Lenawee County

By John J. Adam, February 7th, 1878.

His place he calls Pleasant Valley it is four miles south of us, through an open country, where you may drive a post coach without cutting a tree. He has a large, fine family, and will be here with all of them in May. A Friend has bought near him, who will be here in the spring; and they bid fair to have a large Friend's settlement, and we anticipate much from the society of such neighbors." Such, I suppose, General Brown thought would be acceptable news to his mother, who was herself a staunch member of the Society of Friends, as well as the others of the family, at his late home in the State of New York. Mr. Comstock was elected in 1827, the first supervisor of the town of Logan, and in 1835 was chosen as one of the eight delegates from the county to form the first state constitution; and he also served for one or more terms as supervisor of the township of Raisin.
