Summers, the prairie grass upon what is now the village of Berrien Springs was as high as a man's head. As the incidents of Joseph Feather's settle- ment have been presented in another part of this chapter, here will be told simply what befell the Freed family, since Feather pursued a separate line of action upon arriving at Berrien. Henry Freed located 80 acres of land upon section 23, while Abram located a farm upon section 24. The elder Freed leased a piece of laud (about four acres) near th...e river, and, assisted by the boys, put in a crop of corn and buck- wheat, his family continuing to reside in the cabin erected upon their first arrival. While these crops were growing, Henry Freed and young Summers used daily to go out to the former's farm to clear land (having cut a road from Berrien to the farm) and build a cabin, as a move towards the removal of the family thereto. Meanwhile, Abram Freed worked upon his farm, all hands usually returning at night to the Freed " mansion" near the river.
