Augusta became the wife of James J. Armstrong Of De troit, and Mary married Charles S. Adams, of this city. Alexander Hamilton Sibley was a pioneer in the development of the mines of the Lake Superior district and also those Of California. And he continued to reside in Detroit until his death. Sarah Alexandrine Sibley never married, and is now the only surviving member Of the immediate fam ily. She resides in her home at 432 Jefferson avenue, and is a noble and loved member Of this patrician old family of Michigan. She has been a resident Of Detroit from the time of her birth, and is one of the most venerable, if not the oldest, native daughters of Michigan, being ninety-one years of age at the present time and still taking deep interest in current events, with a mind that is alert and with a gentle presence that has gained to her the love of a wide circle of friends. She is one of the very few whose memory links the early pioneer days of Detroit with those of the present day of Opulent prosperity and progress. Fred eric B., the youngest Of the children, died in Detroit in 1907. Frederic B. Sibley. No work purporting to touch upon the his tory of Detroit and the state of Michigan can be consistent with itself if there is failure to accord special attention and honor to the Sibley family, for few names have been so prominently and so worthily linked with the civic and material development Of this commonwealth and its beautiful metropolis. But Frederic B. Sibley marked for himself a place of his own as one of the representative citizens and influential business men of Detroit, and in his character and services be well upheld the high prestige Of the honored name which he bore.

On October 9th he passed to the land whence no traveler has returned. When Dr. Morse Stewart began practice in Detroit, the state of Michigan and its university were but five years old. Detroit's population was about ten thousand, eight thousand being French who lived by farming, hunting, fishing and collecting furs. The rest were army people and their families, with mechanics needed for such a population. To these must be added a motley swarm of land-lookers, numbers of the suddenly rich, boomers, speculators, sharpers, merchants, lawyers and doctors. By decision of the supreme court any person could become a doctor by assuming the title. As may be inferred fcom the character of the population, the fees of the doctors were meager, if any, and often had to be taken in "store pay," which meant a discount of twenty-five or more per cent, for cash. The practice of medicine was quite unsatisfactory, both from the popular ignorance of sanitary conditions and the absence of those aids which characterize modern practice. With the practical application of the discoveries and inventions which transformed Detroit from a measly little village to the peerless metropolis of to-day, and the practice of medicine from a series of guesses to accurate knowledge based on demonstrated facts, Dr. Stewart kept such close touch that at the close of sixty-four years of continuous labor in his profession his actual practice was wholly modern. Time forbids proof of the proposition that the medical profession of Michigan has been a very large factor in the building of the state. Educated, clean, strong physicians like Dr. Stewart have ever exercised large influence upon currents of state life and invariably for their benefit. In 1852 Dr. Stewart...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Detroit, Vol. 3: Chronicle of Its Progress, Its Industries, Its Institutions, and the People of the Fair City of the Straits Mr. Burton has an eminently judicial mind and a clear and ample knowledge of the science of jurisprudence. He has gained no slight prestige in the practice of law in the earlier period of his independent career, and success in his profession was practically assured had he not found it expedient to direct his energies in other fields. He has handled large and valuable properties in Detroit and Wayne county, and his real estate operations have been most successful, as may be inferred from his intimate knowledge of values. To his fine abstract files recourse is had by practically all leading real estate dealers in the county, as well as by those making individual sales or purchases of realty.

Download or read book A Museum on the Verge written by Jeffrey Abt and published by Wayne State University Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Detroit Institute of Arts is one of America's largest and oldest municipal art museums. However, even as the museum grew into a distinguished collection, there were threats of closure. The DIA has walked a financial tightrope since it opened just over a century ago, and was nearly closed by government funding cuts in the 1970s and 1990s. Now Jeffrey Abt tells how the DIA has had to struggle to maintain its fine art collection with barely enough income to remain open. A Museum on the Verge goes behind the scenes at the DIA to disclose the political, economic, and social forces that shaped the museum from its founding to the present day. Drawing on new archival research, Abt reveals that the growing discrepancy between the museum's size and its operating budget was the result of a century of ad hoc solutions to institutional problems that left the DIA vulnerable to annual income losses -- especially reductions of government funding. He also explains its complex relations with private and government entities and delineates the integral role of the museum's support group, the Founders Society. Abt's account is supplemented by a wealth of material, including legal documents and numerical data taken at five-year intervals from the 1880s through 2000 that is presented in both tables and graphs. The data, which comprehensively survey vital statistics such as attendance, collections growth, and finances, provide a rich resource for comparative research on other museums. As a case study of a prominent public institution, A Museum on the Verge offers an invaluable research model for scholars and museum professionals alike.
