| Lake Superior in Michigans Iron country 1800's
The roar
of the improvised cannon mingled with the hurrahs of the multitude, and
the air was filled with enthusiasm; altogether it was a great day for Mar-
qnette and one long to be remembered. Dr. J. J. St. Clair, the supervisor
of the town, was made president of the day, and opened the celebration at
the grand stand with an appropriate address. Mr. George S. King, who-
was the superintendent of the Sunday schools in procession for the day,
delivered a suitable address to his part of the audience. I had the honor of
reading the Declaration of Independence.
