Description: "An early history of the church in Michigan and much of it seen through the history of Plum Street, due to their keeping of copious minutes and records during their many years of existence. As the earliest and for many years largest church in the state, its leaders took their roles seriously in propagating the gospel of Christ throughout Michigan. Later generations are blessed that these godly men led in this work and preserved its history so thoroughly." -- note in the contents
