| Lake Superior in Michigans Iron country 1800's
In the following year, 1846, another expedition was fitted out by the Jack
son Iron Company, in charge of Mr. A. V. Berry, to make further explora-
tions. The following extract from a letter from Mr. Berry describes his
experience, and its conclusion relates a fate which has befallen many anoth-
er pioneer. He says: "I found our location much beyond what I had an-
ticipated. After spending twelve days in the woods exploring the surround-
ing country, including what was afterwards known as the Cleveland location,
and building what was called a house, we returned to the mouth of the Carp
with three hundred pounds of ore on our backs.
