WERE DETAINED ONE DAY AT SANDUSKY WAITING FOR A BOAT. THE UNCERTAINLY OF GETTING AROUND THE LAKES IS SO GOOD THAT WE HAVE CONCLUDED TO TAKE THE CARS (RAILROAD) ACROSS MICHIGAN. WE COULD PROBABLY GET TO MACKINAC BEFORE THE SABBATH BUT IT IS NOT CERTAIN. MY DEAR E. SUFFERED SOME WITH THE HEADACHE DAY BEFORE YESTERDAY - BUT IS QUITE WELL NOW AND VERY HAPPY. THE WEATHER IS FINE. WOULD WRITE MORE BUT I HAVE NO TIME - AS THE BELL IS RINGING. AFFECTIONATELY YOURS IN HASTE, MARCUS HICKS------GENEALOGY----WEATHER----TRAVEL-----RAILROADS----WATERWAYS----- 1 pg-- COURTESY OF A MICHIGAN 3 COLLECTOR More..
