Coming to Michigan
The departed have traveled that road which is destined for all men once to pass, and as they look down from their heavenly homes, may we not entertain the thought that they join us in our greeting?
We are here to-day in the midst of luxury, surrounded by all that combines to make life happy, and as we look out over the beautiful streets of this city, and then back, as it were, through the vista which reaches into another generation, our minds are filled with memories of scenes of the past. Then let us recount briefly a few of those scenes through which we wandered, and review the long and weary paths over which, in bygone days, we plodded our weary way through the dark and almost impenetrable forests of this now beautiful State, and. in so doing we may discern some of the trials and tribulations of the Michigan pioneers.
