The lonia, Stanton & Northern Railroad Company, comprising the line from lonia to Big Rapids, was organized in 1872 by parties in the interest of the Detroit, Lansing & Lake Michigan Railroad Company, and was subsequently consolidated with that company. The road was opened for business from Stanton Junction to Stanton in February, 1873, and was subsequently extended from time to time until 1880, when it was completed to Big Rapids. The Belding branch from Kiddville to Belding was built by local interests and acquired by the Lake Michigan road in 1876.


In 1875 the Detroit, Lansing & Lake Michigan Railroad Company defaulted in the payment of interest on its mortgage bonds, the trustees named in the mortgage took possession of the property under the terms of the mortgage, and, pending the reorganization, the property was operated by Hon. James F. Joy, as agent for the trustees. On December 26, 1876,

the purchasers of the road, under judicial sale, filed articles of association with the secretary of state at Lansing, Michigan, of the Detroit, Lansing & Northern Railroad Company. This company took over all the property, rights and franchises of the Detroit, Lansing & Lake Michigan Railroad Company.


The Saginaw Valley & St. Louis Railroad Company, from Saginaw to St. Louis, was constructed by Saginaw parties and opened from Paines Junction to St. Louis in January, 1873. The Saginaw Valley & St. Louis Railroad Company entered into a contract with the Jackson, Lansing & Saginaw Railroad Company, and the Michigan Central Railroad Company. giving the Saginaw Valley & St. Louis Railroad Company perpetual rights over the road of the Jackson, Lansing & Saginaw Railroad Company. between Flint and Pere Marquette crossing and Paines Junction, including the terminal facilities of the Jackson, Lansing & Saginaw Railroad Com- pany in Saginaw, on payment of the sum of $40,000.


In 1879 all the stock of the Saginaw Valley & St. Louis Railroad Company, except a few shares which could not be located, was purchased by parties in the interest of the Detroit, Lansing & Northern Railroad Con- pany, and the road was operated by the Detroit, Lansing & Northern Rail- road Company, but the accounts were kept distinct from the accounts of the Detroit, Lansing & Northern Railroad Company.


The Saginaw & Grand Rapids railroad from St. Louis to Alma was built by the stockholders of the Saginaw Valley & St. Louis railroad in March, 1879, as an extension of the Saginaw Valley & St. Louis railroad.


The Saginaw & Western railroad from St. Louis to Howard City has a typical history. The Chicago. Saginaw & Canada Railroad Company built the line from St. Louis to Cedar Lake in 1875. That road was placed in the hands of D. D. Erwin, as receiver, and by him leased to John .1. Elwell, who extended the road to Lakeview in 1878 and 1879. In 1883 the road was sold under order of the court and was purchased by parties in the interest of the Detroit, Lansing & Northern railroad. and in August. 1876. was opened from Lakeview to Howard City, under the name of the Sagi- naw & Western Railroad Company. The branch from Greenville to Stan- ton was completed in 1901 and was built by Carland & Warner, of Toledo. Ohio.


Some years after the organization of the Detroit, Lansing & Northern Railroad Company. in 1876, the property of the company in Montcalm county was taken over by the Detroit. Grand Rapids & Western, and in

1899 it was consolidated with the Flint & Pere Marquette and became part of the Pere Marquette, under whose management it has since been operated.


PROPOSED TROLLEY LINES.


Several different trolley lines have been proposed through Montcalm county but so far none has been built. The people of the county have been extremely interested in these various projects and would undoubtedly sup- port any enterprise of this kind in a very liberal way.


.As early as May 31. 1901. the Stanton Weekly Clipper reprinted the following dispatch from Saginaw: "The project to connect Saginaw and Grand Rapids by means of an electric railway is now assured of success. the company having been incorporated with $1,000.000 capital and the bonds having been taken by an eastern syndicate. The route will be from Grand Rapids to Greenville, thence to Stanton. Edmore, Alma and St. Louis. The line from Stanton to Grand Rapids will be built first, then the portion from Saginaw to Alma, and the intervening link will probably not be completed until next year. Work is already under way on the western portion of the road. It will be known as the Grand Rapids & Saginaw electric railroad. The company is incorporated under New Jersey laws. and will soon be incorporated in this state."


Although the building of this line seemed "assured." and although everything recited actually had been done. the road was never built and the enterprise still awaits the organizing genius of the entrepreneur.


