Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Honourable Peter White: A Biographical Sketch of the Lake Superior Iron Country This book is unlike any other in that it is really a romance though it deals with facts. There is no statement in it that is not result Of patient re search. It has seemed best to write it while it was yet possible, for the in formation which it contains has been secured at first hand. The industrial supremacy of the United States among nations is due wholly to the purity, abundance, cheapness Of mining and low rate of transportation of Lake Su perior ores. There are living chronicles today Of the early development Of this region - men, who as boys went into that country to develop it, then an unbroken wilderness - and from their lips the story has been secured.' Oh viously if not written now it could not, in a little while, be written at all. SO vast indeed has been the progress since that it seems incredible that it should have occurred within the lifetime of one man. Yet Lake Superior, in a com mercial sense, is only fifty years Old. The beginnings, therefore, of this great iron industry are historically important and are Of interest to every citizen in the United States, for there is not a man or woman today living who has not been, directly or indirectly, benefited by the great mineral wealth Of the Lake Superior country and the labor Of Winning it and working it into the arts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Peter White as Man and as Citizen: An Address at the Joint Session of the Classical and Historical Conferences at Ann Arbor, Michigan, March 31, 1909 Peter White, or Peter Quintard White, as one annalist gives his name, was born at Rome, New York, October 31, 1830. He died suddenly in Detroit, the morning of June 6, 1908. His grandfather was Captain Stephen White, of Ballston, New York, Of the revolutionary army. He was in command of Fort Stanwix or Fort Schuyler, as it was usually known, in I 777. It is said, on good authority, that the first flag bearing the stars and stripes was made by his wife and given to the breeze at that fort, August 6 Of that year. His grandmother was Mary Quintard, of Huguenot descent; from her he received the name Quintard. Plain Peter White, however, sufficed for him. His father was Dr. Stephen White. He was one of the first vestrymen of the Zion Protestant Episcopal Church Of Rome, organized in 1825, and Peter was baptized in this church in his early infancy. His mother was Harriette Tubbs, of a highly respectable Rome family. She died when Peter was a small boy - not yet nine years of age - and the family with others, forming quite a colony soon after left the home at Rome and migrated to the then wilds of Green Bay, Wisconsin; the father mean while had taken to himself another helpmeet. That Peter attended school some few years in Green Bay is vouched for, but he seems to have been discontented with the step motherly home and to have abandoned his father's house without leave when he was some thirteen or fourteen years of age; there after he was his own mentor and mast-er. He first went to Macki nac Island, for a time doing any job that presented itself; but he finally found employment in a store, where he remained for some years. Mackinac was a fur-trading station; thousands of Indians came there for annuities or trade; there was much drunkenness, great profanity, and the wide - Open life. Such rude early associa tions, so much strong drink and vile behavior in his environment must have been a terrible test, yet he seems to have escaped with mind and speech singularly free from taint. He strayed awayfrom Mackinac to Sault Ste. Marie, following the copper excite ment of that time, arriving at the Sault the very day that School craft was murdered there; and he used to tell with tragic interest Of seeing the body lying on the ground where Schoolcraft fell.
