HISTORY OF LIVINGSTON COUNTY, MICHIGAN.


in its constitution-"to collect and keep in re- membrance the many interesting incidents connec- ted with the early settlement of Livingston County, and thus to be instrumental in handing the same down to future generations ; to cherish and keep alive that peculiar fellow-feeling existing among those who were called to endure together the thousand hardships and privations consequent upon the settlement of a new country ; to afford oppor- tunities for the interchange of thought, and the cultivation of a more social state of feeling in the community ; and, through the medium of public lectures and addresses, to afford a pleasing'and in- teresting entertainment for all."


The first meeting of pioneers, preliminary to the formation of this association, was held, pursuant to previous notice, on the fourth of July, 1871, at the Melvin House, in Howell, from which place it was adjourned to the office of Mylo L. Gay. There it was called to order by Sardis F. Hubbell, on whose motion William C. Rumsey (being the oldest resi- dent of the county present) was called to the chair, and Mylo L. Gay appointed secretary of the meet- ing. After the transaction of some preliminary business, and the appointment of Edward F. Gay, Ezra N. Fairchild, and William C. Rumsey as a committee to draft a constitution, the meeting was adjourned, to reassemble at the court-house in Howell, on the twenty-seventh of the following September, for the purpose of adopting a constitu- tion, and perfecting the organization of the pro- posed association.


At the adjourned meeting the association was fully organized by the adoption of a constitution, and the election of William C. Rumsey as Presi- dent, Mylo L. Gay as Secretary, and Hiram Wing as Treasurer, for the ensuing year. An able and entertaining address (the first given before the as- sociation) was then delivered by the Hon. Josiah Turner, and was warmly applauded, after which the meeting was adjourned to December 20, 1871.


An article in the constitution fixed the third Wednesday in December of each year as the time of holding the annual meetings of the association ; but this was changed soon after, and the time was fixed " on the Wednesday evening of the week in which the Circuit Court for the county of Living- ston shall open, in the month of January in each year, at seven o'clock, P.M., at the court-house in Howell, at which time the officers shall be chosen for one year." The article was again amended January 16, 1878, fixing the Wednesday following the opening of the Circuit Court in June, instead of January, of each year, as the time of holding the annual meeting.


It is understood that the convening of the an- nual meeting during the term of the Circuit Court in Howell is not more for the accommodation of members of the society who may be present as jurors, or witnesses, or litigants, than to insure the presence of Judge Turner, who, although now a citizen of Owosso, is one of the most prominent of the living pioneers of Livingston County, and per- haps the one who exhibits a deeper interest than any other person in the association and its objects. These meetings are regularly held at the court- house, and each one is made peculiarly interesting by one or more addresses from members, reciting half-forgotten incidents relating to the settlement of the county, and the struggles and privations of the brave men and women who first made their homes here in the wilderness.


Below is given a list of those who have become members of the association, from its organization until the present time, viz .:
