Letter of Transmittal Introductory LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL STATE OF MICHIGAN Office of Commissioner of Mineral Statistics Calumet, April 1, 1908. HON. FRED M. WARNER, GOVENOR OF THE STATE OF MICHIGAN: Sir:—In fulfillment of the duties of my office, I have the honor to submit herewith the following report upon the mines and mineral interests of the State for the year ending March 31, 1908. Respectfully your obedient servant, James L. Nankervis, Commissioner of Mineral Statistics. INTRODUCTORY. HON. FRED M. WARNER. GOVERNOR STATE OF MICHIGAN In its varied forms of development and operation, no STATE OF MICHIGAN interest has lately excited more curiosity and wide- spread attention among business people and the general public than the industries of mining and MINES metallurgy. These industries during the past few years AND have prospered and grown at an unprecedented rate MINERAL STATISTICS and to an extent practically beyond ordinary comprehension and almost beyond belief. Every now and then, the discovery of new mineral bearing districts are announced by prospectors, which are developed and put in shape to send out an economic product at record speed. Financial stringency or not, there is always a plenty of money within reach to finance a mining proposition of merit. As a natural consequence, the mineral and metal producing capacity of the country is expanding in a wonderful manner and in practically all directions. The evolution of mining and metallurgy has kept pace with trade and commerce. Progress toward By James L. Nankervis bigger and improved results has been continuous and Commissioner of Mineral Statistics substantial. The success achieved all over the land has been little short of phenomenal. In the modern way of doing things, industrial enterprises are developed and BY AUTHORITY put in condition to make returns, unless of very large proportions, in an almost incredible short period of time.

    The Story Chapter 1 The McGregor Story TThe McGregor story starts in 1877 when Amasa Stone, the legendary capitalist and preeminent Cleveland philanthropist, and his wife, Julia, built and endowed one of the first private organizations in Cleveland specifically for the care of seniors — the Home for Aged Women, later to be renamed the Amasa Stone House, on what is now East 46th Street and Cedar Avenue. After training as a carpenter and building contractor in his native Massachusetts and moving to Cleveland in 1850, Amasa turned his considerable ambition to transportation. He built the Lake Shore Railroad, which ran between Erie, Pennsylvania and Cleveland as part of the New York Central. During the post-Civil War industrial boom, he found himself among America’s elite railroad builders. He also worked with his brother-in- law, William Howe, in designing a truss bridge to sustain heavy loads of rail cargo over short spans, like small gullies and ravines.

In the foreground are the Calumet and Hecla stamp mills with the stacks of the power house. Photo courtesy of Michigan Tech Archives. Acknowledgments The authors thank Michigan Sea Grant for funding to enable this integrated assessment. Without the support, insights, historical knowledge and perspectives offered by Sharon Baker, MDEQ site coordinator for many years, this project would not have been possible. We also owe tremendous thanks to the two students, Ankita Mandelia and Emma Schwaiger-Zawisza, whose thesis research contributed major parts of this report. Other people who have contributed to our understanding of the site and its history are too numerous to mention individually, but include state and federal agency personnel, colleagues at MTU and the Keweenaw National Historic Park, TLPAC members, and community members. Administration and staff members at Sea Grant were very helpful in administering the grant, creating and maintaining a web site for the project (http://www.miseagrant.umich.edu/torchlake/), and facilitating compilation of the final report. The assessment was greatly improved thanks to the contributions of eight anonymous reviewers representing agency, scientist, and local citizen viewpoints.

The freighter went down in a storm on November 10,taking with her the Steel on the Bottom: Great Lakes Shipwrecks crew of The Isaac M. Cox as well as many other area wrecks. Due to its economic success it became the prototype for the Great Lakes bulk freighter, a very large and important class of commercial ship that made possible the cheap transport of raw materials for the steel industry, including iron ore, coal and limestone. The ship sank immediately and the four crew on board drowned. Lighthouse Tales will appeal greatly to anyone interested in the wonders of the Great Lakes, historians, sailors, lighthouse fanatics and people looking for a roaring good story. A bulk freighter that sank off Michigan Island. This book is sure to please both the Great Lakes history and shipwreck buff. During this early maritime history, many ships departed port but failed to arrive at their destination. However, historian Mark Thompson, the author of Graveyard of the Lakes has estimated that there are over shipwrecks on the bottom of the Great Lakes. When a harbor tugboat directed the Hadley to divert to Superior harbor, the captain of the Hadley ordered an immediate turn to port, failing to notice the direction of the Wilson or to blow the required whistle signals. It is only available at various locations stores in the city or drop me an email and I am sure we can work out a deal.

The industry that lasted in the region over 100 years has been profoundly studied, but the industrial heritage has received less attention. This study is interested in the memory of mining and in the future prospects of locals right after the closure of the mines in 1969. This study is data-driven, using the interviews conducted within the Finnish Folklore and Social Change in the Great Lakes Mining Region Oral History Project by the Finlandia University in 1973-1978. The method is thematic analysis, which is used to identify, analyze and report themes related to talk on the mines, mining, the 1913 Strike, and the future. Two main themes are negative and positive talk. Within negative talk, three sub-themes are identified: insecurity, disappointment and loss. There is more negative talk within the data set, especially because of the 1913 Strike and the Italian Hall Disaster, which were still commonly remembered.
