coming to Michigan
But after many days of anxiety we received all our provisions, and were able to assist many of our needy neighbors, and received in return their heartfelt thanks and blessing. The Indians were all around us, and some of them caused us trouble by their treachery and stealing, and we had to take care that nothing was left around within their reach. As a rule, however, they were generally honest in their dealings, never taking advantage only when it was taken of them.
The years have rolled away. The country has become more thickly populated, and now we have before us all the benefits and blessings of the earth, with happiness for our portion instead of woe and want.
