Ira J. Kellogg's grandfather on his mother's side, Pliney Jennings, was a native of Cornwall, Conn., where he was born June 26, 1793. He was united in marriage Janu- ary 12, 1815, to Mary Marsh, who was born in Litchfield county, Conn., March 8. 1799.
But two children are recorded as having been born to them. Ira Jennings, for whom our subject was named, and his mother. Sophronia. Other data concerning her is given elsewhere.
Ira J. Kellogg received his early education in the district school, but being dependent upon his own efforts for a livelihood, at the age of eighteen years he went to work as a farm hand; this he followed up summers. until after the years of his majority. His first business venture was as a traveling salesman for sewing machines and organs. He managed to keep things coming his way until he accepted a position as a clerk in a general store of Albert L. Forbes, of Stock- bridge. After two years in Mr. Forbes' em- ployment his accumulations were sufficient to warrant him taking to himself a life part- ner. January 1, 1873. he was united in mar-

riage to Miss Marie, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Joshua Whitney of the Township of Stockbridge. Mr. Whitney was an old resi- dent, a prosperous farmer, and a good citi- zen.
To Mr. and Mrs. Kellogg have been born two daughters : Anna L. Miss Anna is at present a teacher in the Jackson city public schools, a work for which she is eminently qualified. She is a member of the alumni of Alma College, Mich., class of 1894; Mabel W., a graduate of Kalamazoo College, class of 1904. Miss Mabel was married June 8, 1905, to E. R. Young of Jackson.
Mr. and Mrs. Kellogg and Anna are mem- bers of the Baptist church and are among the aggressive workers in the cause of re- ligion. Mabel cast her lot with the Presby- terian society, and is recognized as one of the church workers.
After marriage, Mr. Kellogg started out anew in business for himself, locating in Owosso. Opening up a place of business he dealt in sewing machines and organs for about two years, closed out and moved to Durand, then little more than a burg, opened the first general store in the place, and for six years carried on a successful business in the town. The opportunity came, and he disposed of his interests at Durand, returned to his old home town at Stockbridge, May 3, 1893, bought out his former employer, built a large brick store and did a thriving busi- ness. In addition to his general store, he bought and sold grain, produce, and wool. In 1884 he erected a fine dwelling, which he disposed of recently, the store property he still owns. His place of business was head- quarters for anything in his line, and having established a reputation for fair dealing, each year added to his worldly accumulations. In other words he met with success. In the fall of 1896, as he puts it, he "got mixed up in politics," was nominated for Register of
Deeds, was elected and held the office for a term of two years, making a very efficient and painstaking officer. Mr. Kellogg has been a lifelong advocate of the principles of the Republican party, was proud of its war record, but when he saw his party bow down before corporations, trusts and the money power of the country, he lined up with the opposition, and after the smoke of the vari- ous political battles that followed had been cleared away, he found himself in the ranks of the Democracy, where he stands today. After retiring from office he purchased a one-half interest in the Mason City Carriage Works, and later bought out his partner, and now owns and controls the entire plant, which turns out an average of about three hundred vehicles of various kinds annually. The following description of the plant will give the reader something of an idea of the extent of the business : Office, frame build- ing, shingle roof, one story, 14x24 feet ; blacksmith shop, brick building, gravel and tar roof, one story, 40x70 feet ; store room, brick building, gravel and tar roof, two story. 20x50 feet ; engine and boiler room, brick building, gravel and tar roof, one story, 20x 20 feet ; machinery building, brick, tin roof, two story, 30x58 feet ; repository, frame, tin roof, two story, 20x60 feet ; store and crating room, two story frame, shingle roof, 24×60 feet ; dry kiln, two sides brick, two sides frame, tin roof, 12x20 feet.
The above buildings are in good repair, and by figuring you will find they contain more than 17,500 feet of floor space. The property is described as being the entire block 5. Griffin's addition, Mason. The office is divided into two rooms and provided with two outside doors and eight windows. There are desks, chairs, Detroit fire-proof safe, Shannon file case, etc. In the smith shop there are six forges, all connected with power blower, two hand blowers, flexible

