Volume 14 http://www.loc.gov/resource/lhbum.7689c Library of Congress HON. WILLIAM F. VILAS WILLIAM W. WIGHT, LL. B. PREFACE. Although beyond the borders of our commonwealth, Mackinac is a focal point in the history of Wisconsin. Commanding the approaches to Lakes Superior and Michigan, it necessarily was, during the French and English domination, and the early years of American possession,—the period of the fur trade,—the political and military center of this region. The Editor has, in “The Story of Mackinac,” sought to review the salient points in the picturesque career of that famous frontier stronghold, and to correct, it may be, some popular misconceptions thereof. In her “Reminiscences of Early Days on Mackinac Island,” the late Mrs. Baird discourses, most charmingly, of men, women, and manners on the “beauteous isle,” during her girlhood there—the second and third decades of the present century. The lively description of her bateau trip from Green Bay to Mackinac, in 1825, is a fresh and welcome contribution to the romantic side of Wisconsin history. Military life in Territorial Wisconsin must have possessed a certain charm to all who participated in it. Mrs. Kinzie, in Wau-bun , and Mrs. Van Cleve, in Three Score Years and Ten , have given us, in sprightly manner, vivid pictures of garrison life at the early Wisconsin forts, which our historians are fond of reproducing. We are glad to be able, in this volume, to furnish new material in that field. In his “History of Fort Winnebago,” A. J. Turner presents the result of a special study of the fortunes of this old-time wilderness post, and has marshalled before us the many notable men and women who are connected with its story. The “Fort Winnebago Orderly Book, 1834–36,” follows as an illustrative document, serving to strengthen x the picture. A. A. Jackson, in his “Abraham Lincoln in the Black Hawk War,” for the first time fully sets forth the facts concerning Lincoln's itinerary during that campaign, and incidentally—on the authority of Lincoln himself— establishes the actual route of Atkinson's army, in ascending the Rock River, in Wisconsin. Collections of the State Historical Society of Wisconsin. Volume 14 http://www.loc.gov/resource/lhbum.7689c Library of Congress “An English Officer's Description of Wisconsin in 1887,” is by the well-known writer, Capt. Frederick Marryat; with practised pen, he wrote one of the best contemporary descriptions of early travel along the Fox-Wisconsin waterway, and incidentally of life at the three military posts, which has come down to us.

After mail balloting, the final vote of 231-14, with one abstention, was announced on Aug. 5 in a letter to bishops from Msgr. David Malloy, USCCB general secretary. The change, which must be confirmed by the Vatican Congregation for Clergy, would remove from the catechism a sentence that reads: “Thus the covenant that God made with the Jewish people through Moses remains eternally valid for them.” In June, a group of students danced during St. Aloysius Day festivities, part of the celebration at St. Aloysius Gonzaga High School in Kenya.

Entered according to an act of Congress, in the year lb"T:?, by N. :MATSON, In the Clerk's office of the District Conrt of the United States, in and for Northern District of Illinois. -:---.:::--------- ~---------·· FLIGHT OF SET'l'LEUS, INTRODUCTION TO PART FIRST. The writer ot the following story came to Bureau soon after the settlement had been commenced, and experienced some of the inconveniences common to the settlement of a new country. At that time, the prairies of this county were in a state of nature, without roads, fields, or dwellings, a part of which had not yet been surveyed. The only marks of civilization to be seen were a few log cabins, built here and there in the edge of the timber, and throughout the county there was scarcely a school, or meeting house; not one surveyed road, nor one stream bridged. Indian trail1.-­ were still to be seen, and traveled both by whites and Indians. The writer was .well acquainted with the first settlers. and from them much of this story was obtained. He also had frequent interviews with Indians, who had spent their youthful days on ~ureau, and from them many important facts were gathered. There are some incidents narrated in this story, which were unknown to the early settlers, but the most of them were well known, and will be confirmed by persons still living. Efforts were made to harmonize the early traditions of this county, as well as the state­ ments of Indians, with well established facts, and with a few exceptions it has been successful.

As members of the Waupaca Historical Society have long appreciated, the Cynthia Holly Room is a fine place for a speaker to present as it seats about 50 people, has comfortable chairs in a theater arrangement (or if desired a table arrangement), and is not so large as to need a microphone. Following an introduction by Jerry Chappell, Nelson’s presentation readily captured the attention and advanced the knowledge of over 30 Book Festival attendees who were able to closely study his slides on ten styles of house architecture. Wendell showed about three examples of each style as he pointed out critical identifying and differentiating features of homes, including Italianate, Greek Revival, Victorian Eclectic, Gambrel-roofed, Tower, Square, Cement Block, and Stucco architecture. Afterward, a number of copies of Wendell’s classic 1983 book Houses That Grew were sold.

    All Rights Reserved, 2011, Paul L. Hedren [updated 9-19-11] WHERE ARE THEY NOW? Burial places of officers, physicians, and other military notables of the Great Sioux War compiled by Paul L. Hedren Introduction The names in this “Where Are They Now?” compilation are drawn from Great Sioux War Orders of Battle: How the United States Army Waged War on the Northern Plains, 1876-1877 (Norman, Okla.: Arthur H. Clark Company, 2011), which acknowledges in context every officer and physician engaged in this Indian war. The intent here is to identify the dates of death and burial places of these individuals. The ranks and affiliations given are timely to the war, not to later service. The dates of death and burial places provided are largely drawn from the sources noted at the end. Details that are probable but unconfirmed are noted within parentheses. This compilation is a work-in- progress and I welcome additional information and/or corrections and will strive to keep the file current. Please write me in care of <[email protected]>.

    Wisconsin: Our State, Our Story Chapter 5 Additional Activities Becoming Wisconsin: From Indian Lands to Territory to Statehood Activity5 5.1: Whose Land? A Story of Black Hawk Teacher Materials Preparation/Organization It will take several days to complete the full activity, since students will need several rehearsal sessions before carrying out their performance. Depending upon time constraints, you might want to devote some time for the preparations each day for a week or so. (Note: If you and students wish, you might want to invite other classes or even friends and families to the performance.) In terms of organization, it should not be difficult to get the whole class involved in the production, since there are 16 actors and also directors, set designers, stagehands, and prop masters. You will want to have enough copies of Student Pages 1–10 for all students involved. A number of readily available or easily made items will also be needed: • two chairs • a desk • a large cloth sack • a blanket • an inkwell (or similar object) • a long sheet of paper • several sheets of writing paper • life-size drawing of several corn stalks • shovel or garden hoe (or two broomsticks) • map of the United States Procedure 1. Select those students who will be actors and inform students of the parts they will be playing. Also assign students to jobs as directors, set designers, prop masters, and stagehands. 2. Hand out scripts to those who will be acting, highlighting their parts for them. Also give out copies of the script to students who will be helping you direct, designing and making sets, preparing props, and serving as stagehands.
