The eastern tract claimed by Michigan as falling within her original boundary, as defined by the ordinance of '87, but within the present jurisdiction of Ohio, lies in the north eastern part of the State of Ohio, bounded east by the wes- tern boundary line of Pennsylvania, north by Lake Erie, and south by the aforesaid line running due east from the southern extreme of Lake Michigan. It includes the greater portion of Ashtabula county, the northern part of Geauga, and a small portion of Cuyahog...a county, supposed to cover an extent often or eleven hundred square miles, or perhaps the amount of thirty townships. * * This estimate upon the extent of the eastern tract is to be regarded or MICHIGAM-. 199 The eastern tract has always been under the jurisdiction of Ohio ; the western tract has ever been under the jurisdic- tion of Michigan until wrested from her by Ohio, sanctioned by the odious and illegal act of Congress of June 15th, 1836. The tract lying within the present jurisdiction of Indiana, was under the jurisdiction of Michigan from 1805 to 1816, when by another illegal act of Congress it was assigned to Indiana.
