Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Michigan, Vol. 3: Illustrated Mr. Johnson's education was acquired in the public schools of New York, and his business career began in 1865, at the age of eighteen. He was employed in the counting room Of a large New York tobacco manu factory until 1871, and that experience was followed by his connection with a large toy manufacturing concern in New York. In 1873 he was given an interest in the latter business and continued with the house until 1877. Failing health terminated his career as a toy manufacturer in New York city. Otherwise he might probably have continued in business in the eastern metropolis throughout his active years; For recuperation he went to Denver, Colorado, where he lived several years. In 1879 he began manufacturing and handling toys and kindred lines of goods in Denver, where his enterprise continued 011 a modest scale until 1884. In that year he located in Detroit, which has since been his permanent home. In Detroit Mr. Johnson became manager of the Detroit Knitting and Corset Works, and directed the business management of. That concern until 1887. In the meantime, in 1886, Mr. Johnson had become associated with Homer Pennock and William Penberthy, three men who organized and incorporated the Penberthy Injector Company for the purpose of manufacturing an improved form of steam injector invented by Mr. Pen berthy. Of the new company Mr. Johnson became secretary and treas urer. The Penberthy injector was by all odds superior to anything at the time in use, but the three associates had only moderate capital, and they proceeded cautiously with investment in plant and machinery, but exploited the sale and distribution of the product most vigorously. In a few years the Penberthy Injector had an established reputation as a mechanical appliance, and the factory at Detroit grew in proportion. Since that time it has become the largest concern of its kind in the world, and supplies all markets with the Penberthy Injector and other steam appliances. Its plant at Detroit occupies several acres of ground, with a large branch situated at Windsor, Canada. For fifteen years Mr. Johnson was presi dent and general manager of the plant and company, and to his manage ment during that period has been due much of the success of the enter prise. His son, Homer S. Johnson, who succeeded him as manager, has continued in that position ever since with wonderful success.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Michigan The twofold phase of our government, state and federal, is familiar to us all. The desirability of a knowledge of the principles and institutions of state concern, as distinguished from those of a national character, is now quite generally admitted. Indeed, it is thought that a familiarity with the institutions common to our townships, counties, and the state, should precede the study of the more distant and complex institutions of the general government. It is like wise generally believed that in the study of history the analogy holds true, and that the youth, before he is required to learn and comprehend the great national and world wide movements of history, should be told the story of his own state. One of the essential equipments for good citizenship is a knowledge of that noble band of men and women who, as pioneers, felled the forests, made the homesteads, organ ized the townships and the counties, and laid the foundations of the commonwealth. With a thorough knowledge of the history of the state and the principles of its government, the youth is at least equipped to discharge intelligently those civic duties with which he is most intimately connected, while a desire for a knowledge of history and government in their higher and broader relations is also fostered. It is to fulfill this mission in Michigan that this little book has been prepared. It is dedicated to the boys and girls of Michigan, as it was inspired by the belief that their lives would reflect a higher standard of civic virtue if lived with an intimate acquaintance with those patriots and statesmen whose efforts have made for the state an honorable fame.

Book Synopsis Michigan, Vol. 3 by : Henry M. Utley
Download or read book Michigan, Vol. 3 written by Henry M. Utley and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-13 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Michigan, Vol. 3: As a Province, Territory and State, the Twenty-Sixth Member of the Federal Union This Volume embraces the history of "Michigan as a State" from 1835 to 1865. In the beginning of this period there was an overlap between the Territory and the State, but the real history of Michigan as a State must begin from the adoption of the State Constitution and the organization of the State government, November, 1835. From that date until January 26, 1837, the government was dual. This volume has been compiled almost entirely from official and semi-official sources: - from the proceedings of the legislatures, from the public documents printed by the authority of the State, from messages of Governors and reports of State officials, and also from the public documents printed by the Congress of the United States. In addition to these the "Collections" of the Pioneer and Historical Society of Michigan published under State auspices, have been freely drawn upon; credit being usually given, where such material has been used. The material of existing histories of the State has not been used at all, except in a few instances where opinions on some point have been cited from Justices Cooley or Campbell, on account of the great weight justly due to those eminent jurists. It has been the belief of the writer that in compiling the history of a free, representative Commonwealth, there is no more certain and legitimate way of arriving at the movements of public sentiment among the people, or to ascertain the social or political aims and ideals of the population, than to study the laws and public documents of the legislatures and public officials. They will be found a complete reflex of the thoughts, purposes, aspirations and demands of the masses of the electors.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Michigan, Vol. 2 James Frederick Joy. The distinction of having been the prime factor in the building of more than sixteen hundred miles of railroad in Michigan alone is of itself sufficient to make the name of James F. Joy one of the most significant in the history of this state. From 1836 until his death in 1896, Mr. Joy was a resident of the city of Detroit. Beginning his career there as a struggling young attorney, he rose to be one of the foremost business men of the United States, a recognized authority on finance, and one of the ablest railroad managers of the middle west. His achievements both in his profession and in practical affairs is remarkable. With his great executive ability he combined attributes of character which marked him as one of the most distinguished of Michigan's citizens. It has been said of him that he was too honest to be politic, too conscientious to be sycophantic and that his practice of all times telling the truth often made enemies of small-minded men, but brought him the friendship, never violated, of the greatest individuals of his time. James Frederick Joy was born at Durham, New Hampshire, December 2, 1810, a son of James and Sarah (Pickering) Joy. His father was a blacksmith by trade, and at Durham manufactured scythes and also engaged in ship building. The first ancestor of the name was Thomas Joy, who left England about 1632, locating at Boston. The town records show him to have been a landholder at Boston in 1636. James Joy, the father, was a man of strong character, of much enterprise and originality, was a Federalist in politics, a Calvinist in religion, and a leader in both religious and civil life in his community. His character and example were influential in the lives of his children, and from him the great railroad builder and lawyer inherited some of his best native traits. The common schools of New England introduced James Frederick Joy to a knowledge of life, and he completed his education in an academy, a short distance from his home. He then took up teaching and with some assistance from his father finally entered upon a collegiate course, graduating at the head of his class at Dartmouth College, with the degree of Bachelor of Arts. From Dartmouth he went to Harvard College, and took up the study of law. His finances did not allow him to continue until graduation, and he supplemented his income by teaching in the academy at Pittfield, Massachusetts, and for a year as a tutor in Dartmouth College. Resuming his studies at Harvard, he completed the course within a year and was admitted to the bar at Boston. In September, 1836, Mr. Joy arrived at Detroit, and entered the law office of Hon. Augustus S. Porter, later United States senator from Michigan. In 1837 he opened a law office of his own, and became associated in practice with George F. Porter, who had a large acquaintance with prominent moneyed interests in this state and elsewhere. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
