| Lake Superior in Michigans Iron country 1800's
In the
winter of 1846-7 we began to get up at Jackson a bellows and other machin-
ery for constructing a forge at the Carp; and in the summer of 1847 a com-
pany of men commenced building the same and continued until March, 1848,
when a freshet carried away the dam. The association was then (1848)
merged into an incorporated company—by some means the pioneers in the
enterprise are now all out."
