The four items listed are diverse in nature. One is a genealogy article by Cecile Keister in the Detroit publication. The other three are items which document area history. An 1893 portfolio of 200 plates documents the early history of Lowell, Michigan. A Sparta Methodist Church history documents one hundred years of that organization from 1852 to 1952. Finally, Loraine Pratt Imman's 1914 publication of tributes to Abraham Lincoln, from the Grand Rapids Federation of Women's Clubs, is included here.
