TRAGEDIES.
Like all communities where all phases of human nature exist, suicides and other crimes are sure to be committed. The first person who voluntarily took his own life was Thomas G. Bird, who hanged himself on a tree in a piece of woods on section 27. He climbed the body of a bent limb, and put the rope around his neck and dropped off. This occurred about 1840.
About ten years afterwards, a man by the name of Weed also hanged himself within eighty rods of the place of the above suicide. Depression of spirits was the supposed cause in both cases.
An Irishman named Patrick Dunn, who owned a farm upon which he resided, in Bedford township, killed his wife under shocking circumstances, while return- ing from Battle Creek, both being intoxicated, in 185 -. He was tried, and sen- tenced to the State prison for twenty years. He was released in 1875, part of his sentence being commuted on account of exemplary conduct whilst in prison.
We are pleased to acknowledge the courtesies received during the compilation of the history of Bedford from J. P. Markham, Joseph Godsmark, John Meachem, Esq., of Battle Creek, H. M. Marvin, Solon Hale, George B. Hamilton, now of Pennfield, and Mrs. John Godsmark.
BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCHES.
JOHN COX.
John Cox, of Bedford township, was born in Dutchess county, New York, February 13, 1809. His parents changed their residence to Monroe county, New York, and he accompanied them, remaining in that county until 1836, when he emigrated to Michigan, first settling temporarily in Marengo, and then, in 1837, in Battle Creek, and finally, in 1840, on his present homestead, in Bed- ford township, where he has since resided. On the 12th of April, 1831, he married Eleanor, daughter of Jacob Stringham, of Dutchess county, New York, and afterwards a prominent and respected citizen of Bedford township. Mrs. Cox was born October 7, 1812, and is, consequently, three years her husband's junior. They have raised a family of seven children, the names and dates of the births of whom are as follows : Charles J., born July 6, 1832 ; Sarah E., born March 14, 1834; Eliza J., born July 16, 1837; Matilda A., born in June, 1840, and
died in March, 1842; Matilda M., born June 27, 1843, died March 10, 1866 ; Alice M., born October 27, 1846, died January 3, 1868; Eugene J., born March 7, 1855.
Mr. Cox originally bought six hundred acres of land in Bedford, and by selling in parcels to different parties, his purchase became known as " Cox's settlement." He deeded some of his children neat little farms, and still possesses two hundred and seventy-seven acres of well-cultivated land. In politics Mr. Cox is a Repub- lican. His religious sentiment is embraced in the grand old precept, " Do unto others as you would they should do unto you." He never joined any particular religious sect, yet he has always transacted his business honorably, lived temper- ately, and entertains no fears of the eternal hereafter. He has always lent his support to all enterprises tending to the welfare of his township; has been an obliging neighbor, and is in every respect a citizen of whom any community might be proud.

HISTORY OF CALHOUN COUNTY, MICHIGAN.

PHOTO. BY CRISPELL.
GEORGE B. HAMILTON,
the subject of this brief sketch, is one of the few remaining pioneers of Bedford township; and although having recently removed into Pennfield, yet his history properly belongs to old Bedford, where his early trials and struggles were con- fined.
George B. Hamilton was born in Cayuga county, New York, January 9, 1816, and remained there until 1830, when he changed his residence to Wayne county, New York, where he continued to live until his removal to Michigan, in 1837. On the 12th of January of that year he married Miss Angeline E. Lower, who was born in Knox county, Ohio, January 8, 1818. While quite young she moved to Genesee county, New York, and subsequently to Wayne county, where she met and married her husband.
In June, 1837, they left Wayne county, New York, and started on the long and tedious journey necessary to bring them to Michigan from the east in those days. They came by way of Buffalo, thence by lake to Detroit, and from there by the usual mode of locomotion, by team, to Bedford township, and finally settled on section 5, where they erected their log house, and went to housekeeping for the first time. Mrs. Hamilton was an excellent housewife, so that things in the domestic circle went along finely, although, of course, many comforts were lacking, and much hardship was experienced, as is inevitably the case in new settlements. They had a family of ten children, of whom nine survive. By reference to the family record we find that they were born and named as follows :
Charles S., born June 10, 1838; Elizabeth A., born May 8, 1840; Mary L., born October 3, 1842; Esther A., born December 21, 1844; Electa J., born January 29, 1847; Willard D., born October 25, 1849; George H., born May 198
16, 1852, died October 9, 1854; William J., born July 29, 1854; Ella A., born August 21, 1856 ; Clara M., born October 12, 1862.
Mr. Hamilton was present at and assisted in the organization of Bedford town- ship, in 1838, and was elected to the office of justice of the peace at the first annual election of township officers. He retained the position for fifteen years, serving with eminent satisfaction to all persons. He was impartial in the admin- istration of justice, and could marry a couple with as much dignity and make the bond equally as binding as could the best of parsons. There are some yet living who can attest the truth of the above assertion.
He has always led an industrious and temperate life, and as a result has accu- mulated, by his own exertions, coupled most assuredly with the assistance of his admirable wife, a fair competence. He now owns two hundred and fifty-four acres of land, divided as follows : in Bedford, sixty-two and a half acres ; in Ross township, Kalamazoo county, one hundred and eleven and a half; and in Allegan county, eighty acres of good timber land.
In politics he is now a Republican, but up to the Free-Soil times was a Jackson Democrat. In religion himself and wife are members of the Methodist Episcopal church, having been united with that body for nearly forty years. He is a liberal supporter of religious and educational institutions, and never refuses to assist any laudable enterprise whatever.
In character he is honest and upright; in disposition kind and charitable; in manners genial and courteous. He is an affectionate husband, a loving father, and a firm friend. And being such, he holds an exalted place in the estimation of the public, and enjoys the respect of all who know him.
