Such was my case. DETROIT TO CBlCAOa 323 Dfinrfg-etgljtl) Slag. 72 West Main Street, BATTLE CREEK, MICHIGAN, August Seventeenth. Soon after breakfast I left Marshall for Battle Creek on a freight train, as there were no passenger coaches over the road until the afternoon. This mode of travel, if not the most luxurious, was at least novel, and we made very good time. Between the two places the face of the country hardly changed in ap- pearance. There were the same fields of wheat and corn, and a...t Battle Creek evidently as much business in the flour mills as at Marshall. The creek, uniting here with the Kalamazoo, after a serpentine course of forty miles, supplies the water- power and gives the necessary impetus to trade. I have heard that the tributary won its bellicose name through a little difficulty between the first sur- veyors of public land who came to mark this section and some Indians. The quarrel ended seriously, and, as the tradition goes, two of the Indians were killed. It may have been that the latter were making an attempt to hold the ground, and that it was but one of the many similar occurrences which were to convince the red man that he was superfluous.
