Lenawee County By John J. Adam, February 7th, 1878.
And the board were authorized to fix the site of the county buildings, and to negotiate for the erection thereof a loan not exceeding ten thousand dollars, for a term of not over ten years, and at an interest not exceeding seven per cent, per annum. In the same year, by an act approved seven days later, the village of Adrian was incorporated as a civil municipality, being the first chartered village in the county. This was followed, in March, 1837, by an act to incorporate the village of Tecumseh— both acts taking effect on the first Monday of May succeeding the passage of the respective acts. In 1853, the village of Adrian, including some adjoining lands from the townships of Adrian and Madison, was incorporated as a city, superseding the township governments, on and after the first Monday of April following, so far as lands embraced within the city limits were concerned.