Mr. Kellogg is among Mason's most re- spected citizens. The uprightness of his life as exemplified in his daily Christian char- acter has won for him universal regard and esteem. Financially, he is on "easy street." The family have a summer cottage at Pleas- ant Lake, where they spend much of their time during the summer months, while his new and commodious dwelling is one of Mason city's pleasant homes.
HISTORY OF THE METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH IN MASON, MICH.
Methodism dates its beginning in Mason in the year 1839. In that year the first Methodist sermon in this vicinity was preached by Rev. Jackson, who visited the Village of Mason, which at that time con- sisted of only about five families. Services were held in the small schoolhouse. Regu- lar preaching services were established for each two weeks and the Mason appointment formed a part of what was then known as the "Dexter Mission."
In the conference year of 1843-4 a small class was organized with R. Scarrett, as leader. Mason Methodism was at first of slow growth, so that when in 1853 the class was re-organized it consisted of only seven members.
Beginning with about the year 1845, Ma- son was the head of what was known as the
In September, 1855, the Michigan Con- ference was divided; and by such division the Detroit Conference was formed of such territory as lay east of the principal meridian line, thus Dansville and Unadilla were cut off from the Mason circuit. The "Mason Circuit" was then known as the appoint- ments at Mason, Leslie and Okemos, and was still continued as a two weeks circuit, with Rev. E. Klump as preacher in charge.
There was no house of worship in Mason prior to the year 1854, when the present church site was purchased, and plans were formulated for the erection of a house of worship, which was completed and dedi- cated in the summer of 1855. This was a wooden structure, costing the sum of $2,000 and fronted to the south upon the present church site.
On the evening of July 4, 1865, this edi- fice was struck by lightning and was burned, together with organ, books, furniture, etc.
Being somewhat disheartened by such calamity no effect was put forth for rebuild- ing, until the winter of 1867, when a sub- scription was raised of about $3,500 for a new church edifice, and the corner stone of the new and present brick structure was laid. with Masonic ceremonies by the Rev. A. P. Mead of Jackson, in April, 1867.
The basement was completed and dedi- cated March 1, 1868. The entire building was completed and dedicated in 1872, at a cost of about $6,725.
In the year 1892 the Epworth League room was completed at a cost of about $1,000.

PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH.
The Presbyterian church of Mason was organized January 15, 1859, by a committee from Marshall Presbytery, and consisted of seven persons : Hiram Bristol, Nancy Bristol, Allen Rowe, Elizabeth Rowe, Sally Ann Rowe, Mary F. Rhea and Amanda Barnes. Of these seven, only Elizabeth Rowe and Amanda Barnes are still alive.
For a few months, Rev. Henry Root sup- plied the pulpit, and in January, 1860, Rev. Hosea Kittredge was called to be the first pastor. He resigned January, 1867, and in July, 1868, Rev. George Barlow succeeded him. Service had been held in the old court- house, the Methodist church and in the (then) new brick courthouse. Mr. Barlow's first work was to build a church, and this was done in the year 1868 and 1869. It was

a wooden building and stood on Oak street, between B and C streets. It was dedicated October 3d, 1869. Mr. Barlow remained eleven years, when he resigned and was fol- lowed by Rev. Evart Vander Hart, who in turn was succeeded by Rev. James Barnet. In 1883 Rev. C. D. Ellis filled the pulpit, and remained until 1886, when Rev. J. D. Barnes came, and in 1892 Rev. J. Clizbe be- came pastor. He resigned to take a profes- sorship in Alma College, and in September, 1897, Rev. A. S. Zimmerman was installed. Under his leading, the new stone church standing on Maple street was built, and dedicated April 2, 1901.

HISTORICAL SKETCH.
The First Baptist church of Mason was organized in 1839 with the following mem- bers: Wright Horton and Eliza Ann, his wife: Miss Yost (afterwards Mrs. Chas. Gray), Mrs. Dunn and her son, Samuel, and Mrs. G. W. Shafer.
The church was organized under the di- rection of Elder David Hendee, of Jack- son county, a pioneer minister and promi- nent organizer. The first meetings were held in the old school house; also a short time in the Methodist church : later the place of meeting was changed to the court house. Among the early pastors were Revs. E. K. Grout, Hiram Fuller. Wilder, Robertson, Wm. Putnam, P. P. Farnum, L. E. Spaf- ford, Daniel Baldwin. In 1864 the present frame church was built, being dedicated in November of the following year. Extensive improvements, however, have greatly changed the appearance and usefulness of
580
PAST AND PRESENT
the building. In 1873, under the pastoral care of P. P. Farnum, the frame building was raised and a brick basement placed un- derneath. In the fall of 1875 the present baptistry was put in the church. In 1894, with Rev. H. W. Powell as pastor, the pres- ent covered entrance was added to the church building.
The church itself has experienced many gracious revivals ; foremost among them was that of the winter of 1875-76, with Rev. J. L. DeLand as stated supply, when there were 45 additions to the church by baptism. The following figures, at periods of about five
years, will indicate the steady growth of the church : Membership in 1867, 87; 1870, IIO; 1875, 144; 1881, 176; 1885, 213; 1890. 236; 1895, 240; 1900, 253; June I, 1900, 275. The steady growth of the church has been marked also by a steady growth in the Bible school, which for the past eighteen years has been superintended by Bro. A. J. Hall.
Under the present pastorate, which covers a period of nearly seven years, seventy-two have been added to the membership of the church, fifty of these by baptism.
