James c. Robinson gave an entertaining
account Sunday evening at the Covenan-
ter church of his recent trip to Beaver
island. While spending a few days at
Petoskey, Mich, for his health he and
the Rev. NJ. A. Gault took a trip on the
steamer City of Grand Rapids TO Beaver
island. which is in Lake Michigan, about
no ha icla nd
is about eighteen miles long and from
three to five miles wide. 1t rises about
fifty feet above the lake and is a remark
ably beautiful island. Mr.. Robinson
stated that but few people reside there,
although nature has done much TO make
1T a pleasant place of abode. Tradition
SAYS that it was settled in 1908. It's chief
distinction is the fact that il was the
home Of a mormon settlement, under the
leadership Of Jesse Strang, from 1S47 to
1858. When defeated by Brigham Young
for a place in the mormon church he
organized a rival church al Burlington,
but finally the feeling against him be-
came so strong that he was killed Mr..
Robinson's account of this mormon set
tlement was highly interesting and he
closed his entertaining address by stating
that "as the shores or Beaver island
faded from our sight we felt more than
ever impressed that righteousness ex-
alteth nation, but sin is reproach to
