To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
James Ful- ton was the first purchaser of the site on which the city of St. Clair now stands, which in process of time became the property of Thomas Palmer, of Detroit. Mr. Fulton made the purchase with the view of making it the county seat of St. Clair county, and i\Ir. Palmer labored hard to accomplish the same end. Fulton and Palmer were opposed by Captain Samuel Ward, who wished the county seat established at or near his tract of land, which now embraces Alarine City. In the county seat war..., my father favored St. Clair. Charles Noble, of the city of Monroe, one of the commissioners appointed to decide on the proper place for the county seat, called on my father on his way up to examine the two pro- posed places. ]\Iy father gave his reasons for favoring the town of St. Clair ; our first county seat war ended by the location of the county gov- ernment at the latter point. Captain Eber Brock Ward, late of Detroit, was but a mere child at this time, and had no connection with the business of his uncle.
