Lenawee County By John J. Adam, February 7th, 1878.
Such, however, I found to be the case, and I have been indebted to F. A. Dewey, Esq., president of our County Pioneer Society, for a perusal of a copy then presented to him by the author, James J. Hogaboain, Esq., of Hudson. I found it a book of about 150 pages, full of incidents of the early days of the settlement of that part of Lenawee county, including also some sketches of the settlement of nine towns on the Hillsdale side of the county line, and in a supplement, besides some other memoranda, there is a copy of the address of S. C. Stacy, Esq., editor of the Tecumseh Herald, giving a full and detailed account of the first two years of Tecumseh as a white man's country, up to July 4,1826. With such ample means for obtaining further detail than could properly be embraced in one short paper, I think that the State Pioneer Society will hold me excused from further specifications in this part of my
address.
