I am not aware that any other competing point had been thus liberal.
The principal competing points were Detroit, Lansing, Owosso, Lyons, Jackson, and several others, mostly along the line of the Central Railroad. As to who suffered the greatest disappointment, I am unable to say. I felt that I had done my duty to my constituents and to this part of the State, and upon learning that I had been instrumental in saving the school section to the State, I considered myself well paid for all the efforts I had made. And I have since been informed that the school fund has realized over a
hundred thousand dollars from that section.This seems to cover the principal parts of the matter in which 1 was directly a participant, and also the points upon which your committee desired information.
