Early Detroit
The joyous scenes of sunny France were lived over again on the banks of the Detroit. Upon the bright green sward young men and fair maidens danced to the music of the violin, and
" Soft eyes looked love to eyes which spake again. "
And here, in almost Arcadian simplicity and happiness—in loving social intercourse, and in the exercise of a simple but generous hospitality—free from ambition and its cares, but without high aims, lived and passed away the first two generations of the founders of Detroit.
