a historical relic in the old McLain

able value. The document is an old
hand-painted map and historical sum-
mary of Mackinaw Island and the St

1s47 and Is rather interesting PEN
chant, evidently the work of some
priest of the pioneer days I'm the upper

The historical reference records the
fact that Mackinaw Island was first
settled in 1919 and that the first boat,
the "Walk i'm. the Water" visited the
island in 1888. The establishment of
the first lighthouse at Detour in 1si7
was evidently the incentive for the
work
