The township lauds are gently undulating, rich in all the consti- tuents of a productive soil and well settled. The district is watered by the Tittabawassee, which forms its northeastern boundary. Swan creek flows through the township from the northwest through sections 5, 9, 16, 22, 27, and 34; McClellan creek, Williams creek, and a few others are minor streams.


The Saginaw Valley & St. Louis railroad runs through the south- ern sections, while the Jackson, Lansing & Saginaw railroad runs southwest from Tittabawassee station through the southeast quar- er of section 36.


The saw-mill at Swan Creek station, two brick yards, a wagon shop, store and hotel are among the business places of the town.

TOWNSHIP OF TITTABAWASSEE.


This section of the Saginaw Valley comes next to Saginaw City in the order of settlement, is equal to it in the quality of its lands, and may be termed the third township in the order of population and wealth. The Tittabawassee river enters the township at the northwest quarter of sec. 7, flows southeast through secs. 17, 16, 21, 28, 27 and 34, where it leaves the district. Numerous small creeks, together with the north branch of Swan creek and the head waters of Cannon creek, water the township.


The Flint & Pere Marquette railroad divides the town equally; it enters at the northeast quarter of sec. 36, runs northwest through secs. 25, 26, 23, 22, 21, 16, 8, 7 and 6, with a depot at Freelands, in the geographical center of the township. The land is compara- tively well settled, there being a population of 1,506 returned by the census of June, 1880.


The principal manufacturing industry of the township is the Bond saw-mill, in the northeast quarter of sec. 7, on the line of the F. & P. M. R. R.


The villages comprise Freelands and Tittabawassee, the nuclens of what may in time be a center of population in the southwest quarter of sec. 6, on the line of railroad. The town may be con- sidered purely agricultural, and as a farm country will compare very favorably with the old settled townships of the eastern coun- ties. The inhabitants form a particularly cultivated community, earnest in every cause they espouse, and fully capable of drawing forth all the great resources of their beantiful land.


ORGANIC.


An act to organize the township of Tittabawassee, passed by the Legislature during the spring session of 1840, was approved Marclı 30, 1840. This act directed " That the counties of Midland, Gra- tiot, and all the towns, according to the United States survey, north of town 12, in range 1, 2 and 3 east of the meridian, as far north as town 16, be, and the same are liereby set off and organized into a separate township by the name of Tittabawassee, and the first township meeting shall be held at the house of Obadiah Crane, in said township." A review of the names of the officials chosen at the first township election will suffice to show that the principal settlers were of that class which could master every ob- stacle, whether it was of a physical or political character.

in them. The Catholics and Episcopalians attend the churches of Saginaw or Bay City generally. The township cemetery is located in the northwest quarter of the southwest quarter of section 8. It is the property of the people, is well ordered, and forms, with the schools and churches, a living remembrancer of the occupation of the township by a people who honor their God and their dead.


Seventh-Day Adventist Church .- About the 15th of February, 1867, it was announced that an Adventist named M. E. Cornell, would give lectures on Bible subjects at the school-house. Subse- quently he gave lectures for a month or more and aroused such in- terest in his belief that a meeting of citizens and believers was called March 20, when a subscription for a house of worship was taken up. This churchi was to be known as "S. D. Adventists' house of worship," and to be controlled by them, but to be opened for funerals and on other ocasions to all denominations. A liberal amount was subscribed, and several sites offered free. A commit- tee on building was chosen: H. T. Hawley, W. H. Hilton and J. A. Munger; who commenced at once by selecting a site offered by Wm. Roeser, on which to erect a building 40x60 feet, letting the contract to Messrs. Babcock and Maycumber for $1,200, with ma- terial furnished. The work went on steadily until completion in October of same year, and nearly all paid for at a cost of about $3,300. There was no Church organization. Elders Cornell and Lawlence, commencing meetings again in October, perfected the work of organizing a Church of 37 members, Nov. 2, with local elders and clerk. They still continued their work until about 50 were united with the Church, when on the 23d of December a legal organization was perfected in accordance with the laws of Michi- gan, to hold church property. A deed from Mr. Roeser of their lot was received. The Church with all its changes has ever re- tained about its usual number of members, its present number being 48 and the greatest number it has had 67. In the spring of 1880 this society bought one-half lot more, adjoining the original property, on the north of Mr. Roesers' land, thus giving them two and one-half lots in the township.


The Methodist Episcopal Church .- The M. E. Society was or- ganized in this township in 1846. In 1874 the present church was erected at a cost of $3,000, the energy of the Rev. Mr. Spar- ling contributing much to its satisfactory completion. The society claims a membership of 60 persons, with the Rev. J. B. Withey as pastor in charge.


PURCHASERS OF THE LANDS.


The early buyers of the township lands became permanent set- tlers in the greater number of instances. The names of those who purchased their lands from the general Government are as follows:
