We were three miles from any white settlers, but we had plenty of Indians. Where the city of Flint now stands, it was then all a dense wilderness, and when the town of Atlas was organized, forty years ago, we had seventeen votes all told. The county of Genesee has now twelve flourishing villages besides the city of Flint, which has a population of about eleven thousand."
