Early Detroit
I should bring strongly into the foreground Antoine De La Motte Cadillac, its founder, its early and brave defender and steadfast friend. His was not in the ordinary sense a successful life, but rather one of hardship, privation, anxiety, toil and bitter disappointment; but nobly and with unflinching courage he wrought at his great work, and proudly and indissolubly has he connected his name with this beautiful City of the Straits and with the early history of our noble State. Tenderly and with filial reverence let us cherish his memory and perpetuate his fame.
