Description
Marquette, S. S. Marie and St. Ignace all have their gold, silver, iron or some other kinds of mines and not to be behind the times, Newberry had to have one, and she's got it too. Recent discoveries show that a deposit of iron lies about three miles north of the village on land owned by the DM&M Land Co.
