Some claim th e f irstcross was placed there by FatherMarquette. The village has acommanding view of th e lake.

Former Convent Si:teIndian tribes followed this highpoint of land, an d below b a n ~an d along its flat to p bmlt therrsettlements.Cross Village, in 1855, becameth e site of St. Francis Convent,established by Father Weikamp.The convent thrived an d suppliedth e community with lumber an dfood an d clothing. Th e buildingswere destroyed in the early 1900's.Father Weikamp's tomb is nowa shrine open to the public.

Called L'Arbre CrocheAlong this drive, a huge crook.ed tree was such a prominentlandmark that th e entire areafrom Little Traverse Bay to Stur-. geon Ba y was known as L'ArbreCroche (Fr.

ONE OF THE nation's mostexclusive summer resorts ison a finger of land" jutting fromthe mainland into Little TraverseBa y at Harbor Springs. Here, atHarbor Point, some of th e oldestan d best-known families in Am -erica have their summer residences.With one side of the peninsulafronting on the bay proper an dthe other facing th e deepest natural harbor on th e Great Lakes,Harbor Point is ideally situatedfor perfect summer climate.

Sold for $100In 1855, Harbor Point was soldto a Catholic priest, Father JohnWeikamp, for $100, as th e location fo r a mission an d convent.The area wa s no t sufficient, how-ever, an d th e establishment wasmoved to Cross Village.At the extreme en d of the point!s a Coast Guard lighthouse whosegreen light can be seen nightlyfo r miles.

Th e homes on Harbor Pointar e palatial. In addition to private residences ar e a club an dnearby are several private clubs.The Harbor Point Associationcontrols th e entire section to insure privacy.

No Autos AllowedNo automobiles ar e allowed onHarbor Point although visitorsare no t restrained from bicyclingon its paths or riding in one ofthe horse-drawn carriages whichcover its length.World travelers contend that' the bay area around Harbor Potntis rivaled only by the famousBa y of Naples.

!Buffing Did It 'Petoskey Stones'Went to MarketM ANY TOURISTS, browsing. in gift shops in the north thisseason will pause before greyish,polished stones, their surfacesmarked with shell-like rings.'They are in various sizes, some:small, some large, some cu t in:shapes of hearts and crosses.

These are "Petoskey . Stones,"so called because of the hugenumbers found in the Little Traverse Bay area years ago.

Th e Petoskey Stone is a fossilhundreds of thousands of yearsold and the small rings whichgive it such distinction are theremains ol fpre - historiclife - principally marinel i fe- that lived in the water s in thissection.Th e stone isa limestone-like material whichlying dr y on a beach, a p p e a r ~

silvery. Indians discovered thatwhen these were dipped in waterthey .darkened and displayed thefossil patterns prominently.Due to the constant poundingof the water, th e stones werewashed to the beach in roundform, some flat. A few heavierspecimens, almost chunky, havebeen discovered. Constant rubbing by hand made the stonesshine.

Wheel Is BetterBy the bushel baskets thesewere gathered in ,th e ol d days

an d it was discovered that, withproper burnishing on a grindingwheel, they could be made to retain th e identical luster theyachieved when wet.

These ar e the stones offeredfor sale in the area. Craftsmenlearned that the stone could bedrilled an d cut. The d'iscoveryresulted odd-SJhaped stonescoming from th e wheels. Heartshaped stones were produced tohang on gold neck chains. Crosses,too, were produced.Number DiminishingDuring the past several years,however, the quantity of Petoskey

Stones found on beaches has diminished. Although a few ma y bediscovered by watchful wanderers they do no t exist in anythinglike their former numbers.Pocket pieces, bracelet charmspaper weights and small o r n a ~ments are thei,r chief uses.

Island ONE OF THE STRANGEST dramas in Michigan's long an d colorfulhistory took pl ace on Beaver Island, th e largest of th e isles in th eBeaver Archipelago in upper Lake Michigan an d no w a part of Charlevoix County (See Map).IT WAS ON THIS Island on July 8, 1850 that Ja mes J. Strang wa scrowned King to b e ~ i n a reign that is without parallel in Americanhistory.TH E STRANGE STORY BEGAN in 1847 when Strang an a fourcompanions went to Beaver Island from Voree, Wis., headquarters ofth e eastern branch of the Mormons. This sco uting party sought theisland as a place to li ve an d worship without interference. Theycoveted its rich fishmg waters and its abundance of game an d Strangdreamed of empire. Returning to Voree, he summoned his followersto visit the ne w land. As winter roared its wa y across the big lakeit locked on th e island a Mormon population of 18; five me n an d 13women an d children. Th e following winter the Mormons numbered62, of which 17 were men.

resented th e in - trusion in theseabundant waters. King Strang ruledwith an iron hand. He laid ou t thetown of St . James, still th e only mu-nicipality on th e island. He forbadethe use of liquor, tobacco an d tea.He ordered hi s followers to pa y atithe of all they received or pro-duced or and failure to pa ywa s punishable flogging.

KING STRANG TOLD hi s followers he ha d received divine in structions to practice polygamy an d he took several wives an d orderedhis folfowers to do likewise. He ordered women on th e island to discard long skirts and wear knee-length skirts or bloomers.His tyrannical attitude brought open re bellion . He was arrested byth e Federal Government. Charges included the theft of timber, tampering with the mails and counterfeiting money. No witness couldbe found to testify against him in St . James and the trial wa s takento Detroit.

KING STRANG'S abuse of his.subjects grew with hi s power.He sent to the whipping post sme n whose wives wer e recalcitrant; he harried them in business; he snubbed th em sociallyand termed them outcasts. Theha tred of fishermen an d traderson opposite c0asts was fanned to white heat by h is arbitraryrulings.

ON JUNE 16, 1856, th e UnitedStates Revenue Cu tte r Michiganarrived at St. James. KingStrang was invited to supper withthe captain.