More recently a movement has been started by the leading capitalists of Muskegon and Casnovia to build an electric road through Montcalm county. The route of the proposed trolley line passes through Casnovia, near White Fish lake, through Pierson. Trufant. Langston, Stanton, Crys- tal. Ithica. St. Charles and on to Saginaw. How soon this road will be built is a matter of speculation or guesswork in which one man's guess is as good as another. There can be no question of the pressing need of trolley service as an outlet for this splendid section of the state.


CHAPTER XXV.


MONTCALM COUNTY IN THE CIVIL WAR.


The state of Michigan furnished 90,048 troops for service in the Civil War, of which Montcalm county furnished approximately 640 troops of all classes. Of these 640 troops, 350 were credited to the county under the enrollment system and 287 enlisted prior to September 19, 1863.


From November 1, 1864, until the close of the war, there were 47 enlistments in the army from Montcalm county and 26 recruited from the draft during the same period. Of the 73 enlistments and drafts, subsequent to November 1, 1864, there were 70 for one year's service and 3 for three years' service. The total enrollment on December 31, 1864, from Mont- calm county was 527 and the quota charged to Montcalm county in the call of December 19, 1864, was 80 troops.


The military census of September 10, 1862, showed that Montcalm county had returned 240 troops in June previously, under state law and that there were at that time 573 male persons living in Montcalm county between the ages of eighteen and forty-five, and therefore subject to draft.


During the entire war Montcalm county furnished troops to fifteen dif- ferent regiments of infantry, including one reorganized regiment; eight regiments of cavalry; one regiment of colored troops; one regiment of United States sharpshooters; one regiment of engineers and mechanics, and one regiment of Michigan sharpshooters. By far the largest number of troops furnished any one regiment by Montcalm county was recruited by the Twenty-first regiment, the rolls of which credit 137 soldiers to Montcalmn countý.


THE TWENTY-FIRST INFANTRY.


The Twenty-first Regiment, Michigan Volunteer Infantry, was recruited from Barry, Ionia. Montcalm. Kent, Ottawa, Muskegon, Oceana, Newaygo, Mecosta, Mason, Manistee, Grand Traverse, Leelanaw Manitou, Osceola, Emmet, Mackinac. Delta and Cheboygan counties. The rendezvous of the regiment was at lonia. recruiting having been begun on July 15, 1862. The regiment was mustered into the service of the United States on September

4, 1862. The regiment left its quarters at Ionia on September 12, 1862, in command of Colonel Stevens, 1,008 strong, under orders to report at Cin- cinnati. It was immediately rushed forward into Kentucky via Louisville and soon became actively engaged in the realities of the war. A beautiful silk flag was provided by the ladies of Ionia. This flag was carried through all the engagements of the regiment, brought back to the state, and at a cele- bration on July 4, 1865. was formally returned, on behalf of the regiment, to the ladies by the Hon. John Avery, of Greenville, the highest ranking officer of the regiment present, and was received on behalf of the ladies by the Hon. John B. Hutchins, of Ionia.


On October 8, 1862, the Twenty-first regiment bore an important part in the battle of Perryville, Kentucky, suffering a loss of 24 wounded, I mor- tally, and 3 missing, Colonel Stevens being among the wounded. The Twenty-first regiment participated in encounters with the enemy at Perry- ville, Kentucky, October 8. 1862 : Lavergne, Tennessee, December 27, 1862; Stewart's Creek. Tennessee. December 29, 1862; Stone's River, Tennessee, December 29, 31, 1862, and January 1. 2, 3. 1863; Tullahoma, Tennessee, June 24, 1863; Elk River, Tennessee, July 1, 1863; Chickamauga, Tennes- see, September 19, 20, 21. 1863; Chattanooga.

March 16, 1865: Bentonville, North Carolina. March 19. 1865.


The final reports of the regiment showed that it had a total membership of 1.477 officers and men, while its losses were I officer and 40 men killed in action. 2 officers and 31 men died of wounds. and 3 officers and 291 men died of disease-a total of 3.368.

The Eighth Regiment, Michigan Volunteer Infantry, to which Mont- calm county furnished a little less than fifty men, was ordered to rendezvous at Grand Rapids. August 21, 1861, and after being ordered to Ft. Wayne was mustered into the service of the United States on September 23, 1861. The regiment participated in the second battle of Bull Run, Antietam, Fred- ericksburg, the campaign around Richmond and the capture of Petersburg.


There were approximately sixty enlistments from Montcalm county in the Tenth Michigan Cavalry, the rendezvous of which was at Grand Rapids. The regiment was raised under the direction of Col. Thaddeus Foote, of the
